TAMPA-Linebacker Kion Wilson, safety Nate Allen and defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul picked up more postseason billings after being named to the 2009 Rivals.com All-BIG EAST defensive team.
Rivals.com's David Fox sang high praise for the three Bulls honored stating that Pierre-Paul was "perhaps the breakout defensive star in the Big East," Allen " has had a knack for coming up with the big play" throughout his career and that Wilson "may have been the team's most important defender this season."
