And for a time in the earlier part of this decade, the biggest thing on the Tulare Union Redskins was a tiny running back named Dominique Dorsey who broke area records for rushing yards and touchdowns.

For a time, the school's logo looked almost like that of the Washington Redskins. And when Dorsey bought a letterman's jacket, it was black with leather sleeves in a striking shade of burgundy. All of this he remembered when the NFL team who shared those colors and insignia was suddenly the one to show the most interest in his potential this past February.

Safety LaRon Landry is now the only Redskin who is unaccounted for during this round of offseason workouts.
