The compilation of the All-America roster was supervised by a panel of analysts working in large part with the historical records contained in the files of the Dr. Baker Football Information Service. The roster consists of only those players who were first-team selections on one or more of the All-America teams that were selected for the national audience and received nationwide circulation. Not included are the thousands of players who received mention on All-America second or third teams, nor the numerous others who were selected by newspapers or agencies with circulations that were not primarily national and with viewpoints, therefore, that were not normally nationwide in scope. The following chart indicates, by year (in left column), which national media and organizations selected All-America teams.

  • 2018 LION FOOTBALL Media Guide the TRANSITION NORTH ALABAMA TRANSITIONS to FCS
    2018 LION FOOTBALL Media Guide THE TRANSITION NORTH ALABAMA TRANSITIONS TO FCS VOTE TO MOVE TO DIVISION I (FCS) CAME IN 2016 • The University of North Alabama Board of Trustees voted on December 6, 2016, to accept an invitation from the ASUN Conference and begin the transition of UNA to an NCAA Division I institution in the Fall of 2018. Thirteen of North Alabama's athletic teams will compete in the ASUN. The UNA football program will compete in the Big South Conference, which formed a football alliance with the ASUN. THE TRANSITION BEGINS AS AN FCS INDEPENDENT • Beginning with the 2018 season, the Lions will be competing as a member of the Division I Football Champi- onship Subdivision (FCS) as an independent. LIONS JOIN THE BIG SOUTH CONFERENCE IN 2019 • North Alabama will be an FCS independent in 2018 before joining the Big South Conference as a member in 2019. The Lions will not be eligible to compete for the Big South football title until the 2022 season. LION FOOTBALL DATES BACK TO 1912 • The University of North Alabama fielded football teams from 1912 to 1928 but the sport was dropped follow- ing the 1928 season. FOOTBALL RETURNED TO FLORENCE IN 1949 For the next 21 years there were several efforts made to return football to the Florence campus by writing let- ters to the administration and gathering names on petitions. Those efforts finally proved successful on March 30, 1949, when President Dr. E.B. Norton held a student assembly to announce that football would return to campus that September.
