    Arkansas TE Uekman found dead overnight

    The Arkansas Razorbacks football program was stunned Sunday when it was announced that redshirt freshman tight end Garrett Uekman was found dead in his dorm room overnight. The news was confirmed by Adam Alter of KNWA/KARK on Twitter on Sunday afternoon, and Alter said the team is holding a meeting at 1:30 pm Central Time.

    Sucks. Wonder if it was meningitis. Been plenty of college kids that have died overnight from that deal.
