ALL-AMERICANS Georgia Southern’s All-Americans represent more than the 75 men who have earned national recognition for their talents. These Eagles, with more than 158 All-America honors shared among them, are the first to give credit to their teammates – the others on the field who pushed them to excel, challenged them to rise above their competitors, and who helped Georgia Southern to victory. At least one individual has appeared at least one AllAmerica list in 26 of the 29 years of the modern era of Georgia Southern Football. With honorees at every position, our All-Americans have added to the tradition of the Georgia Southern. Their efforts and dedication have built a solid foundation on which the next era of Eagle Football may be built.
