After the Razorbacks fell to 0-3 in Southeastern Conference play with a home loss to eighth-ranked Florida, coach John Calipari is in the midst of his worst league season since his first year of collegiate coaching, period, way back in 1988-89.
But, see, that smell emitting from the Natural State is not the Arkansas basketball team. It’s the Hamlet-like madness and rage of the Razorbacks’ fan base. Arkansas could absolutely still qualify for the NCAA Tournament, but the question as to whether that’s even enough to satiate a fan base already eager to send the mob is another issue.
