HawgBeat – Arkansas WR Sam Mbake no longer with team
Arkansas Razorbacks football wide receiver Sam Mbake is no longer with the team, HawgBeat learned Monday.
The sophomore receiver was dismissed from the team weeks ago, a team spokesperson told HawgBeat. The last game that Mbake was part of the Arkansas roster on the team’s game notes was the Auburn game on Nov. 11.
A former three-star prospect in the class of 2022 according to Rivals, Mbake played primarily on special teams during his freshman season. He actually transitioned to defensive back for part of the year but did not see game action before moving back to wide receiver. Mbake has not recorded any offensive stats during his time in Fayetteville.
Heading into the 2023-24 season, Mbake was set to see an uptick in playing time but suffered a season-ending knee injury during a closed scrimmage. Prior to that, the Georgia native was receiving high praise from head coach Sam Pittman.
“Mbake is a wonderful person and he plays 90 miles per hour all the time and it’s important to him,” Pittman said. “He has improved in every aspect of his game — speed, strength, awareness of what he’s doing. Mbake will be on the field as much as anybody this year. I really like the kid. He’s an awful hard worker.”
It is unknown if Mbake has intentions to enter the transfer portal. All HawgBeat was told is that he is no longer a member of the Arkansas football team.

PHILLIPS COUNTY, Ark. — A suspect in a Helena-West Helena homicide caused a barricade situation Tuesday as he was being processed in the Phillips County Detention Center.
Authorities said a prisoner who was being processed at the jail was able to get hold of some type of instrument and cause harm to himself.
He barricaded himself in the processing area and pepper spray was used to subdue him.
The prisoner was taken to the local emergency room for treatment. No one else was injured.
Helena-West Helena Police Chief Vincent Bell said he doesn’t know much more about what happened at the jail, but said the inmate is connected to a fatal shooting Tuesday afternoon.
The suspect was being held in connection to an incident where a man was shot dead in the doorway of O’Reilly Auto Parts in West Helena.
The shooting was the result of a disagreement that started in front of a motel, and the victim ran to the front of O’Reilly’s where he was fatally shot.
Chief Bell offered no details on a motive or the name of the victim.
