Felix Jones Named to CFN All-America Team

[jbuzbee]

Felix Jones was named to CFN's All-America First team for special teams. Jones was the obvious choice, in my opinion, as he led the nation in kickoff return average including a 100 yard return for a TD against Mississippi State. Jones finished the season averaging over 30 yards per return.

Hopefully, next year Nutt will have enough confidence in his ability to catch the ball to allow him to return punts as well....instead of Peyton Hillis. Hillis just doesn't have the explosive ability of Jones. Only place I want to see Hillis next year is fullback.

I heard Nutt say sometime or another about Felix and punt returns.. I know he mentioned it, but I cant remember the specifics, anyway he would do awesome with punt returns.

30 yard average...that's gotta be nice to be able to assume you're going to have good field position at least half the game in general, not to mention the better odds on him breaking one for a special teams TD...those always seem to come in handy.

Congrats to Jones...Arkansas's backfield is going to be scary-good for a lot of years to come. I have to hope that Dick isn't all that at QB and that your WR's don't quite pan out cuz if either happens..... :eek: the holes will only get bigger for McFadden & Jones. Throw in a short field and y'all should be scoring a helluva lot more points than you did this past year. No offense, just an observation....one y'all have probably made 1,000 times yourselves.
