    Also: seriously, an open-air park? I know they had one before the Humpdome, but I guess I expected them to go with some kind of roof.

     

     

    They said that a retractable roof was going to cost too much money, but if you're building a new stadium do it right.

    Ironically, the last basketball coach Frank Broyles hires as Arkansas' athletics director will come from the same school, Creighton, from which he hired his first.

     

    The University of Arkansas plans to announce Dana Altman as its new basketball coach this afternoon, according to sources. Eddie Sutton, whom Broyles hired in 1974 also coached at Creighton prior to reviving Razorback basketball.

     

    Altman, 48, comes to Arkansas from Creighton, a Missouri Valley Conference school, after spending 13 years as the Omaha, Neb.-based private school's head basketball coach where he compiled a 260-141 record. Altman is 343-208 as a Division I head coach with eight NCAA Tournament appearances at Creighton and Kansas State.

     

    Altman replaces Stan Heath, who was fired March 26, after a week long search by UA athletics director Frank Broyles, which touched on some of the bigger names in college basketball. While it is unknown how many coaches were offered the job, Arkansas showed interest in Texas A&M's Billy Gillispie, Kansas' Bill Self, Memphis' John Calipari and Southern California's Tim Floyd before striking a deal with Altman Sunday night, according to sources.

    one song

    Thinking outrageously I write in cursive

    I hide in my bed with the lights on the floor

    Wearing three layers of coats and leg warmers

    I see my own breath on the face of the door

     

    Oh I am not quite sleeping

    Oh I am fast in bed

    There on the wall in the bedroom creeping

    I see a wasp with her wings outstretched

     

    North of Savanna we swim in the palisades

    I come out wearing my brother's red hat

    There on his shoulder my best friend is bit seven times

    He runs washing his face in his hands

     

    Oh how I meant to tease him

    Oh how I meant no harm

    Touching his back with my hand I kiss him

    I see the wasp on the length of my arm

     

    Oh great sights upon this state! Hallelu-

    Wonders bright, and rivers, lake. Hallelu-

    Trail of Tears and Horseshoe Lake. Hallelu-

    trusting things beyond mistake. Hallelu-

     

    We were in love. We were in love.

    Palisades! Palisades! Palisades

    I can wait. I can wait.

     

    Lamb of God, we soudn the horn.

    Hallelujah!

    To us your ghost is born.

    Hallelu-

     

    I can't explain the state that I'm in

    The state of my heart, he was my best friend

    Into the car, from the back seat

    Oh admiration in falling asleep

    All of my powers, day after day

    I can tell you, we swaggered and swayed

    Deep in the tower, the prairies below

    I can tell you, the telling gets old

    Terrible sting and terrible storm

    I can tell you the day we were born

    My friend is gone, he ran away

    I can tell you, I love him each day

    Though we have sparred, wrestled and raged

    I can tell you I love him each day

    Terrible sting, terrible storm

    I can tell you...
