Early years

James grew up in South Jordan, Utah, and attended Herriman High School, where he was a member of the football and track and field teams. He was named first-team All-State as a senior at offensive tackle. James was also a three time class 5A state champion in the shot put.[1] He was rated a four-star recruit and committed to play college football at UCLA over offers from Oregon, USC, Ohio State, Oklahoma and Utah.[2]

College career

James was a member of the UCLA Bruins, redshirting his true freshman season. He became a starter during his redshirt freshman season following an injury to Kolton Miller.[3] James started the final 32 games of his collegiate career, appearing in 35 games total.[4] As a redshirt junior, he made the decision to play in the Bruins' week seven game against Arizona and continue his consecutive games started streak despite his father passing away of cancer earlier that week.[5] James declared for the NFL Draft on December 18, 2018, forgoing his final season of NCAA eligibility.[4]
