Is anybody really using a true fullback in high school any more? Seems that we are always having to convert or project a recruit to fullback.

Back in the day wasn't a fullback just a slow RB?

I'm sure plenty of schools are using a FB but the issue is that they aren't going to put their D1 caliber athlete there. That guy is going to play a position of more impact and they will put a lesser athlete there.

Pollard was bumped to a 4 star on Rivals.

as he should be. 6A offensive player of the year in Georgia is a 4-5 star regardless.

Hey you can't say that in my safe space. I can still go pro. I almost tackled Andre Debose on a kickoff once. :(

I say that as a fellow FB myself.

I played in the wishbone though for those of you who know me and just did one of these.

I didn't do th research, but someone on here not too long ago did some digging and found that nearly all of Bert's Wisconsin fullbacks were converted tailbacks.

What does it look like the possibilities of this happening are? I read he was "looking around" a while back.

Too good to be comfortable. They'll probably get Cater too.

LaFrance and Harris are apparently close friends.
