"It really helped him get drafted earlier because he's such a good kid," Matthews said. "We told teams that we never had a problem with him, that he's a hard worker and that he's loyal." Keaton also doesn't crack under pressure. Not once was there a nervous twitch when he rushed his way to the MVP of the Blue-Gray All-Star game. His boots didn't shake when he turned the combine upside down with his stellar performance. It can be guaranteed that Keaton will not be losing sleep thinking about NFL linebackers. He can thank his son, Armond, for that. "There really isn't any big pressure," Keaton said. "Pres- sure is when you have a little boy that's four years old that's depending on you to do your part.
