OT Tyler Moore - east team

K Nik Sade - east team

CB Tevin Mitchell - west team

CB Charles Jackson - west team

RB Aaron Green - west team

QB Bubba Starling - west team

 

QB Jamal Turner has been selected to play in the under armor all American game, also televised nationally.

 

LB David Santos has been selected to play in the O-D All American game in South Carolina in December.

Hey Tyler how the hell did the other guy come out? Is that a shiner?

Niklas Sade does not look like a football player in those pictures! It was awesome. And yes I know he's a kicker and I'm pumped for him to be the next Alex but it still made me giggle.

Charles Jackson West

 

It keeps getting better and better.

Just added Charles Jackson to the list and included his picture. His little sister is representing the Big Red!!!

 

With Charles selection we now have 6 players in the Army All American game, 1 player in the Under Armour All American game, and 1 player in the O-D All American game.

 

8 our of our 17 commits are all americans... and I have a feeling more are gonna be added.

We might have the most out of any school in the Army All-American game. Im not positive on that, but 6 players at this point is a lot. Ive checked, and we have more then Florida and Ohio State. Not sure who else could have more. Actually, now that I think of it, Texas probably has more.

Jamal Turner also received an invite to the O-D game before Under Armour extended their invite to him.

So is he gonna be playing in both?

No, pretty sure he is going to play in the more prestigeous game, the Under Armour game. I think there may actually be a rule when it comes to participating in these larger All Star games. Don't quote me on that, but I think there is. Also the time constraints with games would make it nearly impossible, as athletes are at each game for up to a week prior to the game.

So far Texas and Nebraska both have 6.

If Wayne Lyons and Todd Peat Jr. were to both commit to Nebraska we'd have 8. I don't see Texas getting many commits at this game due to the fact that they have 2 spots open at this time. They might grab a DE/DT and a DB or WR but that's all I see them going after. They're pretty much done with their 6 Army All American's this year.

I'm not sure how prestige is measured when it comes to these things, but I think the Under Armour game is a notch or two below the Army All-American game IMO. The UA game has only been around for a few years. It was created more as a "marketing" initiative by UA - and to have an all-star game in Florida. It has ESPN as a broadcast partner which is one of the reasons why the ESPN rankings are so messed up...they are partially based on the UA participation. Also, it seems like more of your prima-donna recruits end up there...so they can play in the skills competition and other crap that is televised. Personally, I like the Army AA game better...it's about the game, the bands, our soldiers, etc. The UA game is about the individuals and marketing Under Armour.
