Alabama Crimson Tide

It’s no surprise that the Alabama Crimson Tide topped off the recruiting rankings coming into National Signing Day. At this point, it’s an annual tradition that Nick Saban and his staff are above the rest in terms of the prospect they’re bringing in and this is no different. All they did throughout Wednesday was get stronger with their recruiting class, which is loaded with top-end talent:

If bringing in a single five-star recruit is impressive, what then do you call landing six in the same recruiting class. That’s what the Tide have coming their way with this class, headlined by two of the most recognizable names among recruits: Najee Harris and Dylan Moses. Both the running back and linebacker, respectively, have tremendous hype surrounding them as they make their way to Tuscaloosa. Perhaps even crazier, though, is the fact that that they show the skills and traits on film to live up to that hype.

Joined by massive offensive tackle Alex Leatherwood, a stud wideout in Jerry Jeudy, and then another dominant dual-threat quarterback in Tua Tagovailoa, Bama does as they often do and simply retools for their next set of runs at National Championships. That, of course, is just the five-star recruits as they have a litany of four-stars and three-stars that too could develop into studs throughout their time with the Crimson Tide. The rich get richer and Alabama stays atop recruiting rankings.
