2020 FCS Jersey Countdown: 20 — The Best Player Who Wears No. 20 Is SDSU’s Pierre Strong Jr.

SDSU Athletics

Welcome to the 2020 FCS Jersey Countdown.

Throughout the May-August months, HERO Sports is going to name the best returning FCS player by jersey number, 99-1. Due to rosters being updated at different times for teams across the country and to keep things consistent, jersey numbers are based on the 2019 season.

The full 99-1 countdown/schedule can be found here.


*Note: Jersey numbers are based on 2019 rosters.

20: Pierre Strong Jr., RB (Jr.) — South Dakota State

Strong is going to be the best running back in the FCS when games are played this academic year. He may have been the top back last season before being sidelined mid-November with an injury.

Strong’s finish to his redshirt freshman season in 2018 was a sign of things to come in 2019. He rushed for 1,116 yards and 11 touchdowns, going over 100 yards in five of the final six games. Strong was named the MVFC Freshman of the Year, earned MVFC All-Newcomer Team honors and was named a HERO Sports Freshman All-American.

Last year, the 5-foot-11 and 210-pounder averaged 7.1 yards per carry, totaling 1,018 yards and scoring eight TDs on the ground. Strong was named on the All-MVFC First Team, a HERO Sports Sophomore All-American and a HERO Sports Second Team All-American.

Strong has all the tools to play at the next level when his career with the Jacks is done. It’s scary to think the 2020 preseason First Team All-American is just a junior.
