The Alabama Crimson Tide had a successful National Signing Day on Wednesday, but Nick Saban wants everyone to know that it’s not the last one.

The Crimson Tide had scarcely finished announcing their signings, highlighted by five-star defensive lineman Antonio Alfano, when Saban warned the media to be careful in their reporting. After all, there’s another signing day in February, and there are plenty of spots available for recruits then, too.

Alabama signed 22 prospects today, but Nick Saban warns reporters, "Don't do your calculations and scare off everyone else we're recruiting in February. We do have spots left." https://t.co/n17wK6rJxW
