The Little Rock Touchdown Club will host four football figures this month, with Arkansas TV broadcasting each session live to viewers across the state. The events are scheduled for four consecutive Mondays in November, beginning on November 2 and concluding on November 23. Arkansas Live will stream the conversations from the Touchdown Club, providing a direct feed for residents who cannot attend in person.

Nathan Brown opens the series on November 2. Brown served as the offensive coordinator for the University of Central Arkansas Bears for four seasons before becoming the 20th head football coach for the program in December 2017. During his tenure as head coach, he guided the team to two conference championships, including a share of the 2022 ASUN title, and secured an FCS playoff appearance in 2019. Before his coaching career, Brown was the most prolific quarterback in UCA history. He threw for 10,558 yards and 100 touchdowns from 2005 to 2008, earning three All-America selections. He was named Southland Conference Offensive Player of the Year in 2007 and Player of the Year in 2008, when he also received a Walter Payton Award finalist nod. He remains the program's all-time leader in career passing yards and touchdowns and was the first UCA player in the NCAA Division I era invited to the Senior Bowl.

Kevin Scanlon appears on November 9. The former Arkansas quarterback is a member of both the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame and the University of Arkansas Hall of Fame. He led the Razorbacks to a Southwest Conference Championship and an appearance in the 1980 Sugar Bowl against Alabama. In 1979, Scanlon set a single-season completion percentage record at the University of Arkansas by completing 66% of his passes. That record stood for 41 years until Feleipe Franks broke it in 2020. During his two-year letterman career, he received Conference Player of the Year, Offensive Player of the Year, and All-American honors.

Lance Barrow is scheduled for November 16. A 13-time Emmy Award winner, Barrow spent more than four decades at CBS Sports. He took over the network's golf production in 1997 and guided its Masters coverage through 2020. From 2004 to 2017, he served as lead game producer for CBS's NFL broadcasts, overseeing four Super Bowl broadcasts. His work also extended to the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament, Olympic Winter Games, Daytona 500, and US Open tennis.

Matt Stinchcomb closes the lineup on November 23. A College Football Hall of Famer and two-time consensus All-American from the University of Georgia, Stinchcomb joined ESPN in 2009. He now works as a college football analyst, contributing to SEC Network coverage. He played eight professional seasons with the Oakland Raiders and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, including an appearance in Super Bowl XXXVII. Outside of broadcasting, he is a partner at Sterling Seacrest Partners and co-founded the Stinchcomb Family Foundation to support children's charities.

Viewers can watch all four events at arkansastv.gov/arkansaslive. The Arkansas Live initiative uses multi-camera livestreaming to provide access to events from organizations including Crystal Bridges and the Winthrop Rockefeller Institute.
