Site Director: Brandon Sanders
Brandon Sanders became the Coordinator of Football Alumni and High School Relations in February of 2021 at the University of Arizona. Sanders became the third of four Arizona Football alumnus to join the staff, following Ricky Hunley and Chuck Cecil who were named assistant coaches in December and Tedy Bruschi who was named Senior Advisor to the Head Football Coach.
In his role, Sanders will be a pivotal part of Arizona Football's
outreach, alumni and community relations and operations. He will also
work closely with the athletic department's "A-Club" for Letterwinners
while supporting the program's on-campus recruiting activities and
player development initiatives.
Sanders was a two-time First Team All-Pac-10 selection as a safety for
the Wildcats in 1994 and 1995 as Arizona would go on to finish the 1993
season ranked number one nationally in total defense. By the time his
college career ended, Sanders ranked third in school history in pass
breakups while amassing 199 total tackles, five sacks and nine
interceptions in 46 career starts. He went on to play three seasons with the New York Giants of the NFL before playing in NFL Europe and the
XFL.
The San Diego native has extensive coaching experience as well in both
the Indoor Football League as well as the head coach of Pueblo Magnet
High School in Tucson where he guided the Warriors to a pair of region
titles and three state playoff appearances. Sanders won 70 percent of
his regular season games at Pueblo, won regional coach of the year
awards and was named 2019 Southern Arizona Coach of the Year.
