FAYETTEVILLE — For Arkansas linebacker Bumper Pool, there was really only one choice when it came to where he was going to attend college.
The 6-2, 225 pound junior from Lucas, Texas, had multiple offers, including Alabama, LSU and Texas A&M, but he had always dreamed of being a Razorback.
“I’m a die-hard Razorback fan who got the opportunity to play football for them,” Pool said.
Being a Razorback is a bit of a tradition in the Pool family. Pool’s grandfather, dad, two aunts, multiple cousins and his siblings have all either graduated from Arkansas or are attending now.
