Mike Anderson (basketball)
Mike Anderson (born December 12, 1959) is the current head basketball coach for the University of Arkansas Razorbacks. He is a former assistant coach under Nolan Richardson at Arkansas and is best known for using his up-tempo "The Fastest 40 Minutes in Basketball" to rebuild the basketball programs at both the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) and the University of Missouri. His career record is 200–98. He has the highest winning percentage (.661) for any head coach at the University of Missouri with at least a three-year tenure, including Norm Stewart's .656. Anderson was the fastest coach to reach 100 wins in school history, and is one of only two head coaches (Frank Haith being the other) in the history of Missouri Tiger basketball to win 30 games in one season.
