Chris Farasopoulos (born July 20, 1949) is a former American football player. He chose to accept a full and guaranteed football scholarship from Brigham Young University where he was hailed as "the Galloping Greek" by the Arizona Republic. Best known for his agility and speed at BYU, Farasopoulos played defensive back as well as punt and kickoff return. In 1968, he set a Western Athletic Conference record for average yards returned per kickoff at 27.2, a record that stood until Chad Owens's 29.4 average yards per return years later. After selecting John Riggins and John Mooring in the first and second rounds of the 1971 NFL draft, the New York Jets chose Farasopoulos in the third round with the 58th pick overall.
1971-1973 New York Jets
