PrintIf Reggie Pegram follows the path of Ralph Bolden, he could be in for a big year this season. In 2008 Bolden played, but barely amassed 28 yards on 16 carries. He then exploded in 2009. I don't expect the same from Pegram this year since he is behind Bolden and Akeem Shavers, but I would certainly take it.
Reggie Pegram -So.
Hometown: Terrell, TX (James Madison HS)
Running back
5'10", 215 pounds
2011 Projection: contributor at running back
Only incoming freshman Brandon Cottom is a bigger running back than Pegram currently on the roster. I could see Pegram becoming more of a fullback in the future, especially with Jared Crank graduating this season. Pegram does enter this year with experience too. He played in all 12 games last season, mostly on special teams. He rushed six times for seven yards.
In high school he had fantastic stats for James Madison High in Texas. He ran for 1,394 yards and 15 touchdowns as his team made the Texas State playoffs. He also ran track and played basketball. As a junior he also rushed for over 1,000. the potential is there for him to be a solid back.

The Boston Celtics will be in an intriguing situation when the lockout lifts. Will they still be able to put together another championship run? The good news is that E`Twaun Moore could be a nice lose cost option to fill out the roster.

Raphael Davis to La Lumiere?
Best news I’ve heard in a little bit. That is a HUGE shift for him. If he still lights up the scoreboard there, then we should be extremely excited to see him play here.
Reaction images? I got 'em
Simpson on Davis: "That dude, he can score on anybody."
Maybe we shouldn’t keep going after Harris – I mean, along with our other stellar recruits, add Harris? It just wouldn’t be fair…
Reggie Pegram following the path of Raph Bolden?
IMO, there are better odds that Kyle Williams becomes a priest.

Wow... I just noticed that this article about E'Twaun is from the Nashua Telegraph
I grew up with that paper on my kitchen table.
Nashua is directly south of my hometown. It’s in between us and Massachusetts.

It wouldn't be Hudson, would it?

Small world
My wife’s best friend is from Hudson. She was the Alvirne HS valedictorian in 1998 before heading to Miami and her mom still teaches there.
