Nerdpod: Running Backs v2.0

By Paul Honda on October 6, 2016

NERDPOD: Running backs v2.0 The Star-Advertiser and Hawaii Prep World’s Paul Honda breaks down some of the best running backs in the state. Why do I start again with running backs instead of receivers or quarterbacks? I suppose, well, it’s not that RB is my favorite position, or that they’re better as a group.

It was a throwback, something many teams over the years had used, most notably Roosevelt.

One was Flamingo. What Waipahu used […]
