FAYETTEVILLE — I’ve got to think that one of the tougher jobs in sports is being an athletics director who is fairly new on the job and who has a couple of sports that are not winning at the level that some fans believe they should be.
That’s the case for Arkansas athletics director Hunter Yurachek, who took over that spot after the powers that be decided Jeff Long had run his course here and should move on.
Yurachek arrived from Houston and inherited an Arkansas football program headed in the wring direction, one that has won only six of its last 26 games and went only 2-10 in its first season under new coach Chad Morris.
