Arkansas has a linebacker named Bumper Pool

That’s it. That’s the post.

You really didn’t fall for that internet joke, did you? I’m talking about the part where I only wrote two short sentences, not the facetious name.

Arkansas actually does start an outside linebacker named after the not-so-popular game of billiards. An alternative for those who didn’t have the space for a full-sized pool table, the game is played on an octagonal table with built-in obstacles.

Bumper Pool the football player is a 6-2, 230-pound athlete entering his second season as the Razorbacks’ starting will linebacker. The sophomore’s 30 tackles are the third-most on the team and rank in the top 25 of the SEC.
