One of my guilty weekend pleasures is blowing off homework, curling up with a bowl of let’s-pretend-it’s-not-Ramen noodles, and watching reruns of the HBO classic, Sex & the City.

When the 6’5 offensive tackle isn’t protecting the quarterback on game day, you can find sophomore Kiaro Holts either in the Undergraduate Library studying or in his room watching Netflix. The Communications major from Indiana fell in love with UNC’s diversity and friendly student body. Not to mention, Kiaro has found his place with the brotherhood of UNC football. “It’s really comforting to know that I am a part of a brotherhood that will last my whole life,” Kiaro said. Football is more than just putting on the Carolina Blue jersey on game days for Kiaro, though. It’s a challenge to become a better person and to do something positive during his stay at Carolina.
