Chuck Dicus, who spent 17 years as head of the Razorback Foundation, has been named president of the Arkansas Game and Fish Foundation. He’ll be in an acting role until he succeeds Steve Smith July 1. Smith will become president emeritus.

Randy Milligan, chair of the Foundation, announced the appointment and said Dicus’ experience at fund-raising will be valuable to the foundation’s work. Dicus, a former Razorback and pro football player, has worked most recently in commercial real estate with Irwin Partners.
