Phillip Lindsay - Denver South Running Back

Phillip Lindsay came from a football family. His father, uncle, and cousins all played. By the time he reached Denver South High School, the game was in his blood, and so was the aggression that defined his running style.

Coaches described Lindsay as a wild animal on the field, someone who played with a mean streak essential for the next level. Colorado offered a Division I scholarship, and Lindsay accepted. The in-state program got a back who made tacklers pay for every hit.
