Of course the Alabama recruiting machine is well documented and clearly we could use a recreation in Austin. (One can only pray). There are #1 classes, and there are #1 classes. Depends on the year and whether the busts are there. A quick look back at the Bama class of 2017 is mind bottling for sure...
Quick hitters. Again, single class.....
Devonta Smith - 4* - Heisman Winner – Round 1 (surely)
Tua Tagovailoa – 4*- #5 overall pick, #2 in Heisman
Mac Jones – 4* - #3 in Heisman, Round 1 Pick Projected
Najee Harris – 5* #5 in Heisman, Likely a first round pick
Jedrick Willis – 4* - #10 Pick in the draft
Henry Ruggs - 4* - #12 pick in the draft
Jerry Jeudy – 5* - #15 pick in the draft
Alex Leatherwood – 5* - Projected Late First Round Pick
Xavier McKinney – 4* 30th pick in the draft
Dylan Moses – 5*, First Day pick
Isaiah Buggs – 4* - Late Round Pick
Brian Robinson – 4* - Next great back? (Too lazy to see if back next year)
There will be more draft picks from that class in the lower half of this draft and next as well....
Just nuts for a single class. This WR class above has to be one of the be one of the best ever....2 first round QBs and Heisman finalists....
I was just looking back on how this monster was constructed, this jumped out. That is all.
