In March, rumors began to swirl that Anderson would pursue a job after the season at the University of Arkansas, where he spent 17 years as an assistant coach to Nolan Richardson. Anderson quickly dismissed the talk, telling Columbia Tribune beat writer Steve Walentik he planned to coach at Missouri "for a long time, retire here." [2] However, later in the month, Anderson accepted a job at Arkansas.[3] Missouri subsequently hired Frank Haith, who finished 43-69 in ACC play as the head coach at Miami from 2004 to 2011.
