Arkansas Razorbacks introduce new head coach Sam Pittman

[@boz065]

Coming from a Tennessee fan here. Y’all got a great coach in San Pittman. He might not be the flashiest hire out there but he is a great football coach. Hope he does well there for y’all.

[@lindacrossno9529]

Wow! I love this guy! What passion and emotion and genuine love for ARKANSAS and our HOGS!!!...WPS!!! Now RAZORBACK fans let's get behind COACH PITTMAN and SUPPORT our new COACH!!!

[@LoyalSnowLeopardess]

Love the Emotion Sam Pittman showed today during introductory press conference unable t talk and having to step away from podium at times showed just how much he cares and wants to be here. Love this hire WOO--PIG-SOOIE

[@lennywatt662]

19:29 - 20:03 shows he really wanted to be here in Arkansas

[@spliceoncharlie]

I like the hire. Coach Pittman has that Razorback spirit which is what Arkansas is needing. GO HOG'S!!!

[@jameslackey9356]

God bless him..at first I was disappointed but now I'm all in on this guy...I'd rather have him than Leach or Kiffin...his humility and graciousness is overwhelming...hell be a great one.

[@mikemathers2771]

Lol to say you'd rather have this dude who has never even been a damn coordinator is a total lie. You just are accepting no one wanted this damn job, well no one important. Kiffin is far too good for this dumpster program.

What a class act! Coach Pittman is so humble and genuine. Arkansas is lucky to have him.

[@acethurman6876]

I’m excited for Coach Pittman! I’ve been saying we need a head coach that WANTS to be at Arkansas and can instill the pride in the players and staff. Coach Pittman WANTS to be a Hog and i’m here for it! WOO PIG!

[@Mondaydark2o12]

Of course its wait and see. That being said I am glad to have a guy that wants to live in Arkansas. I am happy with the idea of Sam Pittman as head coach. It's not going to be easy.

[@GuruGuru-xh5sq]

So awesome to see the passion in this man. So humble and choked up he could barely do the presser!! Im sure he’ll straighten out!! LoL!! Glad things worked out the way they did for us!!! Yessss Sirrrrr!!! Congrats coach Pittman! Lets GO TO WORK!

[@allenmudman9755]

His passion encourages me. What we need!

[@JamieTheBangles11Fan]

He's the best coach for the job. And by that I mean he's both A. A great coach and B. He wants to be here. You might go out and get a Kiffin or Leach and both are great coaches. But if they didn't want to be here, no thanks to both of them. You need a guy with passion and when your program is at rock bottom, no better place to start building than the line. WPS

[@katedryer4488]

WPS - love the passion!

[@MisplacedArkie]

The man the guys in the locker room, and from Hog past, all wanted. Love it.

[@jimdavis2385]

Nobody wanted us except Pittman. That means a lot, but here is the most important thing about this coach: His team may get beat, but we'll not be embarrassed like we have been for the last two years!

I hate that he left Georgia, but I completely understand that he wanted to be home basically. It's hard to root against him, and I hope he does great. (not against Georgia though :) )

[@DrummerJake-cm5ir]

I mean technically you had a dead line if you wanna get some recruits lol, I'm all for it,if he can get us back to competitive

[@LivnTex]

YesssSirrrr. Sam will field a team full of mean hogs on both side of the trenches and start winning games.

[@karnman1]

Agreed.

[@KnEpH131]

Absolutely! How many times did that news guy say that.

[@jimmears]

Stop comparing. STOP! Orgeron took over a program that had year after year after year of top 10 recruiting classes. Arkansas football has NEVER had a top 10 class N E V E R !!! The highest ranked recruiting class I know of was 2009 class ranked at 16 by Rivals.

[@donaldwatkins4530]

Did Sam cry because he was overjoyed. y the job or because he was thinking about having to play LSU , Alabama, Auburn etc . etc. every season. But he's assured everyone we are gonna be a FORCE in the SEC and play for championships. Why does that sound soooo familiar? I hope it works out cause all the losing has gotten old. Go Sam and Go Hogs , PLZ!!!!

@@whatamiwatchng582 his name is the one I hear the most as far as coaches that we would have a legitimate chance to pull. With us pushing out the AD who hired Harsin in a rogue action to Harsin walking in the door and telling the money people he doesn’t want or need their help, we are doomed under the current staff it would seem. Y’all better hold on tight because the Pitboss name is starting to spread to every potential job opening

[@whatamiwatchng582]

@@MrExdous69 we’re not concerned and hears why. Pittman signed a new contract with Arkansas in April and there’s a key element that most people outside of the state don’t know about. Pittman had Arkansas include in the contract that he is 100% unable to leave for another job. He’s only out if Arkansas fires him. He wanted all of his recruits and players to know his commitment to the program. He has loyalty that hasn’t been seen before. This is his last job

[@robertmccoin1166]

Yawn.

[@markm50]

Other than 2 seasons with Petrino, Arkansas Razorback football has been on a downward trajectory since 1991. That is almost 30 years. It's not going to ever change permanently as long as Arkansas is in the SEC and as long as Arkansas high school football cannot produce more top Div 1 players. It is that simple. This means a great year for Arkansas is 9-3 and a very good season is 7-5 to 8-4. Count on at least 3 SEC losses every single year and most years it will be 4+ losses in conference.

I'll tell you how rest of sec sees this. We see it as a bad hire. We had him here in knoxville.

Pruitt personality more of a Saban type personality with no media crap get the same guy ever week and old school smash mouth football type like fulmer was. That is why vols went pruitt. To many nations top defence year after year on his resume. Hope he works out for you guys. Sam is a great online coach.
