Thursday's news conference was supposed to be about Wes Flanigan. But when your name is Flanigan, it will always be a family affair.
That includes his wife, Katrina, and their sons, brothers, cousins, uncles and aunts. It includes friends, too.
Second only to Wes and his wife, it was about Al and Joan Flanigan, who are more than just the first couple of Arkansas high school basketball.
They are the parents who loved their children unconditionally but with a tough, fair love that taught their children there is no easy road. You want something, work for it.
