Roll Tide: Alabama Climbs The 2020 Recruiting Lists

The University of Alabama football team is usually loaded from top to bottom. They’ve put out more 1st round picks than any other school since 2010. 83 overall draft picks in that span, 28 of those being first round draft picks. The next highest would be Ohio State with 62 picks including 15 first round picks.

I think we can sum that up to Nick Saban just being a hell of a recruiter.

UA started July having the #13 recruiting class of 2020. Commits over the last 3 weeks have gotten them up to #2 only behind Ohio State.

Just this month The Crimson Tide received commitments from 8 recruits bringing their total number to 16 commits so far. The gem of this haul being 5 star offensive tackle, Tommy Brockermeyer. He and his twin brother, 4 star center James Brockermeyer committed last week which seemed just continue the trend of the month.

Other Recruits to Commit This Month

  • 5 Star DT Damon Payne
  • 4 Star Terrence Ferguson
  • 4 Star JUCO CB Khyree Jackson
  • 4 Star DE Dallas Turner
  • 4 Star ILB Kendrick Blackshire
  • 3 Star ATH Kadarius Calloway

With the actual 2020 season still somewhat up in the air and the world being in the middle of a pandemic, recruiting has been a new world for most schools. We will have to see if Nick Saban can still pull off another #1 recruiting class by signing day.
