A bit early to determine Alabama's depth at running back for next season and even if Wheaton is a freshman he will hardly be a "number" on the Tide roster.Alabama can do no wrong...but before long the hot recruits will grow tired of being a number in the system. Stock piling does no good unless there is the intent to use them. McClellan and Robinson surely stand in front of him...as does Sanders when he gets healthy. So boom he is third or fourth team.
Saban's record at Alabama does reflect "stockpiling" talent....then using it to win championships.
