Can someone name me one recruitment(yes, other than my moms)that has had more twist, turns, speculations, public apologies,story lines and been a bigger shite show than Zach Evans recruitment. This is fast becoming movie script material.

I can't remember his name, but there was a RB several years ago who had a very similar recruitment. I think he ended up at Oregon originally, but was a huge flop.

What about the guy that went to Oklahoma and ended up in jail? Is it always running backs?

Dylan Moses was kind of a shite show to me. I remember him basically saying that if Les was fired he wasn’t coming here and some of our fan base got cold feet. I got banned from the recruiting board for a year because I said you never make a coaching decision based on one recruit or class. Then the little bitch started flirting with us right before signing day and deleted all his Bama stuff to make it look like he was gonna flip. Thank god he signed early or we would have likely never landed Jacob Phillips. Maybe not Patrick Queen either. Also he helped Bama recruit Chris Allen out of BR.

The whole university bent over backwards for “his majesty” for 6 years and he spurned us because he’s a groupie.

Bryce Brown was probably the biggest shite show I ever remember though.

This entire Rakim Jarrett one has really got on my nerves. He legit fricked with us for over a year. I have no problem with him choosing to stay home but the way he has acted since he signed with Maryland has really rubbed me the wrong way. We did nothing but support him and show appreciation for having him aboard.

I'm going to my all time GEAUX 2 guy, Rodney Sospher. I always get a kick out of his re or nonrecruitment.

Bru Mccoy was a weird one. Signed with USC initially then entered the transfer portal not long after signing day and went to UT. He then changed his mind again and transferred back to USC

Seriously, this kid should sit out of college football for a year to get the rest of his life in order. That is the best chance he has of straightening his life out.

This kids recruitment goes way beyond a drama fest now. The kid's word is totally worthless as will his contributions on the football field will be, because he will never see the field. Nothing this kid says can be taken seriously on any level.

You are just as likely to see this kid working at a Popeyes Chicken than on any football field.

Player Personnel guy Austin Thomas was ironically similar to these shite show recruitments.

I honestly can't remember one like Evans.

Yall have named some good ones. Roquan smith was kind of low-key weird.

He committed to UCLA on NSD, didn't send in papers. Ends up sending in his papers to UGA I think a few weeks later and the rest is history.

Was Joe McKnight’s recruitment a shitshow? Or did the fans reaction make it seem worse when he went to SC?

Marvin Wilson basically going to FSU because of some chicken wasn't really a shite show but was really fricking frustrating at the time
