Reginald Gerard McGrew was born in 1976, in Mayo. He spent his entire childhood in Mayo, growing up with a love of sports like most kids from the area. While baseball was the biggest sport to many in the community, McGrew found his love in football. He attended Lafayette High School (LHS), where he began to hone his craft and love for the sport.
Eventually, McGrew graduated from LHS and continued his education at the University of Florida. Here, he continued learning from the best about football. In 1995, the Gator's staff decided to “redshirt” him. He played under coach Steve Spurrier on the Florida Gators football team from 1996 u
