University of Arkansas at Fayetteville Athletic Director Jeff Long announced today that effective the 2015-2016 school year, the UAF football program would no longer be a member of the Southeastern Conference.
Instead Long said “ they would join the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision of Independent Schools and only play teams that there was a 100% certainty that they could beat”. Long added that “ our fans hate losing and another season of getting pounded by teams in the SEC would be more than they could stand”.
