Narrative:
ATC directed us to turn to a heading of approximately 250 degrees to join the jonez arrival. We were on the bonham 3 arrival, over fort smith. Before intercepting the ranger 035 radial inbound, approximately 10 mi northeast of sasie, ATC informed us that our clearance was to cross sasie at 9000 ft and 250 KTS. We never heard or acknowledged that clearance. Fort worth issued us a 360 degree turn and re-established us on the arrival. No further comments were made by ATC when we said we never got that clearance.
