Preseason Coaches All-SEC Team Announced

On Thursday, the SEC announced the coaches’ picks for the preseason All-SEC team.

Senior WR Kalija Lipscomb, who led the SEC in receptions in 2018, was selected to the first team, while two fellow seniors — TE Jared Pinkney, the team’s second-leading pass catcher in 2018, and RB Ke’Shawn Vaughn, who ranked 3rd in the conference in rushing yards on an absurd 7.9 yards per carry in 2018 — were named to the second team.

The lone defensive player selected was on the third team, as the league’s coaches project a breakout year for junior DL Dayo Odeyingbo.
