Chris Flaig brought depth, durability, and academic discipline to FIU’s offensive line
In the 2016 season, Chris Flaig appeared in four games for FIU and helped an offensive line that powered 4,503 total yards, 1,783 rushing yards, and 517 yards in a win over Middle Tennessee—clear signs he fit a physical, productive front[1]. His profile stands out less for flashy stats and more for trench-value traits: dependable line play, team-first toughness, and academic consistency, as he also earned a spot on the C-USA Commissioner’s Academic Honor Roll[1]. One important note for roster fit: his career was shaped by an epilepsy-related interruption before he returned to the program, so durability/medical context matters when evaluating him[2].
