Richardson Trying Again: A lawyer acting for former Arkansas coach Nolan Richardson filed an appeal to the verdict that rejected that Arkansas wrongfully fired Richardson based on racial grounds and violated his First Amendment rights. Richardson and his law team contend that athletic director Frank Broyles fired the coach after a sequence of events that included Richardson publicly criticizing the university for racially discriminatory practices. Specifically, he said football coach Houston Nutt, who is white, received better treatment, including through his contract with the university. The appeals court will likely need several months to consider the case before reaching a decision. [6/14/05]
