As far as I can tell, today's new of Auburn firing Gus Malzahn does not alter how much Arkansas will pay Chad Morris because his three-year deal with the Tigers was fully guaranteed. Whatever he makes at his next job will offset the burden on Auburn, but unless he goes somewhere and makes MORE money - which I don't think is possible - it won't further reduce how much the Hogs have to pay him.
What's good is that it doesn't appear he had a buyout agreement with Auburn where he received only like 70% of what he was owed. If that was the case, it would increase the burden on Arkansas. I hope that makes sense.
And for a refresher, here's my column from back in February about how Auburn/Gus/Chad really kinda screwed Arkansas over with his contract: https://arkansas.rivals.com/news/column-chad-morris-hands-arkansas-another-l-
