Yes, the competition is a step down from the Senior Bowl, but our old friends Jordan Norwood and Lydell Sargeant are doing quite well:

Jordan Norwood (WR-Penn State) - Norwood missed Monday’s practice because he was participating in a skill competition soon to be aired on ESPN, but he showed up Tuesday in mid-season form. His game was indistinguishable from teammate Deon Butler’s at the Shrine Game practices on the whole. Norwood flashed terrific natural quicks and speed, efficient, tight breaks in his routes, and exceptional body control. Norwood sinks his hips low on comebacks, and also uses head and shoulder fakes to create extra separation in his routes. He also gets his head around to locate the ball in flight very quickly and makes most everything look easy. Like Butler, he plays at a high speed, but still completely under control. Most of the defensive backs that tried to cover him were left befuddled, and he capped off the goal line drill with a one-handed, both-feet-in catch in the end zone that no defensive back on earth could have defensed. Norwood is in a class of his own among the WRs in El Paso.

Lydell Sargeant (CB-Penn State) - Sargeant played with the aggressiveness we love to see in corners, jumping routes in 11 on 11s, and destroying Michael Jones on an end zone route when he gave away his intentions.

But of course!

I mean they are on the Texas team (not quite as good as an OMG ESS EEE CEE team, but otherwise better than that wimpy “rest of the nation”)
