only 33 are from the state of Alabama.


that's crazy low. I know alabama isn't a great state for HS recruiting (at least compared to others in the SEC) and bama can recruit nationally due to their success, but that's still an insanely low number. You'd assume all the walkons and scout teamers would be from in state.

Alabama is America's team, bro.


J/k - I was really surprised by that low of a number too.

33 out of 120 on our current roster are from Arkansas.

23 of those are on scholarship.

So 27.5% of our total roster is from Arkansas and 27.1% of our scholarship players are from Arkansas.

Saban loves to recruit 4 and 5 stars, and Alabama does not have as many as say Georgia, Florida, Texas etc has....is why the disparity..
