Bama saved enough to land Ryan Williams
Ryan Williams was always coming to Alabama, regardless who the coach was. 98% of that class was already signed, and he had done shut down his recruitment. He “re-committed” just after talking to Debose 1 time.
But let’s talk about the class he is actually recruiting right now, that’s currently ranked #26. Actually let’s take a look at prior recruiting classes under DeBoer.
Under DeBoer:
Fresno- 2020- #103
Fresno- 2021- #71
Wash- 2022- #95
Wash- 2023- #26
Wash- 2024- #36
Pre DeBoer as HC:
Fresno:
2015- #72
2016- #85
2017- #84- OC/QB Coach
2018- #91- OC/QB Coach
2019- #85
Washington:
2021- #30
2020- #17
2019- #15
2018- #16
2017- #22
After DeBoer:
Fresno:
2022- #72
2023- #83
2024- #85
Wash:
2025-?
As you see, DeBoer teams have did better before and after him in recruiting than he was at current teams. DeBoer has never been a great recruiter, and he’s not all of sudden gonna change that just because he’s at Alabama. He’s never worked in the South, and all his coaches he brought with him left less than a month later. Then he tried to bring a defensive coach to from Washington who’s been with him last 5 years and he changed his mind and went to Tennessee, instead of Alabama. Bama will have a good year this year, due to the talent level alone. But give it 4-5 years when all of DeBoer recruits are there and then let’s see! DeBoer hasn’t been at an FBS school long enough to build a team, so we don’t know what he will be beyond 2 years.
