NFLPA Collegiate Bowl- Land Clark
The East-West Shrine game was today but I was unable to catch the referee from that game. It is also usually difficult to find box scores of these games so any help from our insiders on these full crews would be greatly appreciated.
Something interesting to note is the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl and East-West Shrine game both had 8 Officials. For those who don't know these games are run by the NFL and uses NFL rules and mechanics. In the East-West Shrine game they used a CJ just like the NCAA and in the NFLPA game they put the Umpire in the backfield and used 2 BJ's just like the NFL did 3-4 years ago in pre-season. I wonder if the NFL has given more thought to using 8 Officials... I think it would be a great idea and I personally prefer the CJ rather than a U2 or 2 BJ's.

East-West Shrine Game: Referee- Chris Snead (SEC CJ, Previously C-USA and UFL Referee) Umpire- Ramon George (C-USA CJ, Previously C-USA Umpire and SJ) CJ- ? HL- Mike Carr (Big Ten HL) LJ- Jerod Phillips (Big 12 LJ) SJ- Matt Edwards (Big Ten BJ) BJ- Larry Neal (C-USA BJ) FJ- Frank Steratore (Big Ten SJ) Everyone but Steratore was in the ADP last season. It will be interesting to see if Steratore is added to the ADP this coming season. There was also no CJ listed in the Box Score but watching the game there definitely was one. If anybody knows who it was, please post it. I also still cannot find any info on the Officials of the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl besides Land Clark.

FJ and SJ I can understand swapping, but the other positions why can't the NFL just leave them at the position they officiated in NCAA? That being said, Edwards and Carr generally rank at or near the top of their positions in BCS conference so I would feel more comfortable about their transition. Steratore has officiating bloodlines, but he is not the SJ that gets the top B1G Bowl assignment regularly

Senior Bowl:
Referee- Tracy Jones (AAC Referee) Umpire- Steve Woods (Big Ten Umpire) CJ- Mike Morton (ACC Umpire) HL- Maia Chaka (C-USA HL) LJ- Kevin Mar (MWC Referee, former Big 12 LJ) SJ- Lark Jones (C-USA SJ) BJ- Jimmy Russell (SEC BJ) FJ- Alan Eck (Big 12 Referee)
* of these 8 Officials are part of the ADP program, the only two that weren't were Jones and Russell. This is the second straight season Russell has worked a College Football All Star Game so it would not surprise me at all if he were added to the ADP for the 2016 season. I would expect to see at least 3-4 of the current 6 ADP Officials in the NFL next year, specifically Eck, Woods, and Jones.

I think Ramon George was the CJ and Mike Moten (CUSA) was the U.
