🏈 Four Razorbacks get drafted
🐗 And so much more! 

🎙️ THE HOG POD

In this episode of The Hog Pod, we sit down with Arkansas Football General Manager and Executive Director of Player Acquisition, Gaizka Crowley, to break down one of the most important — and least understood — roles in modern college football. A position that didn’t even exist just a few years ago, Crowley explains how the game has rapidly evolved into a year-to-year operation driven by roster management, the transfer portal, and constant evaluation.

From high school recruiting to managing the current roster and navigating the portal, Crowley pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to build a competitive team in today’s landscape. He details the pace, pressure, and precision required behind the scenes and how his role serves as the foundation that allows the coaching staff to succeed.

It’s a candid look at how Arkansas Football is adapting to a new era — and the strategy, structure, and vision driving the Razorbacks forward.
