PINE BLUFF, Arkansas -- Following a Freedom of Information Act request filed by the Commercial last week, the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff has released the names of 37 applicants who have applied to be the next head football coach for the Golden Lions.A search committee has been in place to help aid the university in making the hire.
Shortly after former head coach Monte Coleman was fired last month, UAPB Athletic Director Lonza Hardy Jr. ensured that the goal is to name a coach before the Christmas break on Dec. 14.
“An ideal situation is that we can name a new coach before we depart for the Christmas holidays,” Hardy said in a previous interview. “We would like to have someone in place by then. We will proceed quickly, but at the same time we’ll make sure we handle things correctly.”
Hardy has not returned recent calls by the Commercial on the issue.
