Trey Sanders is headed for greatness on and off the field.
If one wrote a book on how a five-star athlete should handle adversity, Sanders would be the author.
Three years ago, he stood as the most sought-after running back prospect on the recruiting circuit. As a native Floridian, every major program wanted Sanders’ services. He chose the University of Alabama in 2019 after a dominant high school career at IMG Academy. Sanders’ confidence grabbed attention quickly as he boldly declared his mission to win the Heisman Memorial Trophy as a freshman. A foot injury in preseason camp prevented him from taking carries from Najee Harris and Brian Robinson.
