Alabama’s strong finish led to the top recruiting class in 2016, and one of its key recruiters is being recognized.
On Thursday, Scout.com named its 2016 conference recruiters of the year, and Alabama defensive line coach Bo Davis earned the honor from the SEC.
According to 247Sports, Davis was the primary recruiter for two key defensive tackles, five-star prospect Kendell Jones from Texas and four-star prospect Raekwon Davis, while being the secondary recruiter for four-star DT Quinnen Williams.
Davis was also listed as the main recruiter for five-star inside linebacker Ben Davis, the top player at his position. He was also the leader for a few more four-star prospects: CB Nigel Knott, OT Scott Lashley and QB Jalen Hurts.
LSU’s Bradley Dale-Peveto and Auburn’s Rodney Garner were honorable mentions.
