Talking College Football History: Michael Reid

We take the time machine back to the mid-1980s to Madison, Wisconsin this week with our guest Michael Reid.  Mike went to high school in southern Georgia and found his way to Madison which is a story in and of itself.  He played at Wisconsin from 1983-1986 at the linebacker position.  Dave McClain was the head coach but died unexpectedly in April before Mike's senior season.  He and the defense adjusted well as all 4 linebackers were drafted into the NFL in 1987.  Mike was drafted by the Atlanta Falcons and was part of the 1991 Falcons team that made the NFC playoffs with secondary players Deion Sanders, Brian Jordan, Tim McKyer and Scott Case, coached by Jerry Glanville.  Enjoy this look back to the mid-1980s Wisconsin football with Mike Reid.
