OPINION| RICK FIRES: First look at college football coaches with Arkansas ties


The temperature is 99 degrees outside, the humidity is suffocating, and the air conditioning in your vehicle is only blowing out hot air.

So, what do you do?

If you're like me, you grab a cold drink and plead for fall weather and football, which leads to our checklist of college football coaches with Arkansas ties for the upcoming season.

GUS MALZAHN, HEAD COACH, CENTRAL FLORIDA

What about us?

That's what Central Florida fans are surely saying when the conversation turns to who'll replace Oklahoma and Texas as top teams in the Big 12 Conference.

There's a real opportunity here for Central Florida, starting with a league game at Texas Christian on Sept 14. Win that game and the Knights return home with plenty of momentum to await Colorado on Sept.
