Meh, we filled some needs and brought in some guys to build depth down the road. Look, Bama is pretty fricking loaded right now and really just needs to stockpile in a few spots. As long as we bring in some interior lineman on defense for depth, DEs for depth, fast lbs for depth and a few versatile dbs i'm happy. It was to be imagined that this class wasn't going to be so stout being that we lost only 2 juniors from a title team. Our secondary will start all 5*s except for EJ. Our offense will start all 5*s at skill positions except for Stewart. We are fricking loaded.

Nothing is "going on again"...I love Bama football. Saban is my favorite coach of all time. me and my friends text back and forth about bama football all the time. My home is covered in Bama decorations. But, we laid an egg with this recruiting class. You can still be a fan and say that. The class is absolute garbage right now, and we don't have enough on the board still to make it as good as years before. Move on 2017 and dominate like the other years, but don't sugar coat this class. even the name of the thread is making a joke about how many 3's we have

Thank you for having the guts to say that my friend. yes, our team is stacked. And I can't wait for next season to see what we do. I just merely said "the class is WAY less powerful than years before." I have no idea why this makes everyone so mad. yes, our current depth has something to do with it, but, what I said is true regardless of the situation. It's just not a good class. 2017 should be monumental. my 3 favorites have been 2008, 2014, and 2009, and 2017 will be close to those 3 I truly believe.

With 12 days left...our 2016 class has seven 4stars and two 5stars.

With 1 year and 12 days left...our 2017 class has seven 4stars and one 5star.

that's a little disturbing

It is a good class filling our needs. At Bama right now there is essentially a 2 year wait minimum start at any position. If you are truly elite you will likely see the field only at DL and RB and maybe in the secondary. That is how loaded we are. Think about that. I will be disappointed if we don't land another DT and DE though.

This class isn't as highly rated as others, but damn. Referring to this class as garbage, which is basically calling the kids garbage should get your arse kicked out of here. These kids bust their asses and do the best they can and then have peckerheads that don't know shite, put a star rating on them. Then to have a "fan", hide behind his keyboard and call them garbage, is ironic.

There were some serious health issues in his life or with loved ones. Nobody knows what is going on, but I'm afraid it was for the worst.


Hulk... bashing recruiting is not discussing recruiting. Stop. No more warnings will be given.

Insider on Bol posted that Gary's mom called the coaches after the Cotton Bowl and said her son needs to be at Bama. She likes the structure of the program. Fwiw

Wow that's a complete 180 from her previous comments about Bama being all work and no play. Hopefully he makes it down for an OV next weekend.

Seven 4-stars & Two 5-stars in Late January with only 5-8 more players coming? That's a damn Oklahoma State recruiting class. This class is pure trash, I hope 2017 redeems this year of 3-Star hell.
we have about as many 3 stars committed this year as we normally have, we typically have between 6-10, we have 7 so far. last year was an anomaly with only 4, and perhaps our most significant class for the return to greatness, 2008, had only 3 5 stars and 11 3 stars. We have a shite ton of talent that we are in good position to land on signing day this year, upwards of 4 5-star guys and a bunch of top 4 stars. taking a few open spots into 2017 is not a bad thing.
