We did not see Copper on the Shrine Bowl roster.
Was he a late addition?
Or did he not go through the preseason qualifying?

And Neal was on the roster but did not see him play. What is the story there?
He was featured on the Shrine Bowl promo ads.
Harrison? No Shrine Bowl?

I don’t remember Neal being introduced or being in the game. I’m sure he wasn’t. Maybe the Reidsville guys will know. SC sure seems to take the game serious. We had about 22 that went to support our kid. Tarboro had a good crowd too. We all sat together.
I think I set a personal record yesterday. After the game just down from the school I filled my truck up gas was 2:09. I left there and drove all the way home 5 hours without stopping. I drank one drink during the game and I hit the restroom before leaving the stadium. I don’t know that I have ever driven 5 hours without a break for something!

I think Dionte was on the roster. Kendre is packing up for Oregon. He's going to watch his future teammates play for a National Championship. You know it's quite and honor to qualify for the tournament. Only the VERY best and most eligible teams even make the field. Of course there is always going to be those few who actually know nothing about tournament selection that will belly ache, for many years, over their team not making the field. Come to think of it I don't know anyone who could be so immature do you.

How did DJ do?
Played safety on defense. He missed 2 tackles he should have made. But he also had 3 or 4 tackles. The announcer at times appeared to have the rosters confused and DJ announced as having a catch that he didn’t do. Hopefully they had a different person doing all the stats that didn’t go by what was being announced. #40 was the best looking kid NC had. Played on defense at linebacker. Kid was solid all day. I’ll have to look him up. I was too tight to buy a program.

Most kids that are enrolling early decline to play in this. It’s an opportunity (bad) to possibly get hurt.

Cameron Cartlidge played at Walkertown. Kason Jones from Mountain Heritage was on roster
I didn’t buy a program and the rosters online don’t have numbers on them. I got that info from an article on the game but really it don’t surprise me the info is incorrect. I’ve already mentioned about that earlier in this thread. The kid I’m talking about was #40.

We are still curious as to why Neal was not in the Shrine Bowl.
Don’t think he enrolled early.
"We" are not curious why he did not or anyone else did. It is actually, none, zero, nada, any of your business. I wonder why you even care. Not really, I know why you care. I also wonder why, I care that you care. I guess it is because I truly care for you, as I do any mentally infirm person. Bless you my childish one.

Tyreek cooper had 105 catches for 2,242 yards and 33 receiving touchdowns. That doesn't scream overrated at all. They didn't play cupcakes either, in fact one of the teams that beat them in the regular season, won a state championship 🥱.
