Nick Giaquinto

Do you remember Nick Giaquinto?

He was according to Wikipedia the first H-Back. While at UConn, Nick once ran for 277 yards. I can't ride a bike 277 yards. For the Burgundy and Gold, he also did some halfback, special teams. And garbage detail apparently. Joe Gibbs nicknamed him the Trashman

Nick coached Sacred Heart University Baseball for 29 years. 

Nick's best year was 1983. He caught a couple passes in that legendary 1983 Green Bay Game. Later on, in the second St. Louis Cardinals game, Nick did a Riggo drill carrying 10 times for 44 yards. He concluded his march with a bulge for a TD.

Here's Nick Giaquinto on the 1982 Skins:
