Clemson (Watson and defensive end Shaq Lawson), Stanford (McCaffrey and guard Joshua Garnett) and Ohio State (safety Vonn Bell and tackle Taylor Decker) each had two players on the first team.
After thanking his mother and father, Henry then thanked his grandmother, who he says helped to make him into a man and taught him the importance of keeping God at the center of his life.
Fast forward to Monday, and he’s in his second day of being “Derrick Henry, Heisman Trophy recipient”.
McCaffrey took down Barry Sanders’ record for all-purpose yards in a single season, while Henry broke Herschel Walker’s SEC rushing record. I’ve just got that 2009 feeling y’all. All I wanted to do was affect them by the way I practice and the way I work hard.
“God is everything. Always keep God first”.

The Alabama running back won college football’s highest individual honor after posting one of the most productive seasons in college football history, rushing for 1,986 yards and 23 touchdowns in leading the Crimson Tide back to the College Football Playoff. Always pray. Don’t be afraid to pray, he’ll always hear your cry. He always hears you cry. “I am a living testament, man”. I get on my hands and knees every night and pray.
