Five 4* lb's, a huge pull out of LA, and still in the lead or very much in the hunt for Jordan Jenkins. Yeah that's pretty ridiculous.

LSU has I believe 4-5 LBs committed this class so not surprised one would leave LA.

Speaking of LB, really excited to see Deion Jones who switched his committment from Nebraska to LSU a few days ago. Dude makes plays on his highlights and runs a 4.4 according to scouts.

I honestly believe that Saban tells these kids they'll play in a 1-9-1 defense. Only explanation for the 3596 Linebackers they've signed in the last 5 years.

Saban's really lucky his recruits aren't very good with numbers.

Considering Alabama led the SEC with 12 freshmen on Academic All-SEC last year..

Texas is just cleaning up. Loving the new staff's work on the recruiting trail. Bringing in JUCO talent? This is fun to watch.

Because having less than half of your players pulling a 3.0 in Public Relations at a state school while only taking a 12 credit hours and receiving the best tutoring proves a lot about the intelligence of your recruits as whole.
