As Florida Atlantic comes off its most successful season in program history, the players who thrived in Lane Kiffin’s first season at the helm are starting to be found on major preseason football watch lists.
Athlon Sports announced Thursday that 15 Owls — including three players from Palm Beach County — were named to the outlet’s All-Conference USA preseason team. FAU’s 15 players, who were named to a total of 16 positions, are the most of any C-USA team, followed by Middle Tennessee and Old Dominion with 11 apiece
The list is led by Palm Beach County alum and AP All-American Devin Singletary (American Heritage), as well as former Seminole Ridge stars Kerrith Whyte and Jalen Young.
