182. Raheim Sanders: Razorbacks' Rocket

There’s something special about the No. 5 jersey at Arkansas. It takes a special player to live up to the impossible standard set by the GOAT, Darren McFadden. But Rocket Sanders is doing his best—and as it turns out, his best is pretty darn good. The sophomore leads the SEC in rushing and is on pace to have the best season by a Razorback running back since McFadden. And having that No. 5 jersey is a big motivating factor. And as important as living up to the legacy of No. 5 is to Sanders, there’s something even bigger to him: being a dad. Sanders grew up most of his life without a father figure in his life. He’s determined to play a major role in his son’s life. Rocket Sanders has big shoes to fill, but if the early returns are any indication, he’s well on his way to leaving a lasting legacy on—and off—the field.
