SEC team-by-team recruiting update: Alabama's huge haul, Florida struggling

With National Signing Day just three months away, here’s how the SEC stacks up against each other on the recruiting circuit.

Top-ranked Mississippi State leads with an impressive 31 commits — more than three times Florida’s current number of verbal commitments under Will Muschamp’s failing regime.

Alabama’s projected to sign the top class in the country, headlined by a couple of five-star talents including California quarterback Blake Barnett who won MVP of Trent Dilfer’s Elite 11 passing camp this summer.
