MAC participants:

Barnes - BG
Roosevelt - UB
Church - Toledo

Barnes is making strides and getting noticed while Roosevelt is going the other way:
Risers and Fallers - East-West Shrine Game Practice Report

An article on ESPN listed Church as doing very well and said he is one of the top three defensive backs playing in the game tomorrow. He is being projected somewhere between the 3rd and 7th rounds of the draft.

Church has been invited to the NFL scouting combine in March, and Barnes is hoping an impressive showing tomorrow gets him an invite as well. Good luck to all three former MAC players!

Is he possibly on the West team? I was told that Barnes, Church, and Roosevelt are the only MAC participants on the East squad.

The Shrine Game website says Thad Turner is a CB for Ohio State. That's probably why he was left out of the Blade article that I got the three players from.

Please accept my apologies.

Yes, he is listed on the West roster.

Hard to believe there's not one player from Temple.

Well yes, but we have some very talented seniors like NT Andre Neblett, OT Devin Tyler, S Dominique Harris, and LB Alex Joseph. TE Steve Maneri didn't do much in the receiving game because of our offense, but he's a great blocker, and should get NFL looks because of that. Neblett will be in the Texas vs. the Nation Senior All Star Game, though.
