In 2007, he sat out to fulfill the transfer rule. In 2008 Chris played in all 13 games, starting six at FS and appeared on all four special teams and was the holder for all field goals and PAT attempts. He ranked seventh on the team with 45 tackles (27 solo, 18 assisted.) 2009 is shaping up as a break out season for Chris.

Heady and versatile. Can play offense, defense and valuable on special teams. Just enough size, speed and nastiness to be considered a FS prospect at the next level. Big play hitter and solid tackler. Emotional leader who gives good effort on every snap.

Not real big, and can not play the enforcer role at the next level. Average in pass defense despite adequate technique and understanding of what the opponent is trying to do. Looks like a career nickel back and backup if he makes a roster.

7th-rounder or priority UDFA.
