All American Games?

[crparker21]

Sorry if there is a thread about this, I seached and didn't see this exact topic. What players are suppose to announce today and tomorrow in the 2 games and are we in on any of these guys. I saw something on KNS site the other day but wasn't very helpful(imagine that).

Do we have any kids at the U.S. Army All-American bowl that's coming on now?

Boyd is playing in the game today though. It will be interesting to see how he does.

Randall Carroll, Patrick Patterson, Aubrey Phillips. There might be some more, I just can't think of anyone else at the moment.

None of them are announcing today.

Je'Ron Stokes also, he'll be starting WR for the East.

Thanks for the info. I'll flip over from the International Bowl and watch this game.

How do they determine who plays in which?

 

[Voldaddy]

Jesus, DJ Fluker is a monster.

 

[Volsguy12]

Nice catch by Patrick Patterson.

ESPN and NBC want to have the better game so both invite stud recruits to their game. They don't really determine it, but most of the players in the UA game are from the South.

If you're committed to Notre Dame, good chance you'll be in the Army game.

 

[The Dude]

They predict more and more will choose the ESPN one as long as they have Under Armour and NBC has Russell.

 

[utkdave]

Stokes with a good grab...we really need to hold onto him.

 

[The Dude]

This is from an article this time last year:

Though the reasons may sound somewhat trivial, the educated guess is that the Under Armour game, which is in partnership with ESPN, will siphon more talent from the Army game next year. High school football players, for the most part, want to be on TV, and they don't want to wear Russell.

They just said Stokes has a visit for Michigan coming up. I was aware that he was waivering on his commitment to us but I did not even know Michigan was in the running.
