It has to be more than 5 5*. Where did you get the number?
All 3 Alabama players, who were selected, were 5* recruits.
I know Bo Nix was also.It has to be more than 5 5*. Where did you get the number?
All 3 Alabama players, who were selected, were 5* recruits.
247 definitely shows more than 5 5*. In addition to Alabama players, I can see Williams, Maye, Mims, in addition to 3 Alabama players. So, at least 6, but I’ve only briefly looked at the names, so could be more.
In-state IOL Mal Waldrep has us in his top 4. He is rated a 3* now but his offer list says otherwise. He is a legacy but don't remember a Waldrep at Bama.

IOL Mal Waldrep narrows list to four schools and locks in official visits
Mal Waldrep has narrowed his list to a handful of schools, locked in official visits and set his commitment date.
Misunderstood the legacy part. His grandfather played for Clemson in the 60's and he seems to be pushing him to Clemson. We will see what happens.In-state IOL Mal Waldrep has us in his top 4.

Like our chances here and I think he will be a center candidate for us.
Well I just read he is a legacy at Alabama and I read a Clemson article that said his grandfather was a Clemson player. I guess he could be both.
247 article about recruits & 1st round:

7 5*. All juniors
15 4*. Some juniors, some seniors
3* are either seniors or senior citizens, like Penix, who has started his college career in 2018 (COVID effect)
Not a single 3* junior was drafted in the 1st round.
Bottom line: ratings matter. Of course, there were some 5* busts (e.g. Brockermeyer), but not a single 3* junior was drafted, meaning that rating agencies were correct, when marked them as “projects” and some of them were late bloomers and developed into good players.

One is 247Sports and one is Rivals and they are going to differ but 247Sports is better at what they do than Rivals IMO. I would have expected the results to be more in line with what 247 reported.I got it from here. I didn't make it up.

Don`t know if already posted. Missed on Ed Woods. Picked the Spartans.
Debose would be a nice start to the '25 OL class.
We are in the top 3 for 4* RB and top 100 player Bo Jackson out of OH. His comments about Bama and Gillespie are very positive. Wouldn't it be nice to get this one to stick it in the face of the Barners.
Wow, that would be fun to have a Bo Jackson at Bama!We are in the top 3 for 4* RB and top 100 player Bo Jackson out of OH. His comments about Bama and Gillespie are very positive. Wouldn't it be nice to get this one to stick it in the face of the Barners.
The fact that Rivals had more of the guys in the first round rated as 5 star, would seem to indicate they are indeed better at rating than Rivals.
It was the other way around. Rivals had less 5* in the first round than 247; thus, confirming that 247 has better ratings
