Is there really that much of a logjam at running back?
Our top four running backs right now look to be: Taylor, Gaffney, Stewart, Wilkerson.
Stewart's definitely gone this year. A lot of speculation that Gaffney will get drafted by the MLB and go that route. Taylor will be a senior next year. While a lot of people have praised Wilkerson's potential, he hasn't exactly put it all together (and is, at any rate, a junior next year). Seale is unproven. It seems to me there's plenty of opportunity for a surge as the change-of-pace back next year and the heir apparent spot for 2012. Why would you, a redshirt freshman, transfer? Doesn't make much sense to me.
