Anyone else find it odd, frustrating, ridiculous, pathetic, etc. that there still has not been an announcement of any Troy players participating in the Senior Bowl? To date there have been 44 announced participants from all over the country at various levels of competition. I find it even more frustrating that a certain LB who is now the record holder for the most tackles in the history of FBS and happens to have grown up in Mobile has not been announced. Any other participants doing a national radio show today with one of the biggest names in sports talk? I did not think so, just Carlton Martial. Anyway, as you can tell, it bothers the crap out of me and just wondering everyone else's thoughts.

Sure we all believe #2 is the best ever to wear a Troy uniform and believe he should get a shot. Not surprised he wasn’t one of the first invitations. I think he will eventually get an invite given his local connection. Even if he doesn’t, someone will give him a shot. Stay calm. Be patient.

Regardless of his "NFL probability" it is an absolute travesty that Carlton hasn't received his invitation yet. When something like this jumps into the lap of the Senior Bowl selection committee, they should know how to make the easiest decision of their whole selection process.

As a business dude, I don't see how Nagy and company can pass on the success story that is Carlton Martial AND the fact that he is a 2 time finalist for the Burlsworth trophy, recrod for tackles and a Mobile native! I can't make that work in my head that they would not have him in their top 5 invites.

I know the senior is very important and a great honor to be there. Of course Carlton should be there along with Choloh. But I personally enjoy the combine more and hope to see several Trojans there

The NFL teams dictate, for the vast majority of which players they want to see matched up with other players. Your frustration should be directed toward the NFL teams. Though the years, There are a ton of players that won awards that didn’t get invite to the Bowl But the Senior Bowl guys always have a few invitations in their back pocket and do get to select some. Still believe he gets an invitation and also believe #2 will get a shot in the NFL.
