Raymond Hunter Jr. brings freshman size and local Arkansas grit to UAPB’s linebacker room
In the 2026 season, Raymond Hunter Jr. is listed as a freshman linebacker for Arkansas-Pine Bluff at 6-foot-0, 230 pounds, with a North Little Rock, Arkansas background that hints at a hometown-player edge[1][2]. The appeal here is projection: he has the frame to handle inside work, and early roster listings suggest he’s part of the Golden Lions’ linebacker mix rather than just a placeholder[2]. With no public stat line available yet, the best read is that he’s a developmental defender worth watching for physicality, downhill run support, and upside if he quickly adapts to the college game[1][2].
