Greatest former UNC athlete by state (Connecticut): Brian Chacos

Posted May 18, 2019
Brian Chacos arrived in Chapel Hill as a legacy. His father, Andy Chacos, played at North Carolina in the early 1970s, including on the 1972 ACC championship team, and was a pretty fair player. Brian, however, carved out his own name and path, which continues growing in stature to this day. He’s currently the Major Gift Director at the Ram’s Club. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
