Summary

Ask most Razorback fans, and they’ll tell you that Year 1 under Sam Pittman was a resounding success. There were SEC wins—something the Razorbacks had gone two full seasons without—but more than that, the fight, effort and toughness had returned to a proud Arkansas program. The season wasn’t without its ups and downs, but Pittman took it all in stride and wouldn’t change a thing. He knows there’s a lot to build on. And so as Pittman and his staff enter Year 2 at Arkansas, where are the Razorbacks in the building process? And what has he been pleased with? Under Pittman’s leadership, Arkansas seems well on its way to making the state proud of Razorback football once again.
