Blue-Grey Football was established in 1989 and the founders were Gus Bell and his son Erik Bell. Together, they established the brand to help prep prospects from all over the country receive national exposure and increase their chances to secure scholarships to a college, whether that be at the NCAA Division I level, Div. II or III, also NAIA or Junior College.
On a yearly basis, the nation’s best compete in the game, whether the venue has been Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium, Buccaneers’ Raymond James Stadium, Falcons’ Mercedes Benz Stadium, Jaguars’ EverBank Field, Texans’ NRG Stadium or Raiders’ Coliseum.
Blue-Grey Football continues to grow, and grow, as the annual All-American Bowls have become must-see events with college coaches from all over the country interested in the results. Beforehand, of course, the All-American Combines are the big draw.
Super Bowl Champion, Patrick Mahomes (Whitehouse, Tx) played in the 2014 Blue Grey All-American Bowl and he is now the starting quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs and recently signed the richest contract in NFL history of $440 million dollar.
