Alexander is Alabama's career rushing leader with 3,565 yards. Richardson holds the Tide's single-season rushing record with 1,679 yards in 2011.

Alexander said the members of the Alabama running back fraternity keep tabs on each other, making sure the Tide's current ball-carriers know what's expected of them. Alexander said he remembered getting a call from Johnny Musso, Alabama's first 1,000-yard rusher, just as he's been in contact with current Tide running back Derrick Henry.

"You can't just come to Bama and be good," Alexander told Edholm. "You have to be special, and you have to pass it on."

Good stuff.

Nice story.  Glad to hear Shaun is still working with the team.

TR apparently needs to eliminate the off field distractions, as well. I'm pulling for him to turn it around next year.
