Good for him. Would love to see more Broncos get opportunities in these post-season games.
Broncos have a strong record of placing outstanding players in these postseason events.
Other MAC players that have accepted invitations so far:
QB Andrew Hendrix (Miami-OH)
WR Dawan Scott (Miami-OH)
K Jeremiah Detmer (Toledo)
RB Jahwan Edwards (Ball State)
Looking forward to Donald putting on a clinic in this one!
I have been watching some of the practices on ESPNU. Just saw Celiscar wearing a gold helmet with white ghost bronco.
The rosters for the game have been released. Celiscar will be playing on the 'American' team:

Other notables:
American team:
QB Rakeem Cato - Marshall
National Team:
QB Andrew Hendrix - Miami (OH)
RB Jahwan Edwards - Ball State
WR Dawan Scott - Miami (OH)
DE Kendall Montgomery - Bowling Green
K Jeremiah Detmer - Toledo
So they put all the MAC players on the National team except for Celiscar. Overall the American team looks stacked though, especially on defense. A lot of good players from good programs.

Game is at 4:00 today on ESPN2!
QB wanted nothing to do with Celiscar on the first drive.
Celiscar just had a good breakup. Announcers said he had a great week of practice.
I am amazed that he isn't getting a bit more attention. Guy has constantly been locked up one on one with some quality receivers. Titus Davis, who is moving up draft boards, was played tougher by Celiscar than pretty much anyone else. Quentin Rollins is considered the better pro prospect by most things I've seen, and it's a decent sized gap. I don't get this at all.

Rollins, as in having played one year and the former point guard for the Redskins?
And celiscar looked GOOD at that bowl. Not only how he played, but he also had the best looking helmet.
Anyone have any updates on Mr. Lockdown?

I believe the DBs don't check-in down in Indy until tomorrow.
Analysis
Strengths Plays smothering brand of coverage. Thick through hips and thighs with power to manhandle slow or weak receivers from press coverage. Works overtime to stay wired to his man. Excels in trail coverage and has the the feet and feel to shut it down against comebacks or outs and swarm the route. Plays the ball with an attacking style and excellent timing to disrupt the catch. Has quick, bouncy feet with desired short area recovery ability. Has no problem throwing himself into the fray in run support.
Weaknesses Average athlete. Gets tilted in coverage by good route runners. Shows marginal recovery speed on extended routes. Too reliant on his hands to corral receivers at the top of their route which could lead to flags on the next level. Doesn't have the deep speed to fade his aggressive tendencies when receivers fool him with varied route speed and get over the top.
NFL Comparison Glover Quin
Bottom Line Physical, ball-hawking cornerback who is at his best in bump and run coverage. Celiscar allowed just 35.7 percent of passes his way to be completed in 2014 and posted 33 passes defensed and seven interceptions over last two seasons. His ball skills are no fluke, but his lack of deep speed and fluidity could limit his draft standing and force him into a zone-based defense. It's hard to get a read on his open-field instincts, but it wouldn't surprise to see a team consider him at safety in the pros.
-Lance Zierlein
Hopefully Celiscar will Row The Boat and get into the NFL! This gal's counting on it!
