In 2018, Alabama finished fifth in the 247sports composite team rankings for recruiting. That ended a seven-year run in which the Crimson Tide ranked No. 1 in all of those recruiting seasons.
However, the Tide are back on top in 2019.
Heading into national signing day on Wednesday, Alabama is in good position to secure the top class in 2019. The Crimson Tide entered the day with 28 commits, which included 15 already enrolled at the school and nine others who signed their letters of intent during the early signing period in December.
That leaves only four commits, all of whom are 4-star recruits, to sign on national signing day—defensive end Khris Bogle, defensive tackle Byron Young, running back Keilan Robinson and cornerback Christian Williams.
