FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas football coach Sam Pittman indicated during a news conference Monday that his staff will be focused on retaining its “core group” of players this offseason.

The Razorbacks (6-5, 3-4 SEC) have playmakers on both sides of the ball who will have college eligibility remaining after this season, and Pittman is determined to keep them in Fayetteville.

“Our record is 6-5, so it's not what everybody wants and all that, including me,” Pittman said. “But we do have a good core group of players that we need to return. And so we've got to do that first.
