The All-American kid will play in an All-American Bowl.
Plant quarterback Aaron Murray has received a lot of offers, but one of the most prestigious ones came on Monday. Murray accepted an invitation to play in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl. Hillsborough County’s leading passer is one of the first national invites for the event.
“It’s a great tradition because you get to see so many stars,” Murray said.
A selection committee made up of several recruiting experts interview more than 4,000 potential Bowl participants before officially nominating 400 of the top seniors in the nation. From that list, 84 are selected to play in the annual game, which is nationally televised.
A high-ranking Army official will be a part of a formal ceremony at the school in the coming months.
Former Armwood offensive lineman Matt Patchan was selected last year, but was unable to play in the game. Former quarterbacks who have participated include Florida’s Tim Tebow and Terrelle Pryor.
Murray just wrapped up a busy weekend. On Saturday, he participated in the quarterbacks clinic with Tampa Bay Bucs coach Jon Gruden and former Bucs quarterback Doug Williams. On Sunday, Murray helped lead a team comprised of Panthers teammates Orson Charles and Hunter Baldwin, Chamberlain’s Anthony Williams and players from Pahokee, Lake Region, Titusville and King’s Academy to victory at a 7-on-7 tournament at USF.
“Football’s always fun for me,” Murray said of his busy schedule. “We make sure things don’t get too hectic. I want to enjoy this process.”
In the coming months, Murray is expected to narrow his more than 50 Division I offers to about 10. He will announce his college decision before the start of his senior season. Murray is also on schedule to graduate from Plant in December so he can early enroll in college in January.
