Arkansas should have hired Tyson Helton from Western Kentucky instead of the dude they got -
$918K salary - offensive coach who scores points
four 9-win seasons two 8-win seasons in 7 total prior to 2026
5-2 bowl games
beat Chad Morris* 45-19 in Fayetteville in 2019
he's 3-4 / 2-1 so far in 2026 -
Tyson - Gainesville/Pensacola roots through his father who played C at UF - brother Clay now HC at Georgia Southern after a 46-24 stint at Southern Cal (Lincoln Riley is 42-20 after replacing Helton btw)

I just can't believe Arkansas looked at how Fuente and Norvell did when they left Memphis and decided to hire Silverfield, who couldn't even win like they did at Memphis.
Just a wholly uninspiring hire. Money churn for no reason.

Final game for Chad Morris I believe

Hunter is basically fat Scott. Except he managed to hire a good basketball coach. Hunter is living in some weird fantasy world where nil doesn’t exist and that the fanbase is going to be ok sucking at football if women’s sports are doing well and other sports do well.
Neither is reality, even if your basketball program is good.
Sec fans require football be good, about half also expect basketball and baseball to be good. If football isn’t good it’s a problem, if 2/3 are disasters no one gives a frick if every sport on campus is winning titles.
Pretty basic failure by both to realize that.

Talk about damning with faint praise.

I thought Fuente would for sure kill it at VT. I’m still not over that one.

But we aren't doing great at any women's sports. Soccer, Softball, T&F, from time to time Gymnastics, do pretty darn good. But none of them get enough resources to bounce from good to great. We're competitive.
Other smaller sports, well, we're competitive. Even the vaunted Arkansas T&F program, once the greatest program in NCAA history, has settled into competitive with a rare Natty here and there.
We are in a weird twilight zone where we spend just enough money to put out competitive programs while not doing enough to put out great teams.
Football is its own f*cked up world where we've settled for nobodies and damaged goods for well over a decade.
