#88 John Law (Sr.) – Undisputed defensive leader John Law was second on the team in tackles last season with 72, adding four sacks and two interceptions to fill out the stat sheet. Because of those numbers and the potential on and off the field, Law was named preseason Sun Belt Defensive Player of the Year. Law has the most tackles of any active Sun Belt player. Before the season started his 236 career tackles had him at 20th in the country among active student athletes. Also, Law, who suffered from a nagging on-again-off-again lower-body injury has fully recovered.
