Personally I hate the Cowboys, but who else can we root for? The Chiefs? Yuk. I think Matt will be signed by someone, it might as well be the Cowboys because a lot of Arkansans follow the Cowboys.

I thought he was a god, or maybe just he ‎thought that. It would seem the NFL teams are saying, "You had your chance and you blew it. ‎Time to move on." That would be good advice for all the Razorback fans out there too. ‎ Jones was heralded as the next great Arkansas hero replacing Brandon Burslworth, a young man ‎actually worthy of respect http://www.hognation.net/retnumbs/fb77.html . How many child sized ‎jerseys with "JONES" on the back did the University of Arkansas sell? Jones happily accepted ‎his position on the pedestal. Too bad he wasn't willing to live up to it. ‎ America is the land of second chances, and Jones may get one (make that another one). If not, oh ‎well. Let's move on and make room for another demigod in the Arkansas pantheon. ‎ You mean Matt can’t just say, “Let there be contract”? I thought he was a god, or maybe just he ‎thought that.

He was the most exciting Arkansas football player I ever had the pleasure to watch. I do wonder if WR is the only thing he can do for them. As that great video shows, Matt was one hell of a runner. Whoever gets him needs to figure out how to just get the ball in his hands and let him go nuts. Getting Matt involved in some Wildcat plays makes a lot of sense.
