FAYETTEVILLE -- Six assistant football coaches for the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville have posted farewell messages on their Twitter accounts, a clear indication they won't be retained by new Razorbacks Coach Chad Morris.
The departing assistants are defensive coordinator Paul Rhoads, along with position coaches Michael Smith (wide receivers), Reggie Mitchell (running backs), Kurt Anderson (offensive line), Vernon Hargreaves (inside linebackers) and Chad Walker (outside linebackers).
Barry Lunney Jr., a Fort Smith native and former Arkansas quarterback who has been the Razorbacks' tight ends coach since 2013, was on the road recruiting Friday.
There was no word Friday night on the status of Razorbacks offensive coordinator Dan Enos and defensive line coach John Scott.
