Junior running back Omarion Hampton was named to the first team and junior tight end Bryson Nesbit was named to the second team. Hampton was the fifth-leading rusher in Division I last season with 1,504 rushing yards, along with 15 touchdowns. Nesbit was the seventh-leading tight end in receiving yards (585 yards, 5 touchdowns), and easily could have moved up the list if Drake Maye didn’t have two other excellent tight ends to target.
