The first wave of invitations to the NFL Scouting Combine, hosted in Indianapolis by the Indianapolis Colts, were recently sent out and 13 former Offense-Defense Bowl participants are on the initial list.
Georgia guard Cordy Glenn, South Carolina defensive tackle Travian Robertson, and Georgia cornerback Brandon Boykin represent the SEC.
Coming from the Big 12 are Texas A&M wide receiver Jeff Fuller and running back Cyrus Gray. Texas linebacker Keenan Robinson also made the cut.
Representing O-D from the Pac-12 is Washington defensive tackle Alameda Ta'amu and Arizona State cornerback Omar Bolden.
Wisconsin wide receiver Nick Toon leads the way as the sole Big Ten representative.
Two players who started out at major programs but transferred down to non FBS programs are California PA guard Rishaw Johnson, an Ole Miss transfer, and Richmond quarterback Aaron Corp, a Southern Cal transfer, round out the group of alumni invited.
The list could grow as more will be invited after the deadline for underclassmen to declare.
"These young men represented Offense-Defense very well in our game and have been leaders for their college programs, "said Offense-Defense President Rick Whittier, "All of these guys clearly have the ability to play in the NFL and we are proud to call them alumni of our game."
