Most kids being recruited either think or are being sold that they will be the team that gets college team X to the championship. Early playing time and NFL placement from a contender is much stronger than playing for the team that won it all last year for most elite recruits...


There are obviously many varying factors that go into a recruits decision making process but clearly a team like Alabama who has won multiple national championships can point to their championships as a major draw. There's a reason why Bama has been the top team in recruiting since Saban has been there and there's little doubt that their championships are a huge factor.
