O-D Bowl Leads in Alumni Selected to 2012 Senior Bowl

The Senior Bowl is considered the most prestigious of college all-star games with over 800 NFL personnel expected to attend. This year's game will take place on January 28th, 2012 at 3pm from Ladd-Peebles Stadium in Mobile, Alabama. The game will also feature more alumni from Offense-Defense than any other High School All-America Game.

Former O-D All-Americans slated to participate include Brandon Boykin (Georgia), Jamell Fleming (Oklahoma), Jeff Fuller (Texas A&M), Cordy Glenn (Georgia), Cyrus Gray (Texas A&M), Keenan Robinson (Texas), Alameda Ta'amu (Washington), and Nick Toon (Wisconsin).

Offense-Defense has more representatives selected than any of the other prestigious all-star games with Under Armour boasting just six alumni while the U.S. Army All-American Bowl has five.

"This just goes to show the caliber of talent we have had in our game and is something we are very proud of - seeing so many former players with the opportunity to play in the NFL, "said Offense-Defense President Rick Whittier, "They are all very deserving of this honor."
