The DeSoto Eagles are 100% used to big names coming in and out of their doors, and every year they have colleges beating down their doors. Two of next year’s stars, Byron Hanspard and Kelan Walker, have already received one of the highest honors in the nation: an invitation to the U.S. Army All-American Bowl.

Now, this doesn’t mean that both will appear in the bowl, it simply means they have been nominated. Should they accept, they will be a part of what will be the U.S. Army’s last year sponsoring the bowl.
From the inbox: 2018 will mark the final year of the U.S. Army's title sponsorship of the U.S. Army All American Bowl.

Regardless of who sponsors the All-American bowls, you can rest assured that DeSoto will send their players to them.
