Edgerrin James honored by ACC

Former Hurricanes running back Edgerrin James was one of 15 players named to the 2013 ACC Football Legends Class, the conference announced Wednesday.

The Legends Class will be honored during the ACC Championship game on Dec. 7 at Charlotte’s Bank of America Stadium. James will be recognized by Miami at the school’s Nov. 23 home finale against Virginia.

James, who lives in Orlando, ran for 2,690 yards in three seasons at UM and is the only running back in school history to record multiple 1,000-yard seasons. The fourth overall pick in the 1999 NFL draft, he played 11 years in the NFL, mostly with the Indianapolis Colts. He was a four-time Pro Bowl selection and a member of the NFL All-Decade Team for the 2000s.
