Sam Pittman

Pulaski Academy's Mason Schueck called the offer to commit to Arkansas as a preferred walk-on a "dream come true." In fact, this lifelong Razorback fan and 6'2" linebacker thought someone was pulling a prank on him. "There was a second where I thought somebody's got to be joking with me,"...

Arkansas OL coach Brad Davis recently left Fayetteville to take the same job on LSU’s coaching staff. That left coach Sam Pittman with a key opening on his staff heading into the 2021 season. And, now, it seems he is nearing a hire. Per FootballScoop, Pittman is close to bringing...

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Arkansas Razorbacks head football coach Sam Pittman's contract has been reset, the university confirmed to 40/29 Tuesday.

Will Sam Pittman be sticking around Arkansas longer than his original contract called for in Fayetteville?. At least it looks that way on paper as the Razorbacks have made the decision to “reset” Pittman’s contract, which essentially means the program has given its head coach a one-year contract extension. Pittman’s contract at Arkansas now runs through the 2025 football season.
