Which Recruiting Class was the First that Hooked you on LSU Recruiting?

I followed the 2003 class lightly, but really 2004 is when I became completely glued.
I was way too much of a novice at the time, but all I knew is that Herman Johnson was going to be the greatest OL in the history of the world.
Of course Dorsey and Doucet were the superstars of the class, with Claude Wroten and Xavier Carter also being 5 stars. I thought Carter would be unstoppable at 6'3 with world class sprinter's speed.
Turns out he was very stoppable on the football field. But then Jesse Owens like on the track at LSU, so not a total loss.
Was also a big fan of Marlon Favorite.
And E.J. Kuale was the meanest looking mother fricker you or I have ever seen.

1977- my senior year of high school. I've probably been following high school recruiting before most of you were born.

Kevin Faulk. The turning point for LSU

09 kind of piqued my interest with all the big names. 10 was the first one I really followed.

I think it was 1996 or 1997, the year we signed Kendrick Allen out of bogalusa. I was hooked ever since.

Clayton, Spears, Hill, Wilkerson.
The class that really turned us around.
