Honoring Darren McFadden's Legacy

The Arkansas football team has introduced a No. 5 jersey patch to honor Darren McFadden, a legendary player in the team's history.

Only two numbers have been retired in Arkansas football history: Brandon Burlsworth's 77 and Clyde Scott's 12. McFadden's number, however, will be honored with a patch on both the offensive and defensive jerseys.

It's a conversation piece, said McFadden, the Doak Walker Award winner and Heisman Trophy runner-up in 2006 and 2007.

McFadden was honored on the field during the game against Texas A&M.
