Fouch joins the Hogs from Missouri State, where he was the co-offensive coordinator and running backs coach while also serving as the Bears’ recruiting coordinator. Alongside offensive coordinator Nick Petrino, Fouch helped lead one of the best offenses in the Football Championship Subdivision with the Bears ranking in the top 10 nationally in multiple categories.

🔺 Perfect Poll. Arkansas baseball checked in at No. 2 in Perfect Game’s top-25 rankings, the first preseason poll of 2024. The Razorbacks are ranked behind only No. 1 Wake Forest by Perfect Game, and are joined by six other SEC programs in the top 10. Check out who else joined the Diamond Hogs here.

🔺 Dan The Man. The National Football Foundation (NFF) has a new Razorback joining its College Football Hall of Fame in former Arkansas All-American Dan Hampton.

Hampton, a four-year letterwinner at defensive tackle from 1975-78, will become the 21st Razorback affiliated with the program to be inducted into the NFF Hall of Fame. He played two seasons for Coach Frank Broyles (1975-76) and finished his career playing for Coach Lou Holtz (1977-78).
