FCS COMBINE: Running Backs Top Performances

The FCS doesn't have its own Combine, but what it does have is a list of dozens of on-campus Pro Days — and of course some FCS prospects are invited to the big NFL Combine in Indianapolis every year. So we decided to create a "Mythical" FCS Combine, taking all of the above results, throwing them into one database and breaking down a leaderboard by position — and we were able to add in more than 320 FCS players' results.

Below is the final version.
