No no... I think you read me wrong. He had a great influence on people of all ages. That's just the way that kid was. Sorry rj, didn't mean to imply anything else. He was a great kid! And I enjoyed your post.

Agreed. I was 27 at the time of Chris's death, already six yeas out of Iowa, but he definitely left an imprint on me. I don't think about him every day, but I will never forget him, if that makes any sense.

I still have VHS tapes that include the coverage afterward, from the funeral and the MSU game and the IU game @ CHA. I haven't watched them in almost 20 years. It'd be an emotional tidal wave, like the superb videos above that Spliff posted.
