Preseason all conference teams are meaningless fun that reminds us who's got talent in the conference. After all, a long summer can make you forget the big-legged brilliance of Austin Rehkow or how loaded Georgia State is at wide receiver. So thanks, Sun Belt, for releasing your preseason All Sun Belt First and second Teams. You've reminded us once again that the Belt is bursting with playmakers this year.

Larry Rose (New Mexico State Aggies, RB, Jr.)

John Law (Appalachian State Mountaineers, LB, Sr.)

Arkansas State lead the Sun Belt with 12 total selections, twice as many as the 2nd place Louisiana and Appalachian State (six each). Sun Belt coaches voted the Red Wolves to finish second in the conference.

Larry Rose adds Preseason Sun Belt Offensive POY honors in addition to being named to three national preseason watch lists. Rose is the only junior among the four RB selections (Cox, Breida and McGuire are seniors).

John Law's selection as Preseason Sun Belt Defensive POY is a bit of a surprise. Law was not named to any major preseason watch list, and though he finished 2015 with four sacks, that's five fewer than conference leader, Ja'Von Rolland-Jones.

Idaho's powerful place kicker, Austin Rehkow, earned two First Team selections (Kicker and Punter). Arkansas State's Blaise Taylor also earned two positions, but one for First Team (Kick Returner) and one for Second Team (defensive back).

Eight of twelve First Team defensive positions are occupied by Red Wolves, Mountaineers, and Eagles. The three defensive units should be entertaining to watch.

Louisiana placed only one player on the preseason Sun Belt First Team (Savion Brown, DB), but placed five on the Second Team, including four on defense.
