But the long Broyles-Harrod friendship makes one wonder whether the problem runs deeper. But athletic department control remains an issue worth exploring. Broyles has done amazing things with Arkansas's sports in spite of a limited budget. He's building a football stadium to rival any in the SEC with the exception of Tennessee's. But inside the department, much goes wanting.
Offices rely heavily on student help.
Key personnel include hangers-on who do little more than Broyles' bidding. It's as if Broyles wants a mansion with no bathrooms. He'll settle for a portapotty in the backyard. It might stink a little, and a few folks might notice, but it does the job, while the house looks great to everyone who drives by. But Arkansas's problems are Arkansas's to clean up.
