Deletion of Amir Pinnix

Comment: I agree with most of Eagles247's recent AfDs, but have to dissent on this one.  Pinnix was the starting running back for a Power Five conferences|Power Five team and tallied 1,410 yards from scrimmage in 2006.  See https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/amir-pinnix-1.html here.  Running backs at this level of competition and accomplishment will almost always pass , and Pinnix is no exception.
