Chris needs to become more disciplined in his everyday life. The little things need to be more important to him. Chris is a big play guy who has shown incredible potential, but one who can get even better. I liked what I saw in the spring. He became a much better blocker and missed fewer assignments. <br>Chris took this charge by Coach McBride to heart. His weight had climbed to 295 and Offensive Coordinator, Fred Graves, began calling Chris everyday.  I came back to Utah last summer, said Chris,  because of Coach Graves.  I promised him and I had to keep my promise. If you promise something, you have an obligation to keep that promise. <br> Last summer I worked out harder than ever before. I got stronger really fast. I feel really light on my feet now that my weight is down to 268 pounds. I m glad I came back. If everybody would see me workout, coach Graves told me, they would respect me more. It s also better to be leaner. Chris is now running a 4.6 forty with a 33 vertical jump. His strength is up to a 455 Bench, a 200 Squat, a 328 Power Clean and 345-pound Incline.<br> Chris shook his head,  I don t think anything when people say that I m so fast being so big because I have so many friends that can do the same thing. We have 300 pounders in my neighborhood even quicker than I am. <br>Chris realizes the importance of his education and what it means to his future. He turns his assignments in on time and has a 2.7 GPA.  I want to be a teacher and work with kids back home in Hawaii, said Chris.  A lot of kids are hard headed like me. The age I like best is from 10 to 12. That s when they start to change. In my neighborhood there are gangs and drugs. The last time I went home two kids got killed in a gang war right in front of my home.<br> I d like to be an elementary school teacher and coach little league football. Chris feels little league would be more fun.  Whatever happens with money or pro ball, I d still want to teach. I m happy with a simple life. <br>Chris would be also happy with a Luau everyday. He doesn t eat poi but does eat taro and bakes it like a potato. He doesn t particularly like food here on the mainland. Chris is trying to eat a lot of salads now to keep his weight down.  But it is real hard, admitted Chris. You should have seen Chris eyes light up when I told him about the new BFS nutrition plan explained in this journal.<br> Chris has always tried to keep himself clean as far as drugs and alcohol.  I have never had a drink in high school or here at Utah, confided Chris.  My whole life people have always asked me to drink. But if people push you about it, they aren t really your friends. My teammates don t bother me here at Utah. They tell me it is cool that I don t drink. <br>Chris laughed,  Maybe I would drink if you could find somebody tough enough to beat up my mom but I don t think so. Anyway, my mom and brothers would beat me up bad if I were to be stupid and drink. That s why I never touched one drop of beer in high school. <br><br> In my neighborhood a lot of people smoke Marijuana along with a lot of cousins. They would never ask me to smoke because of my mom. They knew better. In my neighborhood she is known. Mrs. Ma afala is 6-1, 225 pounds and when she speaks people listen. Chris dad was also big at 5 11, 240 pounds.<br> I ve changed this year, said Chris with determination.  I look to the future of being a teacher.
