The easy pick for defensive Shrine Game MVP is a Miami player with a star-studded past.
Anthony Chickillo was a big-name recruit once upon a time for the Hurricanes who was actually named MVP of a high school All-American game over and above last year's first-round pick, Jadeveon Clowney. Between that game and a fantastic high school career, Chickillo had an aura of unblockability around him.
Then his Miami career came and went with a thud—or maybe crickets.
Part of that was alluded to on the Shrine Game broadcast, where Chickillo made no bones about his preference in the 4-3 defense used by his East team. It allowed him more space and pass-rushing mentality than Miami's 3-4, two-gapping front, and he showcased incredible talent once again.
He was everywhere, pressuring the West quarterbacks not only around the edge, but on stunts and bull rushes as well. He's raw, but the natural ability is definitely still there.
