65. Like Father, Like Son: Ron & Ronnie Brewer

from The Hog Pod with Bo Mattingly

They're two of the best players to come through the Razorback basketball program. And they just so happen to be father and son. In fact, despite playing decades apart, Ron and Ronnie Brewer right next to each other on Arkansas' all-time scoring list, separated by just 24 points. They're also the first father-son duo to play at the same school and for the same NBA team in basketball history. One of the Triplets, Ron helped lead Eddie Sutton's Razorback teams to new heights, including as the top scorer on the 1978 Final Four team. And 28 years later, it was Ronnie's turn to be the leading scorer on an NCAA Tournament team. What was it like to grow up as a standout basketball player who just so happened to be the son of an Arkansas legend? Their relationship is just as much about life off the court, including a focus on giving back to the community through the Ronnie Brewer Foundation. It's part of what makes the two of them stand out, and what makes their bond as father and son so strong to this day.
