Nice story on McClain in Atlanta

''He looks like a first-round pick to me,'' Atlanta safety William Moore said Wednesday. ''Dude can play some ball.''

''I could tell he's a heck of an athlete,'' Moore said. ''Coach Lewis gave us the heads up before he came in. He said, 'We got us a steal right there.' From day one, Robert stepped in there and just took over. He's been lights out already, and I know for sure he's going to get better down the stretch.''

Hate the falcons, but that's great news for him and UConn.

Reggie had to prove himself at Uconn and now in the pros. He doesn't have the classic size or speed but dude's a baller.

Maybe not size, but McClain is pretty darn fast.

Another one of HCRE's finds. How many stars was he?

 

[ZooCougar]

Two I think.

I remember the year we signed him. I think it was one of the first years if not the first year Edsall started doing the signing day event at the Rent. With each of the coaches getting up to talk about the kids they signed.

Some of the guys here posted about Ambrose talking about McClain. One of his highlight videos had him juking a 4 star recruit out of his shoes and running away from him making him look foolish.

He was two stars and I'm pretty sure a RB . IIRC we were expecting the next coming of Terry Caulley because he came from the same area of Maryland as well.
