As the movie Greater continues to play in theaters, it seems this might be a good time to explain why only two Arkansas Razorback football jerseys have been retired.
It was the longtime policy of the University of Arkansas athletic department to not retire jerseys, but Jeff Long wisely has found a way to honor numerous men and women who were instrumental in the history of the Razorbacks.
He hangs banners with their names from the rafters of the appropriate venue.
The first jersey, No. 12, was retired to honor Clyde "Smackover" Scott who played for the Razorbacks from 1946-49, rushing for 1,463 yards in his career, averaging 7 yards per carry.
