  Georgia State offensive line standout Shamarious Gilmore was named to Phil Steele's 2020 Preseason All-Sun Belt Conference first team, headlining a group of 11 Panthers honored in the annual preseason magazine. Gilmore, a senior from Riverdale, Ga., and Drew High School, is a three-year starter at left guard who has been named All-Sun Belt following each of his first three seasons. Earlier this summer, he also made Athlon Sports' Preseason All-Sun Belt first team. Phil Steele's All-Sun Belt second team features GSU senior tight end Roger Carter and junior cornerback Quavian White. - Georgia State Football

  Trajan Stephens-McQueen plans to use his voice, as well as his physical skills, to help improve the quality of the Georgia State defense next season. Before the cancellation of spring practice, Stephens-McQueen had become a new vocal leader for the Panthers. The team's top tackler in 2019 embraced his role of increased leadership and was eager to become a guiding force on defense. "We've definitely got new leaders emerging, making us try to come together as one this year," Stephens-McQueen said then. "After taking a backseat to Ed Curney (who graduated), it's my last year, and I'm having to be the voice, talking every practice and being the one who brings the energy from the time we get here until the time we leave. And I'm loving that the guys are following me and supporting me fully, and I'm loving the senior experience."

The Charlotte native was a backup at inside linebacker during his first two seasons, but blossomed as a junior. He led the team in tackles (110), falling only six stops short of the single-season record set by Joseph Peterson in 2015, and had 8.5 tackles for loss. He ranked fifth in the Sun Belt Conference with 8.5 tackles per game. Stephens-McQueen's best effort came on a rainy night against Army at Georgia State Stadium. He set the school record with 20 tackles, 10 of them solo stops, and was named Sun Belt Defensive Player of the Week. It was one of four games in which he had double-digit tackles. Unlike some modern players, who prefer to avoid contact, Stephens-McQueen (6-foot-1, 230 pounds) enjoys it. That predilection, along with his quickness and instincts, makes him an ideal middle linebacker. - Atlanta Journal Constitution

  Georgia State added a missing piece to its football team Thursday when FCS All-American kicker Noel Ruiz opted to transfer from North Carolina A&T for his final season.

Ruiz was named to the first unit on the All-MEAC team and was named to the American Football Coaches Association All-America team.

He led all FCS kickers with 1.92 field goals per game and ranked fifth in field-goal percentage and 10th in scoring, with 116 points. - Atlanta Journal Constitution
