LAS VEGAS — After Arkansas beat top-seeded Kansas in the Round of 32, Razorbacks head coach Eric Musselman ripped his shirt off and turned to the fans in celebration. That win, as an eight seed, made it the second straight year Arkansas took down a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament.
Dan Hurley and the fourth-seeded Huskies will have work cut out for them in order to keep Musselman’s shirt on Thursday.
“It happened (when I was coaching) at Nevada, I don’t know how or why. I was not planning on doing it the other night, but one of our hosts was kind of begging me, even after the first game. He was one of the guys that walked us around,” Musselman said of his propensity for the shirtless celebration.
