Movin' On Up

Auburn running back Tre Mason has been placed in the NFL draft this coming May. "It's been my dream since I was young, and I'm a dream chaser," Mason said. "I'm just trying to make a dream into a reality." In his college career Mason led the SEC and was fifth nationally with 1,816 yards rushing.  He was nominated the Heisman Trophy winner, in the ceremony there were NFL scouts in which they got eye of Mason. In important games such as Alabama he rushed 64 yards and a touchdown, along with the 
Missouri game where he rushed 304 yards and four touchdowns.

All these games were another reason as to why the scouts want Mason in the pros. "The [NFL] is getting one of the tougher individuals in all of college football," Auburn coach Gus Malzahn said. "He can run between the tackles. He has great courage. He played his best games in the biggest games, and he's a good receiver out of the backfield, also." 

Mason broke Bo Jackson's school record of 1,786 yards set during Jackson's 1985 Heisman season. Being the second Auburn player to declare early, Mason has broken records and is an outstanding player with dedication to his team and the heart to play the game. Tre Mason will be entering the NFL draft this May and hopes to accomplish many things and personal goals for himself and his team.
