The Slophouse: Chatting with Felix Jones
Former Arkansas All-American kick returner and running back Felix Jones spoke to about a couple dozen fans outside the Broyles Center earlier today after signing hundreds of autographs inside Razorback Stadium.
An NFL representative blocked the media from interviewing the Cowboys star but he did speak to Rick Schaeffer on the main stage here. Here are some highlights and make sure to enjoy the photo to the right by Andy Shupe. Seems the kiddo was a little scared, but Felix handed him back to his mother LIGHTNING fast.
On his fondest memories: Running out of that ‘A,’ hearing the Hog Calls. There’s a lot of memories. … It’s just a joy to come back to Broyles Field.
Healthy from injured toe? I am. I’ve been very good. I just started running a couple weeks ago. I’ll be ready.
Life without Terrell Owens, who’s now with Buffalo: It’s a business decision. … As a teammate, it was tough to see him go but we all wish him luck.
Do you keep in touch with Darren McFadden still?: I know he’s been doing great around Oakland. We try to keep in touch with each other and see how our bodies are feeling, seeing the adjustments we have to make. It’s a great thing when we can communicate like that and keep in touch with a fellow running back.
The sun is poking through the clouds and I’ve been tweeting all day among the masses here at Razorback Stadium during Razorfest. I appreciate all the re-tweets and tweets back, folks. Keep them coming and post up some photos on Twitter and message us @wholehogsports to share with the Slophouse. We’re about an hour away from kickoff.
