Skip Holtz The Next To Deny Arkansas Coaching Interest

Stay connected with SB Nation

South Florida Bulls coach Skip Holtz has appeared on quite a few lists of potential candidates for the freshly vacant Arkansas Razorbacks job. He's the son of a former Hogs coach and has maintained a solid team despite being surrounded by bigger programs, which certainly fits the Arkansas bill.

But Holtz became the second to publicly deny interest in the job, telling Greg Auman he hasn't talked to anybody from Arkansas:

"I am not looking to leave here. I am not calling anybody. I am not trying to put my name out there. I want to be the head football coach here," he said. "I enjoy it here. I like it here. I addressed this in the offseason when some other opportunities were open. I said then I think we have a lot of things we want to get done here. We've got a great senior class coming back, and the attitude and morale of this football team is my No. 1 priority."

Elsewhere, Gus Malzahn has said he's staying with Arkansas State.
