A former Arkansas football player has come out and wants a change in the coaching ranks.

Quarterback Matt Jones is a legend amongst most Razorbacks fans because of the part he played in “Miracle on Markham,” a game Arkansas won over LSU back in 2002. This nickname was given because Jones threw a touchdown pass to DeCori Birmingham with less than a minute to go and Arkansas went on to win 21-20.

Now, he’s shedding light on what he thinks about the current state of the program. Whelp, he’s not a huge fan of where his former school is headed under Bret Bielema. Check out the tweets Jones sent out as Arkansas lost to South Carolina in embarrassing 48-22 fashion Saturday night:

He didn’t stop there. Jones went on to talk about the coaching situation.

Bielema is now 27-29 at Arkansas following the loss to the Gamecocks.
