Name the football recruits who brought the most attention to this board/TD in its existence. Whether LSU signed and we had nana overload or we missed and melted to the ground.

I'll start

Ryan Perrilloux.
5* QB East St. John
Verbally committed to Texas
Signed with LSU on signing day.
This board was full of threads constantly forever it seemed like and the excitement when he signed was epic.

not a single recruit but "5 for 5"

McKnight stung hard and I know I personally melted. I was still on a paid site at the time so not sure how bad the melt was here.

Can't say for this board, but was at the recruiting bash when McKnight spurned LSU. It was a meltdown at the recruiting bash. Grown men crying in the corner in a fetal position. It sucked the air out of the entire bash.

the simple fact that this board was created when Russell Shepard committed due to the amount of threads on tRant means that he qualifies for this thread

Not all but these stick out in my head...

The entire morning of signing day in 2007 with McKnight choosing USC in the afternoon.

Zach Lee signing 52 minutes before the MLB deadline in 2010.

Landon Collins picking Bama during the 2012 Under Armour All-American game.

The 48 hours leading up to the #5for5. Many many many people cancelled their football recruiting subscriptions that day and rightfully so.

Janzen Jackson
5* DB Barbe/Carencro
Committed to LSU, waiting until after signing day (for his mom to come in town) and signed with Tennessee instead.
The board melted to the ground.

Me too!

But I only insulted other posters, not the player.

#5for5 truly was the greatest melt

That class was supposed to be our recruiting opus

so many top players in LA that year. It was supposed to be the greatest class of all time

it started to unravel with CRob

and on the day of #5for5 sitting in my office thinking "what the frick is happening" as I watched it fall apart

I don't know if this board would have survived if LF hadn't committed to LSU
