The 6-foot-2, 205 pound prospect committed to Texas A&M on June 27. He recently affirmed his commitment to the Aggies.
“A&M has been my dream school since I was a kid, so I’m not going anywhere,” Sanford told On3’s Sam Spiegelman. “I’m done with recruiting.”
Sanford has an On3 NIL Valuation of $37K. The On3 NIL Valuation is an index that looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes. The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.
Daymion Sanford On3 Scouting Summary
The following is the On3 Scouting Summary for Daymion Sanford:
“Daymion Sanford was one of the camp-season standouts after clocking a 4.55-second 40 time in Tuscaloosa and then among the top performers from LSU’s elite camp in June. If not for the presence of a five-star difference-maker like Davud Hicks on the Paetow defense, Sanford could’ve went off in the opener against Conroe. He was in the backfield early and often, opening the game with a sack, finishing unofficially with two, and putting countless pops on the quarterback or defending the line of scrimmage. That sideline-to-sideline speed is wildly evident flying off the edge or countering outside runs.”
