Bio
Loyd Phillips played defensive tackle for Arkansas at 230 pounds, was all-conference three times and All-America twice. He was unanimous All-America in 1966 and won the Outland Trophy as the nation's best interior lineman. The Hogs won a share of the 1964 national title and during his era UA had a 29-3 record. The Chicago Bears drafted him, but an injury cut short any pro football career. Phillips went back to school and obtained a master's degree in education. He served as vice-principal at junior and senior high schools in Arkansas. The Phillips family has been involved in Arkansas activities.
