With the College Football Playoff National Championship less than one week away, TCU remained busy in the transfer portal, securing a commitment from Alabama running back Trey Sanders, who announced his pledge to the Horned Frogs on social media Thursday. A former big-time five-star recruit in the Class of 2019, Sanders becomes the third Crimson Tide transfer to choose TCU, following offensive lineman Tommy Brockermeyer and wide receiver JoJo Earle. Sanders is the fifth player added from the portal for the 2023 class.
The 6-foot, 215-pounder from Port Saint Joe, Florida spent four years with the Alabama football program, redshirting his first season before recording 528 rushing yards and three touchdowns over the next three seasons.
