Rocky first year in Canada for Reid
Football
The Buchtelite's Adam Ferrise wrote about Jermaine Reid's first year in the Canadian Football League.
Reid got hurt last season, but he hopes his next year in "America Jr." will be more productive, maybe even catching the eyes of NFL scouts.
Speaking of the Buchtelite, props to Vincent Dorsey, who recently won his second John S. Knight Scholarship. It's good to see Akron pumping out solid writers like Ferrise and Dorsey, even though the university lacks a journalism school.
And while we're talking about Buchtelite people (or former ones), here is the link to Dan Kadar's Browns blog.
