New Arkansas coach Sam Pittman gets choked up during first press conference: 'I'm a wreck' Posted Dec 13, 2019 Sam Pittman was officially introduced as Arkansas’ new football coach Monday, and he replaces Chad Morris, who was fired in November after going just 4-18 in less than two seasons and earning zero SEC wins. (Auburn hired Morris to be its offensive coordinator.) Judging by Pittman’s introductory press conference, this job clearly means the world to him. (USA Today)
