EchoingEagle+FollowBig changes could hit Arkansas students’ walletsArkansas’ proud tradition of a self-sustaining athletic department is on the chopping block after a surprise move by the university’s board of trustees. Now, millions that once flowed from Razorback sports to the university could reverse direction, with the school scrambling to find $6 million a year for athletics. With no clear plan, the pressure is mounting to introduce a mandatory student athletic fee—something leaders have long resisted. For students already juggling tuition and jobs, this could mean paying more for sports they might not even follow. What do you think: should all students help fund athletics, or is there a better way? #Sports #Arkansas #Razorbacks00Share
jharvey+FollowArkansas sports: Big spending, bigger surprisesArkansas’ women’s tennis team brought in just $82 last year—less than a dinner out—while spending over $1 million to compete.

carlsongary+FollowArkansas faces a retail crossroads in 2026Longtime favorites like Lazzari Italian Oven in Jonesboro and several Big Lots locations across Arkansas are shutting down, leaving behind more than just empty storefronts—they’re taking away community hubs and affordable shopping options.

Meanwhile, Park Plaza Mall in Little Rock is barely hanging on, while Rogers’ Pinnacle Hills Promenade is booming. It feels like the middle is disappearing, with choices shrinking for many.
