Recruitment: Reagan picked up offers from Arkansas, Cincinnati, Connecticut, Kentucky, South Florida and Tennessee among others, but he narrowed his choices over the summer to Central Florida and NC State. The Knights were his leader until an unofficial visit to NCSU in June. He verbally committed to the Pack July 25.
Recruiter of record: Running backs coach Des Kitchings.
2013 projection: Reagan is intriguing because he has the skill set to be an offensive tackle but has spent the majority of his high school career playing guard. If he can add strength, he may be ready quicker than most offensive linemen to get on the field, but it is probably a better bet that Reagan will redshirt.
