When University of Arkansas running backs coach Jimmy Smith extended a scholarship offer to running back Kenji Christian, he gave Christian an opportunity to fulfill his dream.
Christian, 6-2, 194 pounds, of Pinson Valley High School in Alabama received the offer from Arkansas on Feb. 11 to go along with others from Duke, Kansas, Southern Mississippi, Kansas State, Alabama-Birmingham, Western Kentucky and others.
He's in the process of learning about Arkansas.
"I don't know much about them, but my dream is to play SEC football," Christian said.
