The list is made up of 42 of the nation’s top defensive players who
have had the biggest IMPACT on their teams on and off the field. IMPACT
stands for Integrity, Maturity, Performance, Academic, Community and
Tenacity.
Stuckey (6-1, 205) is from Kansas City, KS, and will be a senior next
season. He was an all-Big 12 first-teamer in 20, making 98
tackles (second on the team) while leading the team with five
interceptions and ranking second with seven passes broken up.
Stuckey started all 13 games for the Jayhawks, including a monster game
versus The Slavers in which he recorded six tackles, two interceptions,
one pass break- up, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery. He was named
Big 12 co-defensive player of the week for his trouble.
After the 2008 season, Stuckey earned the team’s co-Leadership Award
for his high level of community involvement, along with the Iron Hawk
award for his dedication in the weight room. He also was tabbed the
team’s special teams player of the year.
The Lott Trophy is named after NFL Hall of Famer Ronnie Lott. It’s
awarded to college football’s defensive IMPACT Player of the Year. The
Lott Trophy is the only college football award to equally recognize
athletic performance and the personal character attributes of the
player. The award is sponsored by the Pacific Club IMPACT Foundation.
The winner will be announced at the Pacific Club, Newport Beach, CA, on
December 13.
Last year, former Jayhawks Russell Brorsen and John Larson were Lott
Watch List selections.
