Arkansas athletic director Jeff Long is “working hard” in hopes of bringing Anderson back to the school where he was an assistant for 17 years under Nolan Richardson, a person familiar with the situation said Wednesday.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity because negotiations are still ongoing.

The person said “it’s not a done deal yet, but it’s getting close.”
