Spring football: Top returning running backs

OCVARSITY.COM

The county isn't exactly known for producing running backs. Moreover, the game of football is evolving more and more into a passing league. Yet here we are with a very deep class of backs in 2012.

How deep? Well, the returning back with the most yards last season isn't ranked in our top five. Neither is the player with the most notable scholarship offer. As always, the rankings are sure to drum up more arguments than they settle.

Click through the photos for a countdown of the county's top 15 returning running backs.
