Did I hear that quote correctly on ESPN, every single 5 star who's played for Saban at Alabama has been drafted in the first round?

Without looking it up weren't Tyler Love and Burt Scott both 5 stars? If not that's an insane stat.

I doubt that Landon Collins isn't a first-round pick.

The original figure was that every player in the top 15 that Saban has signed has been a 1st round pick. This was going around on signing day and somehow it got changed around to every 5 star he's signed.

Well, we all know that defensive back recruits get a bump scouting websites when they sign with BAMA.

Complete bullshite, Eddie Williams- kicked off campus for robbing other students.

And who was that running back who isn't returning this year? Dee Hart? He was a Rivals 5 star..didn't exactly pan out.

To be fair to him, he tore his ACL twice. Showed good promise when he actually got to see the field.

Probably because Alabama recruits are LSU recruits.

There have been five stars signed by Saban at Alabama that haven't been drafted in the first round and there will be more to come. Alabama signs too many 5 stars for them all to pan out in college much less get drafted that high.

The ratio is pretty good compared to the ratio of 5 star success in general so far though.
