It wasn't always peaches and butterflies for Kiko as he had some off the field problems back in Eugene that made some teams question his character. I guess accidentally breaking into someones apartment and passing out on their couch in a drunken haze is something that GM's frown upon. I say give the kid a break. Breaking into houses and falling asleep is standard operating procedure at most college campuses, its what we college kids do. We drink, we get sleepy and we find a couch to crash on. Kiko simply took some cuervo to the grill, picked the wrong apartment, and passed out on their couch, I don't see what the big deal is here.
Kiko is also a natural when it comes to interviews. When asked where the name Kiko came from he gave a simple yet insightful answer, "Idk it's the name my parents gave me". Kiko also crushed his post game interview after the Ducks rose bowl victory against Wisconsin a couple years back. Check that video out here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWSukoTEZCU, The Kiko part starts at the 5:50 mark. Also check out a snippet of his ESPN interview here http://bustedcoverage.com/2013/09/30/kiko-alonso-stoned/.
Kiko is my newest NFL man crush. Im pretty torn up that the Pats didn't grab this guy. I can now only dream of what a Kiko Alonso and Gronk combination would be like. Strongman competitions in the locker room, pre-game wrestling matches the possibilities are literally endless. Kiko must be Gronk's long lost younger brother. I'd pay money to see these guys take the SAT. I'm not convinced their combined score would reach 1400. Kiko might not be the brightest bulb on the Christmas tree but he is one of the NFL's brightest young defensive stars.
