TAMPA, July 20, 2020 – Eight USF student-athletes have been named to Phil Steele's Preseason All-AAC Team, as the respected national publication was distributed this week.
Heading the list of Bulls selected was Tampa native KJ Sails, who earned second-team recognition at cornerback and fourth-team accolades at punt returner after earning first-team honors from Athlon Sports earlier this year. Heading into his senior campaign, and second at USF after transferring from North Carolina, the cornerback earned second team all-conference postseason honors last year, as he led the Bulls with five takeaways and three interceptions while finishing 15th in the conference with nine passes defended along with tallying 42 tackles and returning 12 punts for 117 yards.
