Usually the best player on your high school football team is either the quarterback or the running back. On most amateur/minor teams, you take your best athlete, put him in the backfield, let him touch the ball on almost every play, and if he is an elite level prospect, you will usually have a really good team and call yourself a really good coach.
Most of the young men who play running back at the varsity high school level are probably the best athletes on their team. The class of 2020 running backs are no exception.
Advocating for football prospects one story at a time.
