Link? I know it is a lot but that seems a little high. I'd guess more like 75 out 85 tops.
247 composite 3 stars signed each of the last 5 years:
2016 - 7
2015 - 4
2014 - 5
2013 - 8
2012 - 8
I know a lot of those guys are gone but I'd bet at least 10 (probably more) are still on the team.

Nick Saban is an above average coach, at best
So if he was a really good coach, how bad would the 59-0 game have been?

I agree. Sumlin would have won just as many championships during that time frame if he were at Bama.

Les Miles proved this isn't true. He had an entire state of recruits all to himself and sent countless of them to the NFL, yet only managed to squeeze out 1 little turd of a championship on backs of Nick Saban's players no less.

With this ungodly amount of talent, he should never lose a game.
He is not Sir Alex Ferguson who can take above average talent and win the league 15 times. He is not John Wooden, who could take the best talent and win 10 national championships.
Nick Saban is an above average coach, at best, who has learned how to surround himself with the best recruiters money can buy. Trade any coach in the SEC for the past 10 years at Bama and they would have a similar record.

Not reading all the replies. Just wanted to say you're fricking stupid.

Masterful Troll OP. I give you one internets.

The fricking reason the talent is there in the first place is Nick. As a Bama-born boy, I'd like to think all that talent was because of the supreme pride in ALABAMA, but it's 20% heritage and 80% Saban.
The man is the best coach in NCAA history. Hands down......and that includes Bear.

Well, he is special if you count Little People as special. He makes Napoleon look tall. Tom Cruise looks down on him. Stallone uses his head as a table to hold his beer.

I agree that he may not be the best game planner but he is the best recruiter. The only coach in the SEC in his time that could even come close to his results is Urban Meyer and maybe Spurrier if he still had the fire. Some of the newer head coaches could be good but we don't know yet.

Not special just very smart enough to put himself in a key position in one of the most profitable forms of entertainment to date. He is just an actor on this stage. There are producers and directors who are much smarter than he.

If what he does is so easy, why haven't other schools emulated him? It's not like Bama has more money then everybody else and pretty much everybody in the conference is willing to throw whatever they have at the program to make it successful.

If he was taller he'd win 'em all.

I tell you what, I wish LSU still had the little short SOB.
