When the old timers who played college football gather, eventually talk will center on who among them could have played in today’s game that features greater speed and size.
A handful of names surface from the different eras of Arkansas football. Loyd Phillips is always included.
Phillips passed Sunday at age 75, a victim of blood clots in his legs, partly the result of injuries sustained to an ankle during a brief career in the NFL. Phillips was a two-time All-American and three-year starter (1964-66) for the Razorbacks. He became ill last week because of a stroke.
