The agreement, coming a month after Arkan- sas reached its first NCAA Tournament Elite Eight appearance in more than 25 years, will run from May 1 through April 2026 and includes the potential for a pair of one-year automatic agreement extensions if the Hogs receive NCAA tourney bids “within the timeframe of the agreement.” “Coach Musselman earned this opportunity based on the tremendous progress that he and his coaching staff have made in the past two seasons, culminating with the most exciting season in the recent history of Razorback basketball,” athletic director Hunter Yurachek said. Musselman will receive $4 million in annual com- pensation, with additional compensation available based on longevity and “success in the SEC and NCAA Tournament.” Musselman is 45-19 in two years at Arkansas and 155-53 in six years as a college head coach.
