Only Barry Lunney was retained from CBB's coaching staff.

From today's Democrat-Gazette:

"FAYETTEVILLE — The contracts were terminated for eight of Arkansas' nine full-time football assistant coaches last week, according to documents obtained Monday through an open records request by the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.

Barry Lunney Jr., a former Arkansas player who has coached tight ends the past five seasons, was the only full-time assistant coach who was not terminated. Lunney has been on the road recruiting this week, although it has not been officially announced whether he will be retained on the staff of new head coach Chad Morris.

Coordinators Dan Enos and Paul Rhoads, and position coaches Kurt Anderson, Reggie Mitchell, Michael Smith, John Scott, Vernon Hargreaves and Chad Walker were informed of their termination in letters signed by Senior Associate Athletic Director Julie Cromer Peoples and dated Dec. 7 and Dec. 8. Strength coach Ben Herbert also was relieved of his duties Dec. 8.

In the letters, the coaches were instructed to return all university-issued property, including cellphones, computers and vehicles, by the end of business Monday.

All of the fired assistants were brought to Arkansas by former head coach Bret Bielema, who was fired Nov. 24 for convenience after the Razorbacks went 4-8 overall and 1-7 in SEC games. The university promises to pay up to six months salary to each of the coordinators and position coaches, pending mitigation, in the event a head coach is fired, according to standard language located in each of their offer letters.

The fired coordinators and position coaches had combined annual salaries of $3.595 million, meaning the university could owe up to $1,797,500 in buyout payments, a figure that would be offset by future earnings."

Hogville prediction formula:

1.  Insert bad news prediction. A loss, a recruit going elsewhere, a coach leaving, etc.
2.  Tag "hope I'm wrong," on the end.
3a.  Enjoy a correct prediction.
3b.  Act like you're relieved you're wrong and celebrate with everyone else.

Rhoads said this about Anderson? Where is this from? Curious to know what each coach thought of each other.

Rhoads said nothing.  Go back and read.  Shrute is implying that no one will be hiring Anderson.  Pokey was just trying to explain it.

How do you know we won't be paying him anything? Do you know his salary at UCLA, do you know if there is an offset if he finds other work? The safest thing to say is, we don't know what any contract at the UofA means, lol........

That's right, you don't want to be the man to replace the man.  You want to be the man to replace Rory Segrest.

Please, look at what you are about to post.  We have so much pitiful posting on here.  Your opinion is one thing.  Stating it as if it is fact is another.  Pronouns are not most posters friend.  Who the hell are you talking about, talking to, repeating from?  When you don't actually know a damn thing for sure, don't post it.

I'm glad Scott wasn't retained. I wasn't that happy when I heard it was a possibility.

LOL @ you. 

You've spent the last 5 years pretending like you know how hard Bielema and the staff worked, telling us all how lazy they are, acting like you know crap you just assumed, most of it completely wrong.

Go soak your head.

It had to "of been" at least twice?

How 'bout we don't pay coaches who aren't working anymore.  Do these guys not put any $ in accounts to tide them over between jobs?  Most of the time they find new jobs in a matter of weeks if not days.

Man, I missed my calling by not going into this profession, like I could have...

with Scott gone wonder where we stand with the two  defensive lineman from GA

How about we not violate contracts and get sued.
