With Ty Simpson & Dylan Lonergan being named QB1 in the past 24 hours, got to thinking about Alabama's QB recruiting...
From 2010-15, Tide inked 6 HS QBs. They started a total of 2 games for Bama.
From 2016-23, Tide inked 11 HS QBs. They have 217 combined FBS starts already w/3 starters this year.
That list includes 3 1st round NFL draft picks (+a 2nd and 3rd rounder); 9 P5 starters & a combined record of 160-57.
Hurts
Tua & Taulia
Mac
Bryce
Milroe
Simpson
Lonergan, Eli Holstein
Layne Hatcher was a solid G5 player & Paul Tyson was lone bust.
Just an incredible run. That it coincides with
@lanekiffin17's arrival is an interesting twist, too.
BTW, the QBs Bama signed before that run:
2015 - Blake Barnett
2014 - David Cornwell
2013 - Cooper Bateman & Parker McLeod
2012 - Alec Morris
2011 - Phillip Ely
Yuck.
