FAYETTEVILLE -- The search for the next University of Arkansas football coach is stretching further into the week.
Some of the candidates for the vacancy are coaching in conference championship games this weekend, including Florida Atlantic's Lane Kiffin and Appalachian State's Eliah Drinkwitz.
Athletic Director Hunter Yurachek and deputy athletic director Jon Fagg have spent the past few days interviewing candidates across the nation, sources have said.
They talked to Kiffin on Sunday, spoke to Tulane Coach Willie Fritz on Sunday or Monday, according to CBSSports.com, and met with Washington State Coach Mike Leach on Monday night.
