Kingsbury Was Football Pioneer Long Before Hall Of Fame Induction

Kliff Kingsbury is known around the college football world as a trendsetter. His stylish custom suits and designer sunglasses have made him the closest thing the game has to a fashion icon. However, long before he was a sex-symbol with a play sheet, he was setting a different type of trend, running the spread offense to perfection.

Saturday, Kliff Kingsbury was honored for his remarkable high school football career by being inducted into the Texas High School Football Hall of Fame in Waco. Before Kingsbury was setting records in Lubbock, he was the most prominent of the early wave of high school quarterbacks that helped revolutionize the game of football at all levels making him a no-brainer addition to the Hall of Fame.
