UT Longhorns vs. Razorbacks Up to the minute news about the Texas Longhorns from GoTeamsGo. We'll find the latest Texas Longhorns news so you can chat about here. Quote: Razorbacks, Texas Longhorns renew old rivalry
Baxter Bulletin, AR - Dec 20, 2006
AUSTIN, Texas — Arkansas and Texas renew a basketball rivalry as bygone as the defunct Southwest Conference which housed both programs plus the Houston Cougars as its basketball flagships.
Those were the days of Eddie and Abe, when Eddie Sutton coached Arkansas while the late Abe Lemons coached Texas, followed by times sometimes even more spirited when Nolan Richardson coached Arkansas and Tom, ("Sweet Tom," Richardson called him) Penders piloted Texas.
That fabled foursome are a part of an Arkansas-Texas history that fifth-year Arkansas coach Stan Heath and ninth-year Texas coach Rick Barnes know doesn't cross the minds of those they coach in tonight's 8 p.m. ESPN2 nationally televised game at Texas' Erwin Center.
"The current players," Barnes said, "don't understand what you are talking about."
