The Alabama Crimson Tide got off to a slow start in the 2021 recruiting cycle (based on their lofty standards during the Nick Saban era).

However, in recent weeks, that class has skyrocketed to No. 2 in the 247Sports composite rankings, trailing only Ohio State.

The SEC is still planning to play football this fall, but on Sunday, Saban’s daughter, Kristen Saban Setas, took to Twitter to say if there isn’t football this year, the Alabama 2021 class should give fans hope:

Indeed, with 4 5-star commits and 10 4-star commits, the class is quickly becoming just as loaded as we’re used to seeing from Alabama.

However, fans will also want to get a last look at this year’s stars like Jaylen Waddle, Najee Harris, DeVonta Smith, Alex Leatherwood, Patrick Surtain II, Dylan Moses and others who will likely enter the 2021 NFL Draft.
