Related Topics: September 11 attacks

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the WVU football team was having success as head coach Don Nehlen was truly establishing the program. One of Nehlen’s reliable quarterbacks of that era was Chris Gray. He hailed from Manalapan, New Jersey and came to the WVU football team for a taste of Division I football.

Gray was a reliable back up who played in a total of 13 games for the Mountaineers. Gray was also one of the poor souls working in the World Trade Center in New York City. He passed away at the age of 32.
