STILLWATER — Former Oklahoma State running back Barry Sanders is adding yet another honor to his already lengthy football resume.
Sanders, the 1988 Heisman Trophy winner, has been selected as the recipient of the 2015 PwC Doak Walker Legends Award, the PwC SMU Athletic Forum announced Thursday.
The award is given annually to a former running back that is now a respected figure where their college careers began. Former winners include Bo Jackson (2014), Walter Payton (2006) and Earl Campbell (2002), according to a news release.
Sanders' 1988 season is considered among the greatest of any player in the history of college football.
