Mac Jones named Academic All-America Football Team Member of the Year

Alabama’s Mac Jones and Landon Dickerson were both named to the 2020-21 CoSIDA Academic All-America Division I Football First Team, while Jones was named the Football Academic All-American of the Year, the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) announced Monday.

The duo earned the elite scholastic honors after helping lead the Crimson Tide to its 18th national football title and 28th Southeastern Conference championship during the 2020 season.

Alabama is one of just three schools, along with Boise State and Coastal Carolina, to have more than one player earn first-team honors. The Crimson Tide is also the only team to make the College Football Playoff and have a player earn Academic All-America recognition from this past season.
