If he ran a true single wing he was a tailback with loads of ball carrying duties. The QB position was a blocking back lining up just behind a guard with a wingback alongside. The fullback was slightly ahead of the tailback and often took the snap. My favorite call in Stanford Stadium in 1956 was "Beamer on a spinner." Meaning that Oregon State COLLEGE FB Nub Beamer took the snap, executed a half or full spin and plunged into the line or handed off to Joe Francis at TB or on a reverse to Ernal Durden the wingback. OSC won the conference and got thrashed in the Rose.
