(AP Photo/Charlie Neibergall) "He tried calling me, got a couple texts already," Musselman said. "Before we hit the plane I’ll try to call John.

You know, he’s been texting me even drills. Like he wanted our guys to get a putter out and hit a ball into a cup. We haven’t tried it yet, luckily we’ve been making foul shots.

But I know the state of Arkansas is on fire right now and I know John Daly’s pretty pumped up too." After the win, the 58-year-old coach jumped onto the press table, ripped off his red polo shirt and waved it over his head.
