Wow. A 13 man class.

While quality is nice, a bit of quantity does not hurt either.

We always think that then by Feb it balloons up to around 20.

If you look at our roster, 67 scholarship players are

Redshirt sophomores or younger. So, from true juniors to redshirt seniors we only have 18 scholarship players. So, assuming the redshirt sophomores or younger players stay two more years, we would only have 18 scholarships to give in 2017 and 2018 combined. Obviously, there will be some attrition between now and next fall, and that will determine the size of the 2018 class, which will likely be similar in size ( with some additional attrition) to the 2017 class, around 15-17 players. The 2019 class should be our next big signing class.

Re: Wow. You realize we can only have 85 on scholly

at any given time....correct? Next year will be a small class as well unless there is a lot of attrition. If you want to feel better take a look at the talent on our roster and note the fact we are in the Championship game for the second year. And, take a look at the 13 we do have committed. Quite impressive.

signing a 13 man class means you have a lot coming back. You can't just sign 30 kids every single year. That means they are a young team with a lot of talent waiting in the wings.. chill out.. please

It has to be down to 85 before the first game. It goes over that in the spring and summer until players graduate.

> you realize you can only have 85 on your roster i hope

Bama has taken 101 recruits in last 4 classes, we've taken 83. Doesn't make sense

'14 Bama took 25 we took 22
'15 Bama took 24 we took 26
'16 Bama took 25 we took 22
'17 Bama has 25 (so far) we've got 13 (so far).


How do they stay under 85.

Do they shoot 4 stars to make room for new 5 stars?

It's called "stock pilling" it happens at a lot of programs and not just for football. It's really getting bad in baseball.
