Nick Saban has signed top recruiting class after top recruiting class since he accepted the Alabama job in 2007. Some members of the 2008 and 2009 classes can even boast playing on three BCS Championship teams (2009, 2011 and 2012).

Five-star OL Alex Leatherwood says the 2017 class will go down as the best class in recruiting history.

It’s a long ways to National Signing Day in February, but right now 247Sports Composite says that Alabama’s 2017 class is not the best that will sign next year. While the Crimson Tide is ranked No. 1 in the SEC, it is No. 2 nationally to Ohio State.
