Eno Benjamin was a four-star recruit who ranked as the sixth-best running back in the impressive 2017 recruiting class, just behind Cam Akers and De’Andre Swift, and ahead of the like of Travis Etienne, Chuba Hubbard. Clearly, the recruiting pedigree suggests that Benjamin has been a top prospect from the day he stepped foot in Tempe. Benjamin saw work as a true freshman and had a productive college career earning third-team Associated Press All-American in his sophomore year, and a two-time first-team All-Pac-12 selection. While his rushing production did drop off in 2019, his production remains impressive.
