Arkansas will introduce John L. Smith as head coach Tuesday with a one-year deal. The 63-year-old Smith leaves Weber State without ever coaching a game for the FCS school, his alma mater. He has coached with Bobby Petrino at Arkansas, Michigan State, Louisville and Utah State.

it's funny how Petrino is blasted for leaving the Falcons high and dry, which is what Smith just did to Weber State...anyhow, I think the hire makes sense for the Hogs since he coached there recently, knows the staff and much of the team.
