Alabama continues recruiting at a level that should strengthen the reigning national champion’s status as college football’s premier program.
If anything, coach Nick Saban's ability to land the nation’s top prospects grows stronger with each passing year.
The recruiting class that Alabama finalized Wednesday has the highest rating in the history of the 247Sports Composite team rankings, which go back to 2010. The previous top-ranked class was Florida’s 2010 group.
“This is a national championship-winning class,” said Mike Farrell, the national recruiting director for Rivals. “They will win one with this class. It just maybe depends on whether it's one or two.”
