I hate to admit it but tomorrow won't have much juice. I'm probably looking forward to this one even less that the buzz killing 2014 LOI day. Which day was the most interesting/intriguing?

To me 2011 was the apex with the Huggins commit and the other dramatic Pitt-flipping signings. Discuss....
 
I'm actually very intrigued about it.

Would love to see if Ash can pull a surprise. Interested to hear his take on the kids too.
 
2012 ! New ha Flood ! That was definitely the most memorable . Still can't forget it .
 
I'm still perplexed in hindsight that the 11-2 season in 2006 was followed with a class that was ranked apparently No. 38.......Anthony Davis was in that class too.

I would assume that it had something to do the state of the Big East at the time.
 
Savon Huggins picking the RU hat over UNC at last moment some broadcast on some internet stream.

Darius Hamilton announcing on MSG Varsity, and Steve Longa calling in to the show to say he too was coming.
 
Kaleb Johnson announcing at his school, with his coach believing he was going to announce to Louisville. But when it came time for him to take the microphone, he reportedly was silent for a full 20 seconds, clearly agonizing over the decision until literally the last second. Finally he said one word - Rutgers.

And who could forget the Khalil Glaud coin flip.

Not surprising to me. Back in 2006, by the time anyone realized we were so good, most of the big names were already committed, AD being an exception. There is generally a time lag between success on the field and recruiting success. The sad thing was that we couldn't follow up 2006 with another big year in 2007. Then we would have had something.
