FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas coach Sam Pittman returned to statewide radio Wednesday touting a stronger, deeper team than his inaugural season one year ago.

Speaking during the Season 2 premiere of his weekly radio show at the Catfish Hole restaurant, Pittman said the Razorbacks look like an SEC football team after a full offseason working with strength coach Jamil Walker. Arkansas’ offseason conditioning was interrupted last year due to the covid-19 pandemic that sent players home for nearly four months and canceled spring football.
