Shortest football player proving height doesn't matter (http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/story?section=news/local&id=8824728)

HOUSTON (KTRK) -- When you think of a college football player, big and tall may come to mind. But there's a special player at Rice University changing that image.

At 4-foot-9 and 130 pounds, Rice University's Jayson Carter is literally half the size of most of his teammates.

Carter is from the Houston area and graduated valedictorian from KIPP Academy in 2011.

"You had a pretty good career over at KIPP Academy, didn't you?" we asked Carter.

"Yes," he said.

"A lot of yards a lot of tackles?"

"Ya, I did a whole lot of work at KIPP."

But as soon as he got to Rice, he knew something was missing.

"What was it like when you walked into coach David Bailiff's office that first day and told him that you wanted to walk on?" we asked Carter.

"I had no idea what to say because coming from high school it's if you showed up you are on the team. So it was like having an interview," he said.

"He walked into my office and asked to walk on the team and I think he's probably 4-foot-7 and you just think there's no way. You start researching and you find out he's valedictorian at his high school, you call his high school coach and find out how productive he was in high school and every obstacle I put up he knocked down and so we let him join the football team," Bailiff said.

Carter, who was born with a rare genetic disorder that hindered his growth, is now entering his second season with the Owls. He says opponents shouldn't dismiss him because of his size.

"Believe it or not I can actually handle my own. I mean I know I'm not 5-foot9, 200 pounds but I can make up for it with strength and speed," Carter said.

"He is as hard a working young man there is in the program," Bailiff said.

Right now, Carter is on the scout team but says ultimately he wants to get on the field during a game. And coach Bailiff is working to get him there.

"Obviously if we do it, we want it to be in a roll where he can help this football team and that's how he wants it too," Bailiff said.

Carter isn't the only short football player in Houston.

Houston Texans return specialist Trindon Holiday stands only 5-foot-5, making him the shortest player in the NFL. But his height hasn't stopped him from making an impact on special teams.

Carter knows that getting to the NFLwon't be easy. But even in football size isn't everything and "heart" can't be measured by how tall you stand.

"I have a long way go before I get there. I need to be three steps faster, 20 pounds heavier and 2 inches taller," Carter said.

Carter will be out there this weekend as they owls get ready to take on the 0 and 3 cougars in the annual bayou bucket.

I feel bad for the kids at Sunnyside. The UIL has sent the lambs to slaughter.

This game is a joke, KIPP should just forfeit to save themselves from injury and embarrassment

They have invoked the rule, so no one can talk about crimes they witnessed tonight. Those poor Kipp kids just want a good public education and LaMarque gone done and gave em "dain brammage" from the chronic wood laying that went down tonight.

And LM took it easy on them.It is always tough to watch a contest when you know there is a huge mismatch in programs. I will say this, I was proud to watch the Sunnyside players give it their all until the final play. With no seniors on the team and being the first year of varsity ball, they played a clean game. No cheap shots, no taunting and above all they appeared to be very well coached. My hat goes off to the young men of Sunnyside who play for the love of the game.

Well put. My thoughts exactly. Takes a lot of heart to keep walking out on that field pretty much knowing the outcome. I'll tip my hat to those boys for that.
