| Marell Evans (#9) will play in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl |
The NFLPA Collegiate Bowl will be played on Saturday, January 21, 2012, at 3:00 p.m. Michigan linebacker Marell Evans will be participating, despite being ineligible this past season after transferring back to Michigan from Hampton.
Players who might be of interest to Michigan fans:
DeMarlo Belcher - WR - Indiana
Jarrett Boykin - WR - Virginia Tech
Mike Caputo - OG - Nebraska
Marell Evans - LB - Michigan
Jason Ford - RB - Illinois
Gerald Gooden - DE - Purdue
Da'Jon McKnight - WR - Minnesota
Bryce McNaul - LB - Northwestern
Andrew Szczerba - TE - Penn State
There will be no NFL scouts at this game. Hopefully the players enjoy their experiences nonetheless.
ReplyDeleteThat's strange. I read that 50 or so NFL scouts would be at the Casino Del Sol contest. I bet that a few end up attending or at least watching the tape. Should be fun for Evans either way since he was ineligible last year.
ReplyDeleteIt's because there are draft-eligible juniors playing in the game. NFL scouts are not permitted to interact with draft-eligible juniors.

That makes more sense. Thanks for the info and link.
ReplyDeleteNo problem. I used to want to be an agent so I know the rules pretty well. I thought this was going to be an issue when they first announced the bowl and it turned out to be right.
