Keiro Small

[PEtrader]

Is on Fox News talking about the Baltimore protests.  He came across well spoken.

[CaseyHawgDog]

He spoke very well

[RazorbacksFan]

I just saw Kiero Small being interviewed by the national news in Baltimore.

"I'm here to show the kids that there are other ways. I talked to the kids at an alternative school today: they told me that they didn't know another way." "I can march down here [...] to show that we can get things done without violence."

Kiero is laying it out there.  I very much appreciate him!

What news outlet was it? If anybody runs across a clip, or knows where I might find one let me know. I'd love to see it.

I've always liked him.....a lot.

I sure hope he makes a (good) living playing football.

For those interested, here's the Baltimore Sun's article on Kiero. It says that he worked for his father for a year before resuming football. It appeared to be his father or a family member in the background during the interview with Geraldo Rivera: the man behind Kiero was wearing an "Arkansas Football" shirt.

Kiero Small is a very impressive man. I like seeing that he is making a good impact with young people.

[sowmonella]

Geraldo interviewed him on Fox News. Didn't mention the fact he was with the Ravens.

[daprospecta]

I thought that was him!  I was in the gym thinking, "isn't that Kiero?"

[Hawg Red]

Dude is uncommon.

[flagstaffhog]

Dude is uncommon.

worth re-posting...

[Kevin]

That is great for recruiting.

[RunHogruN]

Dude is uncommon.

These are the kind of news our players should be in unlike the Auburn and Alabama players who are constantly in the news for the wrong reasons. This makes me proud to be a fan of Arkansas. An uncommon University that produces great uncommon men that shows the nation how to be a real man of worth.

[I BLEED RBack RED]

#UNCOMMON...my girl bought me that shirt at Hog Heaven during the spring game. She said that she was going to the ladies room. (Luv that woman) Kiero Small and Trey Flowers were the first two people I thought of when I laid eyes upon Coach B told us once upon a time about "Uncommon"...we're def seeing it now!!

[Hog N Bama]

The very first time I saw Keiro speak to the media I was convinced this young man was going to succeed, not only in football but in life in general. Truly uncommon. Hat's off to you man! :razorback:

[PORKULATOR]

+10000 Keiro

I love that he is humble and staying at home with his parents so he can get a good home cooked meals. That's uncommon and probably the first player CBB would say that he was super lucky to inherit when he arrived at Arkansas...

[nwahogfan1]

I hope Keiro comes back to Arkansas if he wants to be Coach later and learn under CBB.  I think he is a great role model and an excellent coach but maybe he needs to stay in Baltimore because they need all the sports role models they can get.

[DeltaBoy]

He is UNCOMMON! Good for him.

[KlubhouseKonnected]

Good dude.

[Hogarusa]

He spoke well is one of the strangest compliments out there to give to an adult with a college education.  How were you expecting the man to speak? 

It's like the cliches that Dan Patrick always talks about when it comes to black athletes vs white athletes given by the media

[Iwastherein1969]

weren't the first words out of Bielema's mouth when he saw Keiro Small out on the field...I think he uttered, "now that is what a fullback is supposed to look like".....the ultimate compliment to Keiro....Keiro is one of the good guys and proof positive that if you stay out of trouble and keep your nose clean, you can make it in this country no matter your race. Never said it would be as easy as others have it, but there are still places in this country and jobs to fill for men like Keiro Small

Have you  watched manyOthes interviews of athletes over the years? I'm not sure well spoken is that common for lots of athletes these days. We seem to have a large supply of them though, and that's a good thing.

[porkchopsdontfloat]

I already had a man-crush on Kiero. The guy is just amazing.

[Dr. Starcs]

"He's got an incredible, incredible a$$."

Lol. Man I wish Kiero could have been a part of this past years team.

Ryan Mallett never had to worry about that underhanded compliment because he was white...or maybe it was because he wasn't well spoken. So glad to see K Small doing well. Great young man and great representative for the hogs, even if he is well spoken.

[impact]

Didn't Raven RB coach, Thomas Hammock, work for Bielema at Wisky?  I am very impressed that Bielema cares for his players beyond their playing days.

Mallett had the reverse of that, he suffererd because he wasn't as "well spoken" as people deemed he should based on preconceived stereotypes.
