We recruit based on need.


Yep. This is what poorly run recruiting teams do. Saban recruits on needs, also, but his needs are exactly the same every friggin year. Each year you should recruit:

1 QB
2 RB
4 OL
3 WR
1 TE
3 DL
4 LB
5 DB
2 Best players left and kickers

It's not that simple because of early departures to the NFL and transfers. No numbers can be set in stone like that. The numbers variably change each year.

Things change, you have transfers in and out, NFL departures and injuries. You cant just recruit exactly the same every season. We had 4 WRs transfer out since last season. We lost like 6-8 guys early to the NFL a few years vs. 1-2 other years. We've gotten hit hard at LB this year with injuries, and the NCAA clearinghouse with Anthony. Things are ALWAYS fluid in recruiting.

And no, Saban doesnt recruit exactly the same like that every single year. He fills needs. Just like we try and fill needs.
