Tough Morning: Stephen A. Smith Had To Apologize After He Declared Nolan Richardson Dead While On TV (He's Very Much Alive)

Good to know somewhere that Nolan Richardson and Pete Gillen are smiling down on us: 

I get that people slip up words while talking on TV, it's easy to do. What's not easy to do is declare someone dead. That's something I promise I'll never do. That's especially true when Nolan Richardson is still around the Arkansas program. 

Even better what's Seth Greenberg doing here? You know Nolan Richardson is alive. You gotta speak up and cut off Stephen A. as impossible as that is. You can't go silent and stunned face. Makes the apology even funnier though

Well I don't think you knew if you said late and then rest his soul. That's doubling down! The man is rattled right now. He's fighting LeBron, he's screaming incorrectly about college basketball at all times and now he's declaring Nolan Richardson dead. Tough morning. Tougher morning for Arkansas fans who now had to deal with this news and probably took a half second to look it up.
