After the crowd reaction to his big hit, I recommend that we refer to Henry Barnes as"BOOM" in the future...

Boomer is a nickname thats already taken by a pretty popular guy. Every time I would hear that I wouldn't think about Barnes. All i would hear is Back Back Back Back Back Back GOOONEEE!

If he lays out a few more hard hits we may be able to call him Basher, as in Basher Barnes.

According to the sports websitr deadspin: "Chase Naccarato's efforts to take the ball home were thwarted by Appalachian State's "Boomer Barns, who walked in and told the football, 'You're with us, pigskin'. It hopped out of the hands of Naccarato and left with the Mountaineers."
