Arkansas football set to hire Memphis’ Ryan Silverfield after Alex Golesh drama

One of the more under-the-radar coaching searches going on around the country recently has been the one in Fayetteville at Arkansas, but the Razorbacks have now settled on their next coach. Arkansas is set to hire Memphis head coach Ryan Silverfield as its next head coach going into 2026, according to Brett McMurphy of On3 Sports.

There had been a lot of buzz surrounding South Florida head coach Alex Golesh potentially going to Arkansas, but instead it is his conference rival that lands the job.

Silverfield has been an assistant at Memphis since 2016 and the head coach there since 2020. He has a career record of 50-25, including a 10-win season in 2023 and an 11-win campaign in 2024, and will look to bring the same kind of success to Arkansas.

This story will be updated.
