James graduated from high school in 1911 and enrolled at Adrian College where he became a star football player. After an outstanding season in 1911, he was elected captain of Adrian's football team for 1912. In December 1911, the Detroit Free Press called him "one of the sensations of the inter-collegiate this year" and "not only one of the best ends the college ever had but also one of the most popular athletes in school."After the 1911 season, James transferred to the University of Michigan to play football under Michigan's legendary head coach Fielding H. Yost. James's Adrian College teammate and "inseparable friend" John Maulbetsch followed James to Ann Arbor in 1913. James played for Yost's Michigan Wolverines football teams from 1912 to 1914.James graduated from the University of Michigan in 1915.

He was commissioned as a second lieutenant and sailed for France in April 1918 as part of the 61st Infantry, Fifth Division. He was promoted to first lieutenant and placed in charge of the Stokes mortar platoon of the headquarters company until October 13, 1918. He then took charge of Company K. On October 14, 1918, while advancing near Sedan, France, in the Verdun sector, James was killed upon being struck by a shell fragment.He was one of three former Michigan Wolverines football players to be killed while serving in World War I.
