    Why are there no white runningbacks in the NFL..?

    Sitting here talking to a buddy and it dawns on me that there are no white running backs in the nfl... I know that there has to be a white guy out there that could play the running back in the nfl, hell my highschool had the top running back in the state four years in a row and he didn't get picked up by a div1 school. Does race come into account when scouting and drafting a player to play this position? I know this may come off as racist and I apologize if it does but it just seems a lil perplexing to me that no caucasian running backs play at the professional level...


    Edit: After further investigation it seems there maybe some physiological reasons why it is a predominantly black postion. Tendon and muscle structure being one of the main reasons I am coming across. Sounds like proof of evolution to me but what do I know....

                                  How is Fargas considered white when his father looks like this?

                                  Wiki says his father is of Puerto Rican and Trinidadian descent.

                                                      Mike Alstott played RB for a year on the Buccaneers if I remember correctly.
