Joseph Yearby and Dalvin Cook are arguably the two best running backs in the ACC and they’ve been compared to one another all their lives.
The duo were best friends and teammates at Miami Central High School. In fact, they were recruited in the 2014 class as two of the best running backs in the nation – Cook was the #3 ranked running back overall and Yearby was the #4 ranked running back overall (just behind Leonard Fournette and Sony Michel). The duo flip-flopped their commitments between Florida, Miami and Florida State over some years.
