With this class, Alabama has set a new rivals record for most four and five-star players in one class. The Tide has pulled in 22 guys of a four star or higher rating.
Nick Saban has also made great strides in recruiting that was missing under Mike Shula by pulling in all those recruits. Saban has 19 four-star recruits in this class. Shula had a total of 20 four-star recruits in his three recruiting classes.
By the time this article was written, Alabama had received letters of intent from all of its commitments.
Alabama is rated as having the best class according to both rivals.com and scout.com.
Now that signing day has come and gone and the speculation over whether these players will sign, the Tide now looks to 2008 and beyond.
The immediate impact of this class will no doubt be felt on August 30 when the Tide face off against the Clemson Tigers in the Georgia Dome. However, Tide fans and the new recruits are looking not only to the start of the season, but at a national championship in the next few years.
“This class will win a national championship before I get out of school,” Star Jackson said. “And you can quote me on that.”
