Eight Florida football players, including sophomore starting quarterback D.J. Lagway, earned preseason coaches All-SEC honors on August 19.

The 6-foot-3, 247-pound Lagway, who began taking part in 11-on-11 drills this week in his latest recovery from a calf straight, was named a third team, All-SEC selection at quarterback behind LSU's Garrett Nussmeier (first team) and South Carolina's LaNorris Sellers (second team).

Lagway went 6-1 as a starter last season, passing for 1,915 yards with 12 touchdowns to nine interceptions, including 12 completions of 40 yards or more. He didn't make the media's preseason All-SEC team, which was voted on last month at SEC Football Media Days in Atlanta.
