FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas defensive coordinator Willy Robinson, who was kept overnight for tests and treatment at Washington Regional Medical Center, will not coach in tonight's game against Troy.

The University of Arkansas announced in a news release prior to kickoff on Saturday that Robinson was being treated for an infection and is resting comfortably.

Robinson, 53, was rushed by ambulance to the hospital late Friday morning after complaining of fever and headaches and spent the night at Washington Regional.

I have been critical of Willy and his defensive schemes, but I truly hope he is okay and will keep him in my prayers as well. He is an excellent human being and I know the kids truly enjoy playing for him. Hurry back Willy!
