From Pat Forde:
Arkansas (28). Beating Florida on Saturday was big for Sam Pittman for multiple reasons. It offered a ray of happiness for Razorbacks fans in a dismal season, but it also guaranteed that his buyout will be $16 million, which might be more than the school wants to spend. Pittman’s contract calls for him to get 75% of his remaining salary if his record from 2021 to the present is .500 or better, and beating the Gators gets him to 19–16 with three games left this season. After already eating nearly $3 million in firing offensive coordinator Dan Enos just eight games into a three-year contract, Arkansas might need to hold its powder regarding Pittman and give him a fifth season—especially if he can rally this 3–6 group to bowl eligibility.
