America is caught up in Papal Visit Fever, thanks to Pope Francis’s visit to the U.S. Admittedly, we’ve caught it, too. That’s why we decided to take a look at the best athletes named Pope and create a definitive ranking.
10. Nicholas Pope
Nicholas Pope didn’t get an NBA opportunity after his playing career at Oklahoma Baptist University ended, so he went to France. He’s played five seasons in the French first tier and spent last year with STB Le Havre, where he averaged 6.8 points per game.
9. Roshawn Pope
After four seasons of football at the University of Houston, Roshawn never made it to the NFL.
