FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas will be seeing at least one of its former assistant coaches on the opposing sideline next season.
Vernon Hargreaves was hired Thursday as inside linebackers coach at Missouri. He had spent the past three seasons on Bret Bielema's staff at Arkansas, coaching all linebackers in 2015-16 and inside linebackers after the Razorbacks' move to a 3-4 scheme this year.
Hargreaves was one of eight coaches fired from Arkansas following Chad Morris' hiring as head coach last week. Because he was fired for convenience, Hargreaves' no-compete clause was waived, which allowed him to take another job within the Southeastern Conference.
