The news keeps getting better for Alabama on Tuesday, as Crimson Tide saw two of its 2020 signees make sizable leaps in the 247Sports recruiting rankings.
First, it was Tim Smith, who jumped from No. 82 overa#Alabamall all the way to No. 28. As if that wasn’t enough, Will Anderson went from being rated as the No. 62 overall player to No. 5.
The news also meant that both players had earned a fifth star.
When looking at the 2020 signing class, the first thing that stands out is the amount of talent included in the defensive front seven.
With the news of Anderson and Smith, Alabama now has five different players in the front seven that are rated as a five-star prospect according to at least one major recruiting service.
- WDE Chris Braswell (247Sports, Rivals)
- WDE Will Anderson (247Sports, Rivals)
- ATH Drew Sanders (247Sports)
- DT Tim Smith (247Sports)
- ILB Demouy Kennedy (Rivals)
Considering Alabama’s struggles on that side of the football in 2019, the addition of that caliber of talent is a welcomed sight for Tide fans.
