Arkansas’ coaching search took a major turn Tuesday, as North Texas head coach Eric Morris, one of the Razorbacks’ top finalists, officially agreed to become the next head coach at Oklahoma State.

According to Pete Nakos of On3 sports, Morris was regarded as one of the hot names in the Arkansas search, with sources indicating the Razorbacks were amongst the top landing spots.
