What is going on with Alabama recruiting?

Alabama is now #5 in 247 composite rankings with the recent commitment of DT Bobby Brown from Texas last night for the 2018 class. The 4 teams lurking above Bama have more commitments. With the class size being down this year, a top 3 signing class looks like a real possibility. Not bad for a dynasty program on the way out.

1. Georgia 24
2. Ohio St. 21
3. Texas 20
4. Penn St. 22
5. Alabama 18
6. Miami 20
7. Notre Dame 21
8. Clemson 15
9. OU 20
10. Auburn 20

To people used to Butch Jones’ coaching, a top 5 class ends up performing like a 75th ranked class. You can see where the confusion comes in.

It's over for Alabama.

The future of the SEC is Georgia and Tennessee.

You can go ahead and take JJ Peterson off your list.😀
