Summary

Few Razorback football players through the years were as exciting to watch as Felix Jones. Alongside Darren McFadden, he formed one of the greatest backfields in college football history. Jones still holds the Arkansas school record for career yards per rush, was a First-Team All-American in 2007, and was part of some of the most memorable Razorback moments of the past quarter century. And though it was McFadden who got the spotlight as a two-time Heisman finalist, the duo was better together. In this episode, we take a look back with Felix Jones and find out what made him such a special player, and what made those Razorback teams so great.
