CINCINNATI — UC defensive tackle Dontay Corleone is in a class all his own on the AP Preseason All-American watchlist. Corleone was the only Big 12 defensive tackle named to the first team.

Corleone was a third-team All-American this past season.

He has now been named to the Walter Camp, Outland, Bednarik and Nagurski 2023 preseason watchlists.

Corleone is coming off a fantastic season on UC's interior defensive line, finishing the 2022 campaign with 44 tackles, three sacks, and two forced fumbles as PFF's highest-graded defensive player in the country.
