HOT SPRINGS -- Nolan Richardson will again leave his mark at Walton Arena.
The University of Arkansas Board of Trustees voted Thursday during their regular meeting to name the Razorbacks' home court in Fayetteville after the coach who led the university to its only NCAA men's basketball title.
"That's wonderful. I certainly am honored," Richardson, 77, told the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette by phone Thursday.
Trustees also approved without dissent Thursday a resolution for Arkansas Chancellor Joe Steinmetz and Athletic Director Hunter Yurachek to study a way to honor former coach Eddie Sutton in a manner to be determined later.
