“Upon gaining knowledge of the allegations against a student-athlete earlier this week, we immediately informed the University’s Title IX office of the allegations,” Arkansas’ athletic department said. “The student-athlete is no longer a member of the football team.”
The Kade Renfro situation is disgusting. The more and more evidence I see, the worse it gets. If all of this holds up to be true, then both he and whoever covered him better be out immediately. I just hope accountability and justice can be found for all those involved 🐗❤️

At Stephenville High, where Renfro played football, Art Briles’ program saw success in Texas throughout the 1990s. While attending Florida State in 2019, Kendal Briles, Briles’s son, extended a scholarship offer to Renfro.

After the FSU coaching staff was sacked for the following season, Briles moved to Arkansas, and Renfro ended up signing with Ole Miss, where Kendal’s brother-in-law, Jeff Lebby, was the offensive coordinator. Renfro left the Rebels after one season and joined Arkansas, where he has played the past two seasons while missing 2022 due to injury.
