Guys, just spoke to our friend Nikki Chavanelle at our Arkansas Rivals site, HawgBeat.com, who tells me that Luke Fickell's name is being tossed around there in the coaching search to replace Chad Morris.
I told her I have a hard time seeing Fick leave for Arkansas. That's a good job, but as you all probably know, the Fickells have some serious roots in Ohio. Hard to leave Catholic-heavy Cincinnati for southern Baptist Arkansas. And I also can't see Fick uprooting his kids. So while his name might be mentioned there, hard to see it getting any traction.
At either rate, we'll keep you updated on any more rumblings we come across.
