FAYETTEVILLE — Word was out April 16 that Arkansas football coach Sam Pittman had agreed to the terms of a raise and contract extension, and he confirmed as much later that day after the Razorbacks’ spring showcase inside Walker Pavilion.
Gearing up for his third season at Arkansas, Pittman put pen to paper May 31 in Destin, Fla., on a deal that runs through at least the 2026 season and will pay him a base salary of $5 million per year.
