Alabama Football: Loaded in-state ’23 recruiting class a great opportunity

Douglas DeFelice-USA TODAY Sports

With five verbal commits for Alabama football from the ’22 recruiting class, the Tide trails other schools. Nick Saban is always patient and Crimson Tide fans have no reason to be concerned about the 2022 class.

It is expected the NCAA will remove most of its COVID-driven recruiting restrictions by June. When that happens, all schools, not just Alabama will be playing catch-up. Some coaches will take a verbal from a highly rated recruit with little reservation. Saban is more selective and with no school camps allowed last summer, this June and July will see an influx of players to Tuscaloosa.
