The East-West Shrine Bowl is a college football tradition that stretches back nearly a full century to 1925 and is the longest-running college all-star football game in the nation. The annual event provides a venue for the top college players to show off their talents in front of NFL scouts as well as a national audience of fans, while also promoting the Shriners Children’s organization and its mission to provide excellent specialty care for children

Recently, the organization released its watch list for 1,000 of the top players on the collegiate gridiron, which included eight Florida Gators. Those named include outside linebacker [autotag]Brenton Cox Jr[/autotag]., safety [autotag]Trey Dean III[/autotag], offensive tackle [autotag]Richard Gouraige[/autotag], inside linebacker [autotag]Ventrell Miller[/autotag], wide receivers [autotag]Ricky Pearsall[/autotag] and [autotag]Justin Shorter[/autotag], as well as offensive guards [autotag]O’Cyrus Torrence[/autotag] and [autotag]Ethan White[/autotag].
