The Internet blew up after Illinois State signed a 6-foot-7, 285-pound offensive lineman named Kobe Buffalomeat to its 2017 recruiting class Wednesday.

Buffalomeat’s name will surely go down as one of the greatest names for National Signing Day.

Actor and comedian Jordan Peele even got in on the fun on Twitter. Peele’s sketch comedy show ‘Key Setrabet and Peele’ that used to run on Comedy Central was notorious for skewering outrageous names of football players in sketches. 

Illinois State, out of the Football Championship Subdivision, finished 6-6 in the Missouri Valley Conference last season.
