I've come to the acceptance that this class is going to be top heavy like 2010. This year will be a lot of depth guys and "5 year" guys with a few studs thrown in. Love Corn, love Hass and our lbs.
I think we come back real strong next year

You do realize this will almost certainly be a top 3 class and perhaps even the top overall class. That's a good thing. Damn we've gotten spoiled. Most of us would have killed a man for a class like this under Shula. I can remember getting crazy hyped over a 4* top 10 player at his position when Shula was HC.

Yes. We hear this spiel every time there is any criticism. But my answer remains the same every time: this is a monster Saban has created. He expects his players to give their all at all times. He expects the fans to sell out every game and be excited about every game, even if they are shite games.
In turn, we expect championships and "best recruiting class ever!" classes every year. I don't expect to be spoiled my whole life. I suffered through goddamned DuBose-Shula. I wanna be spoiled for a little while.
At the end of the year I expect this class to settle in around 5. It reminds me very much of the 2010 class. Some good pieces, an exciting qb prospect and some linebackers. Hell, we might ever get the "long time commit/exciting athlete late flip" a la Keenan Allen if Bo decides to go to Florida like a lot of people think he will.

I'm not so optimistic. Now we can't make a push for Malachi Dupri when even though he is an LSU we could have shaken things up.
Now I doubt even more that Mama-Luatua combo comes as well..
We still getting Cam Rob though.

I Bo would go to UF for a little while...now pretty sure he won't the way staff has underpursued RB's (either that or they know something we all don't about Fournette, which I doubt 
)
& we'll be higher than 5 bro...Bama bump will make sure of that gonna be top 3

Only Cam Rob is assured. You don't know that Mama and Luatua have a spot, it isn't guaranteed; especially considering most think where one goes the other will follow and we probably won't be able to accommodate that.

Based on the predictions it looks like Cameron Sims is trending Bama

We would take both mama and luatua. Mama is the best at his position, and te is a need for us. We will probably lose a commit or 2 along the way, stephen roberts and maybe scarborough

We would need to lose recruits and one of the two I wouldn't be that happy with missing out on unless we get LF (near impossible) in return.
If we got both Mama and Luatua (and most importantly Cam Rob) we'd be left with three spots open (barring we can't count back). That is why I wasn't too hot on Cam Sims. I felt it should have been him or Kief and Kief didn't mess around so he should be left out.

No, have at it.

the biggest problem is this class is almost completely full of guys who 6 months ago if you would have mentioned them we would have went who? I guess cristobal doesn't like the OL guys he inherited but I still don't see the point taking this many OL guys in a class if it cuts guys out like Luatua.
Also from a recruiting standpoint replacing Groh Pruitt and Stoutland with the three guys we did has created weak links in our recruiting staff.
