re: How long does Pittman stay at Ark?

Seems any time a coach begins to have success at a school that is not named Alabama, speculation starts as to where he will end up next.

He's not going anywhere.

Although repeatedly mentioned, I don't think the lake house makes it a certainty. People buy and sell those all the time. I've done it myself. Hell, even Pitt has done so; but granted in the same state.


No the reason he won't leave is if he continues to have success he will be hailed as a hero in Arkansas for reviving a moribund program. Again, it's early but if the trajectory continues where is he likely to go? He isn't going to go to another broken program to revive it he'll have done that already. His other option would be to go to a traditionally stronger program where he can at best maintain or slightly improve or worse fail.

He's making a decent amount of money where he is. Factor in his age and I think Arky can count on him as long as they like.
