Sails leads six Bulls named to Athlon Preseason All-Conference List

TAMPA, June 9, 2020 – Heading into its first season under first-year head coach Jeff Scott, and with just one spring practice in the books under Scott, USF football saw six Bulls selected to Athlon Sports' preseason American Athletic All-Conference team.

Tampa native KJ Sails, who organized a "Unity Walk" on Saturday that drew nearly 400 participants, earned first-team recognition heading into his senior campaign and second at USF after transferring from North Carolina. The cornerback earned second-team all-conference honors last season 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.
