TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — It was business as usual at the University of Alabama football complex during Wednesday’s national signing day, which was just the way the Crimson Tide wanted it.
That meant that Nick Saban won another recruiting title, his sixth straight according to the 247Sports composite rankings, which average out the ratings on a number of top recruiting sites.
By sundown the Crimson Tide’s recruiting class was ranked No. 1 nationally by 247Sports, Rivals and Scout and second by ESPN, which named Florida State its champion.
