MIAMI, Fla. — Five-star running back Trey Sanders is one of the hottest commodities in the 2019 recruiting cycle. The 5-foot-11, 216-pound back recently decommitted from Alabama. With his recruitment back open, Sanders is waiting to make a decision.

“I don’t plan on committing anytime soon,” Sanders said. “It’s been pretty much every school has been pressing me a lot.”

Florida is one of the schools trying to get Sanders in the fold.

“It’s close to home,” Sanders said of the Gators. “They recruit my brother [Umstead Sanders] out of [junior college], and that’s a big thing for me. I’d like to play with my brother in college.”

The Gators also have another connection to Sanders.

“My mom is actually a fan of Florida, a big fan of Florida. She hasn’t been there before, so I want to take her up there and let her see everything. Florida is definitely going to be like one of those schools that’s up there because it’s close to home.”

The Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy star is currently ranked No. 6 in the nation according to the industry-generated 247Sports Composite.
