The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Published on: 12/26/07
Four recruits with ties to Georgia will participate in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl on Saturday Jan. 5 at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Tex.
The contest, which showcases some of the nation’s top football talent in the class of 2008, will be televised live on NBC (Channel 11 in Atlanta) at 1 p.m.
Participants on the east squad include Jefferson County offensive lineman A.J. Harmon, who has committed to Clemson.
He will be joined on the east roster by Norcross receiver Brice Butler, who plans to sign with Southern Cal in February.
Georgia fans will get a preview of two future Bulldogs.
A pair of east teammates, Statesboro defensive lineman DeAngelo Tyson and Cardinal Gibbons (Fort Lauderdale, Fla.) kicker Blair Walsh, are part of Georgia’s current recruiting class, which is ranked second-best in the nation by Scout.com and third overall by Rivals.com.
Matt Patchan, an offensive lineman from Armwood (Sefner, Fla.) High, may be forced to sit out the All-American Bowl. Rivals.com is reporting that the 6-foot-7, 265-pound tackle has mononucleosis.
Patchan, who earlier this year briefly considered a scholarship offer from Georgia, is expected to choose between Florida, LSU and Miami.
