As we are in the dog days of the collegiate athletic calendar (especially since baseball is not great this year) what are your favorite memories on the recruiting board?

I have only been on TD a couple years, and the ones that come to mind for me were:

1. Harold Perkins decision day: Was such a huge recruiting battle for BK out the gate. I remember we felt like we had him after his whole family came for the visit but A&M was dropping Saudi type bags. Thank God we got him.

2. Dez Ricks: Don't have much to say but my lord, did this kid get TD popping. Will never forget when he picked Bama and then proceeded to name drop us on accident in the interview. Also, we had predictions from On3 which made the melt worse. Looks like we dodged a bullet in the end.

What are some of the other most memorable moments from this board?

I want to hear from you old baws.

Jordan Burch saga is underrated. Always kept coming out that he hadn’t actually signed with SC yet and kept giving everyone hope

Not necessarily THE best moment but I called the Patrick Surtain not coming to LSU months in advance.

My logic was that if he was SUCH an LSU lock then why wouldn't he commit?

That was the one I got right. Please ignore the million other things that I have been dead wrong about lol.

Overall board fun: Leonard Fournette picking the good guys was a solid day.

The recruitment of Burrow was also fun.

BUT

THE GREATEST SAGA EVER: Quad Brown's recruitment or lack there of. His coach went scorched earth on here when his precious baby boy didn't get an LSU offer.

Hearing Buddy Songy nearly cry on air when Eric Jefferson committed to Illinois.

I think you just outed yourself as an alt.


And Vol had a good run until he had a really bad run.

Interviewed him at the army bowl. That was the only year I went to an all-star game. I'm not one who likes to travel.

Duke Williams was pretty good at Auburn before getting booted, but I really thought he was going to a star

The Joe McKnight meltdown was pretty epic and hilarious in February 2007.

McKnight is a Recruiting Board legend. R.I.P.
