Jake Butt is over 6 feet tall and 237 pounds of pure muscle. He's a freshman playing a key role for a top-20 football team in the Michigan Wolverines. And he's got a very bright future to look forward to after choosing to play for the Wolverines over a host of national programs, including Stanford and UCLA.
But his last name is also Butt. To make matters worse, he plays the tight-end position -- making him, yes, a tight end named Butt.

This has, in the immature world of college sports, predictably led to many sophomoric jokes at Butt's expense. But Butt took a go-to move out of the pubic relations handbook this weekend by getting ahead of the story, and mocking his critics' juvenile humor in one fantastic Twitter post:
Yes I'm a tight end. Yes my last name is butt. Hhahaha— jake butt (@JBooty_88) September 22, 2013
Way to go, Jake Butt. You're still in college, but you handled that like a true pro. That's also a perfect Twitter handle you've got there. Just a crack job all around, son.
