Billy Richmond serving as an example for Arkansas basketball ahead of Winthrop game

FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas men’s basketball coach John Calipari had a question when he entered the Bud Walton Arena media room following the No. 21 Razorbacks’ 79-75 win over Samford on Friday. He asked his audience the same question during his weekly radio show at Sassy’s Babeque and Grille on Monday.

“What was the biggest reason we won that game?” Calipari asked Monday. “It was Billy.”

Richmond was Arkansas’ spark plug in its closer-than-expected win Friday, and he may need to continue to be that when the Razorbacks host Winthrop at 7 p.
