Yurachek: 'I have to get this search right'
Arkansas athletics director Hunter Yurachek greets players from the Razorbacks' 1989 football team during a game against Auburn on Saturday, Oct. 19, 2019, in Fayetteville. FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas athletic director Hunter Yurachek said Monday he felt the football program was moving in reverse over the past month, leading to the firing of second-year coach Chad Morris after 22 games.
Morris was 4-18 in two seasons and was winless in Southeastern Conference games. The tipping point came Saturday as the Razorbacks were badly outplayed from the outset in a 45-19 loss to Western Kentucky at home in front of a sparse crowd of 42,985.
