Coach Beard talked about...
making Little Rock like Gonzaga or Wichita State at the Tip-In Club lunch. That had been my wife's point- Why not build "his" program right here in Central Arkansas rather than taking over someone else's program that already has a "name". I explained there were millions ($) of reasons for him to go to a bigger program. Still, it seemed clear his goal at this moment is to make us a big time program. Will that change when big time offers come his way? We'll have to wait and see.

Very interesting point. Since he was basically given a clean blackboard to work with, and obviously had immediate success in recruiting to Little Rock, making Little Rock "his" program is not out of the question. And, he is realtively geographically close to his daughters here. The answer to these questions will be had when and if a big money offer comes his way.
