Announced today on Hogwired.com, Stan Heath will not return for the 2007 season as the head coach of basketball for the Arkansas Razorbacks. Frank Broyles informed Heath of his decision at a meeting today:

“The decision to make a coaching change was difficult due to the respect I have for Stan Heath,” Broyles said. “He represented the University of Arkansas with professionalism and integrity. I appreciate Coach Heath’s efforts and his contributions to the program. However, in my professional judgment, it is best that the program move forward under new leadership in our efforts to return Razorback Basketball to national prominence and to compete consistently and successfully at the very highest levels.”
