Saeed Blacknall decommitted from Rutgers and flipped to Penn State.

That put the capstone on the most dramatic recruiting class disintegration that I have ever seen, with 5 four star recruits jumping ship and turning one of the best classes in RU history into one of the worst in recent memory. It pretty much doomed the Flood era.

Interestingly, most of those guys didn't really pan out. Some ended up back at Rutgers years later (Kiy Hester, Jonathan Hilliman). One, Adonis Jennings, I believe tried to get back to Rutgers but couldn't get a waiver.
