This isn't a decision, it's a calling. And Volunteers answer the call!

2023: 5* QB
2024: 4* QB
2025: 5* QB

I?m assuming we?ve never signed such highly rated QBs in 3 straight classes before.

I'd say the best run since we signed no.1 AND no. 2, in, what?  1994?   :naughty: :powert:

Believe it or not, Peyton was #2 that year, behind the legendary Josh Booty. Stewart was down the list a ways, something like the #8-10 QB. Still ended up having a nice run at A&M, though.

Yeah, in fairness that was a long time ago though.  :biggrin:

IIRC, Peyton was no.1 in one service and no. 2 in another, but this is the only one I could find:

I think maybe Marcus Nash was the no. 1 WR and Dion Grant was the no. 1 DB as well.  Those also are not in there, but maybe they  were class of 95? 

Anyway, it was a great run at recruiting in the mid 90s....maybe those years are coming back

Grant came a little later (97?). That was the year that Rodney Garner snagged three 5*s out of GA- Grant, Jamal Lewis, and Cosey Coleman. I?d say those guys worked out.  :naughty:

Oh yeah.  Dwayne Goodrich was 1994, not Dion. 

What talent we had back then.

I think the 1998 defense may actually have had more talent than any Saban team, or at the very least was on par with them.  :powert:

And yeah, that haul out of Georgia was the top three players in the state actually, and led to Georgia hiring Garner away from us.
