If so who gets the #1 class? LSU? Ohio St? UGA?
I think UGA is gonna make a strong run at it.

Bama still has Davis, Wilson and Hardman out there. Those 3 will make them have a HUGE jump up to 285.26 points...and those wouldn't be the last 3 in their class.
LSU currently at #1 is expected to see Willie Allen commit next, that would jump LSU from 281.01 to 285.98. So basically right in line with Bama. At that point LSU would have 21 commits to Bama's 20 commits, so it's going to be REALLY close. What can seal it for LSU is if they flip a top QB like Haskins. If they dont then it's going to be a super close race.

UGA is way up there for having so many spots still to fill. Could go either way really.
In play (not going to get all or even most, but in the hunt):
Mecole Hardman
Derrick Brown
Demetris Robertson
Lyndell Wilson
Michail Carter
Marquez Callaway
Brian Burns
EJ Price
Nigel Warrior
etc.

I seriously doubt this happens but it is not outside the realm of possibility because we are in the final 2 or 3 and lead for a lot of these names that OM could finish with:
Gary
Juarez
Simmons
D. Anderson
S. Carter
If we finish with those we will be up there and probably #1. Is this going to happen? Most likely not.

What a weird recruiting year for Bama. Only 15 commits going into the home stretch, rampant decommits, and long time "locks" (Wilson/Davis) declaring favorites elsewhere.
Saban hasn't had disorder rule his recruiting classes so perhaps there is a grand plan in place for a Bobby Bowden type finish. That has not been the norm for Bama for quite so'e time though. In the Fran/Shula years this is where we went heavy on late offers to uncommitted 3 star players who became hot commodities as teams filled out their classes to 25-30 players. Recruiting services just called them "blue chip" players in headlines - lol.
You'd think NFL defections and graduations this year would have some players at key positions (LB, safety, DE, OL) drooling to come in and contribute as true freshman, so it isn't like Bama can't offer playing time.
We shall see

Alabama will probably have a 2010 type recruiting class. It seems that our focus is on winning the title this year, and that is fine by me. Besides, the 2017 class looks to be legit, and I could see us getting back to #1 next year.

We're able to take 28-30 recruits this year. I see us finishing with
QB:Dwayne Haskins
OL:Willie Allen
DE:Sci Martin
DT:Rashard Lawrence
DT:De'Andre Christmas Giles
DB:Trayvon Mullen
DB:Kristian Fulton
DB:Jamel Cook
That would put us at 311.44. A couple of our current commits are likely to get large bumps as well so it should be higher. I could see us possibly oversigning by one as well if a big name wants to jump on board.

LSU easily, we have to more 5 stars according to ESPN left to commit. Lawrence and Allen, plus about 4 more 4 stars. LSU will run away with the recruiting title this year.

We won't finish #1. Too many guys that our staff are SUPER high on that aren't 5* guys like Nick Coe, Vosean Joseph, and Pennamon. Our staff considers Coe and Pennamon elite 5* types, but both are rated 3* to 4*. Our staff's evals just differ more than usual with the recruiting gurus.

Finishing #1 every year was getting boring. Most of our classes were already wrapped up before NSD. This year is going to be much more exciting imho.

When Bama is finally dethroned, it will start with the recruiting classes, but it will take more than one good year for other teams to catch up with them.
