North Carolina A&T

Burgins formed the other half of the Aggies fearsome safety duo with Al Barnette. Together, the two safeties owned the defensive backfield, accumulating multiple interceptions. Burgins arrived in AggieLand in 1990 out of Newton-Conover High School. He was a four-year starter for the Aggies at free safety under legendary coach Bill Hayes. Burgins helped the Aggies win back-to-back MEAC titles in 1991 and 1992. 
 
Burgins ended his career as a two-time All-American, becoming one of the few Aggies in school history to earn Associated Press All-American honors (1993). The Sheridan Broadcasting News also named him an All-American in 1994. He also made two first-team All-MEAC honors (1993, '94). Burgins holds the school record for interceptions (20) as he and Barnett finished 1,2 all-time interceptions. He also has the school's single-season record for pass deflections with 17. Burgins is fourth all-time in the MEAC in interceptions and is tied for seventh in interceptions in a season (8).
