Nobody did it 'bettah' than Broyles

FAYETTEVILLE -- Even the women's track and field coach could tell a Frank Broyles anecdote if addressing today's 2 p.m. public celebration of life at Walton Arena for the Arkansas Razorbacks' football coach and men's athletic director.

The University of Arkansas, Fayetteville's head football coach from 1958-76 and athletic director from 1973-2007, Broyles died last Monday at 92.

They limited today's speakers to five. Good thing.

Reynolds Razorback Stadium might overflow if all told a tale there of Frank Broyles.

Lance Harter would be among them.

The then-Lady Razorbacks program was led by since retired women's athletic director Bev Lewis when she hired Harter 27 years ago to succeed herself as track coach.
