Alabama Linebacker Factory

It shouldn’t come as a shock that Alabama runs away from the rest of the SEC. Since Nick Saban came to town, the Crimson Tide have recruited an astounding number of elite high school linebacker prospects, and Saban, Kirby Smart and the rest of the Alabama staff have coached many of them to college stardom and onto NFL careers.

With names like C.J. Mosley, Courtney Upshaw, Rolando McClain and more dotting their ranks, Alabama has had more All-American linebackers over the last decade than any two SEC schools put together, while tying for the most players picked in the NFL draft.
