Title: ESPN:Tide's Richardson Takes Center Stage
Post by: pmull on March 25, 2011, 10:50:47 AM
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- Alabama senior center William Vlachos isn’t sure the Crimson Tide ever figured out what they wanted to be offensively last season.

“I think last year we didn’t quite form an identity at all or the way we wanted to form it as a power-running team,” Vlachos said. “That’s what we are and what we will be. It’s on our shoulders in the offensive line to take the reins and establish that identity.”

And along those same lines, Vlachos said there won’t be a lot of guesswork on whom the Crimson Tide’s go-to guy will be next season.

It’s Trent Richardson's show now.

“He needs to take the bull by the horns,” Alabama coach Nick Saban said. “He was in a tough situation, playing behind Mark [Ingram]. The first year, he probably didn’t realize it. Last year, maybe he didn’t handle it as well, but he doesn’t have that circumstance anymore.

“He’s the man.”
