The reason why: Reagor was a huge signing-day coup who lived up to his billing as a blue-chip recruit. Powerfully built at 6-foot-2 and 265 pounds, Reagor was perhaps Tech’s best-ever combo end — strong against the run, able to rush the passer — and he did it from day one. In the first quarter of his first game at Penn State, Reagor caused a fumble that teammate Shawn Banks recovered for a touchdown.
