South Dakota State and Colorado State had been the only schools there to watch Caleb that day, but soon many others came calling, including high-major interest from Nebraska, Oklahoma State and Texas Tech.
“I was in love with Caleb and his family,” says Tim Miles, then the coach at Nebraska. “He’s the son of a coach, great legs, big-time shooting range and the kind of kid who could stay in front of people at a high-major level. I thought he was an important player and could play at the Big Ten level.”

And he had plenty of options. He heard from Texas Tech, Oklahoma State and Nebraska for a second time in addition to Illinois, Wisconsin, Northwestern and Missouri. “I didn’t know the availability of even open spots,” Chris says. “Wow, it’s been pretty awesome. I told the assistant coach at Illinois, I didn’t think I’d ever tell Illinois that we weren’t interested just based on location and the league that you play in. There are no games that are very close.”
