Clemson DE Is A Hornung Award Candidate

Pierson-El was named a second-team All-America selection and a freshman All-American by several organizations.

BRUSH PRAIRIE, Wash. - Texas junior linebacker Malik Jefferson was named to the preseason watch list for the 2017 Butkus Award on Monday morning. Pugh has reportedly been one of the more improved Seminoles this offseason.

Players on this year's Watch List accounted for 10,724 rushing yards, 16,853 receiving yards, 13,548 kickoff return yards, 4,092 punt return yards, and 394 total tackles in 2016. In testament to his versatility, Wilson is the only active player nationally to register touchdowns covering 80 or more yards via rush, reception and return. Pierson-El has eight career returns of at least 25 yards.

The award is presented annually to the nation's best linebacker by the Butkus Foundation.

Avis Budget Group, Inc. (CAR)
May 5 investment analysts at JP Morgan kept the stock rating at "Neutral" and lowered the price expectation from $49.00 to $24.00. It is positive, as 39 investors sold FLS shares while 129 reduced holdings. 37 funds opened positions while 64 raised stakes.

Fant was the Hilltoppers' third-leading receiver in 2016 with 29 catches for 407 yards and two scores, making for an average of 14 yards per grab.

Berry makes the list along with 22 other seniors, 19 juniors and 3 sophomores.

No Big Ten player has won the award since Ohio State's James Laurinaitis in 2006. They represent 45 universities in 28 states coast-to-coast across the 10 conferences that are part of the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS). He also added three pass breakups, three quarterback pressures and a forced fumble to earn second-team All-Big 12 recognition from the Associated Press.
