2022 Recruiting Board/Thread

Doesn't bama usually start slow then blow everyone's doors off the last few months before NSD?

Not really. Bama starts off on top and just holds that position or juggles between 1 and 3.

In 2018 though, Bama started slow. At one point, they had the #46th class in the land. Saban tried closing hard and almost made up for the slow start, finishing 5th, which isn't bad. But if you look, they normally have the top class. Not that year.

I still think this is a longshot, but if Sark can pull in Tmac, CJ Williams and Coleman to go along with Stewart and Winfield, that might be the greatest class of WRs Texas has ever pulled.  I know you can go back to the big 3, but this 5 would be epic.

I didn't see any DTs in the top 100 that we were in on. He's close at 116.

I'm assuming 2000 would be the “big 3” year? BJ Johnson #2, Roy Williams #3 and Sloan Thomas #6 WR’s in the nation. 
We landed the top 6 players in Texas and four 5 ️ recruits. 

If we could land the 5 WR’s mentioned it would possibly be the best haul ever in the nation not just at UT. #2, #3, #5, #6, and #12.
Add the #1 RB and I think the #1 QB (when all is said and done) and it would be the greatest collection of offensive skill position players imaginable. That would definitely expedite our rise to National prominence aka “Dominance”

Exciting post!  OL take note - we need you!
 

Would you count Jefferies (sp) in that 2000 group?  I believe he was an athlete who played QB in high school.... ended up playing WR.

I was looking at it strictly from a rating standpoint. Production wise we definitely did a better job of developing players. 
Tony Jeffery was the same year and not ranked by 247. Nathan Vasher was in the class unranked also. 
The class itself was only #6 overall. 23 signed only 8 ranked by 247 all but one was top 50 nationally and he was 57.

The early Top 10 in the 2022 recruiting rankings



4. TEXAS LONGHORNS

The theme of quarterbacks leading classes atop the rankings continues with Texas, which has the No. 4 class as coach Steve Sarkisian tries to restore the Longhorns to national prominence. The early jewel of the class is five-star quarterback Maalik Murphy of Gardena (Calif.) Junipero Serra. He committed a few weeks ago. Getting the top talent in Texas if vital, and the Longhorns are off to a good start in the class. Of the seven commitments, six are from the Lone State State, and five of those are rated with four stars. The latest player to jump on board was Alredo (Texas) High safety Bryan Allen Jr., who committed Sunday. Texas has five commitments ranked in the Top 100.

The longer I see someone like Banks or any Tackle wait to commit, the more worried I get. I don’t see a player in our previous 2 classes that I would take over Banks right now. The depth chart is so thin at that position that any Tackle’s eyes should light up. Add in a great coach like Flood on a high flying offense. Should be an easy position to recruit.
