Was reading some of the old stuff from the Alabama Rich Rod ordeal in light of Tennessee Schiano and stumbled upon this
"I just want you to know you've hired a horseshite football coach," Saban told Moore. "But nobody will out-recruit me."
Thought that would amuse some of you guys crying after the iron bowl about how Saban is a recruiter and not a coach

What does it say about the future of Bama's program that Saban is being out-recruited this year? Is the decline imminent?

He had just coached in the NFL for 2 seasons. Probably humbled him a bit. He's definitely not a bad coach by any means though.

We are only signing about 22 guys this year. If we end with a Top 5 class, it will be among his best recruiting efforts.

He isn't a coach in the sense that he is a great football mind IMO. He was never a high profile coordinator or anything.
He is a manager and a stickler for details. He surrounds himself with good people. He is a great recruiter. But he is more of a CEO type of coach which is way different than say guys like Mike Leach who are football geniuses.

Don't they only have 9-12 players committed?
Wouldn't it be safe to say the other 10-14 will be highly ranked and push Bama into top 5 or better?

^This. Saban is a brilliant CEO. He's also shown that there's more than one path to greatness.

So 9 wins with a 10th possible is a decline for LSU.
What is a decline for State?

He, along with Belichick, built and crafted a defensive system that he used and taught to this day.
He was a defensive mastermind. He has handed the reigns off more in the past few years to Kirby and now Pruitt, but the scheme they implement was created by him and BB.
