Guard Josh LeRibeus has been invited to play in the East-West Shrine game Jan. 21.
Cornerback Richard Crawford said he has been invited to play in the NFL Players Association game in Los Angeles the same day.
Not sure about other seniors getting invitations, but will post them as they become known.

Good for LeRib, he'll end up being the best pro of our 2011 o-line starters.

Wasn't Frazier going to one or was that just an award.

i know it's early, but are any of these guys NFL combine guys?
i would think that Thompson might get an invite, maybe LeRib and/or Beach?

wow, East West Shrine game, thats a pretty big deal. congrats to Josh. I think he will be drafted somewhere in the 3rd-4th round range.
Thompson probably around the 4th round as well.

I think Beach for sure. I hear he's being projected as a guard.

Beasley deserves it. The guy was a stud for us. An all star game would be a great showcase for him to get some looks

Agreed. He was a great producer and will be great in the NFL as a slot

I read somewhere that Frazier received an NFLPA all-star game invite as well.

Josh is another one of the guys I've been watching for since he committed.
I can still remember his photo in the Dallas paper of him signing and I thought that he would do well at SMU. I hope he makes it in the pros.
I hope a lot of the guys do something good in sports.

He is reliable and a nice fit in the slot (not as much as ES was); IMO, I think his best option would be to go the CFL route and dominant and get NFL looks if undrafted.

man, i'm sick of those comparisons.
it's like calling a white RB "throwback" or "blue collar"
