Derrick Henry's high school stats are hard to believe
Alabama running back Derrick Henry is considered by many to be the favorite for the Heisman Trophy after breaking Herschel Walker's SEC rushing record with 1,986 yards, but those stats are dwarfed by the Florida native's insane high school numbers.
Henry's senior season at Yulee High School saw the Crimson Tide standout put up an astounding 4,261 yards and 55 touchdowns on 462 carries.

Four games with six touchdowns? Check.
Four games with over 400 yards rushing? Check.
Two games averaging over 15 yards per carry? Check that one, too.
Henry's lowest game total for the season was a "paltry" 189 yards against East Gadsden.
With stats like those, it's no wonder he's the favorite to be hoisting the Heisman on Saturday in New York.
