"Chris had many other universities interested in                        him, Boston College, Tennessee; pretty much every school that you name was                        interested. “Deciding on UConn was the best move I could have ever made,                        playing for Coach Calhoun. A great motivator, a great teacher, a great                        school and great people. I was close to home. My family had a chance to                        experience all the things that I was going through.” Chris told me that                        what helped him in making his decision to go to UConn was “talking to                        Coach Calhoun and feeling the comfort of starting something that could be                        very good, being in state, the support I could have here and the coach was                        basically saying ‘Chris, I’m going to try to make you a National                        Basketball Association player and this team is going to be your team in                        the following years.’"
                     
One                        of the things that Chris remembers about his days at UConn was that when                        he first started there weren’t very many fans, then the team started to                        win some games and people started to notice them (as he laughed a little)                        and [B]that is when “Husky Mania” came about [/B]and that was a fun time."
