Former CU coach makes an impact in the life of Chancellor Lee Adams, son of Rae Carruth

Chancellor Lee Adams was never suppose to be born into this world and if it was his father's decision, he would have met the same fate as his mother. 16 years ago, Cherica Adams was driving on a Charlotte, NC road when she was tragically gunned down. The act was orchestrated by her boyfriend, former CU alum & NFL wide receiver, Rae Carruth.

Adams was eight months pregnant and died shortly after the attack, but Chancellor defied the odds to survive.
