This board is so predictable I find it fascinating

- Hopes get built up for elite recruits to choose Rutgers

- Recruit says "I'm wide open, but Rutgers is a school I'm strongly considering"

- expectations get built up for months and months and recruits get overhyped

- Recruit says "Rutgers is one of 15 schools I'm considering, but I love the family atmosphere"

- posters parse every single word that elite recruits utter, devour articles, and religiously read the FatCat, hoping to find some hope that that they might choose Rutgers

- Recruits mother wants recruit to goto Rutgers so she can see him play and Rutgers is closest to home; unconfirmed rumors that recruit wants to get away

- fans wonder why recruit won't be a "leader" and choose Rutgers

- posters feel angst over recruits decisions but feel happy that at least the mother is in our corner

- "Big Boyz" come in and make their strong pitch

- Elite recruit goes elsewhere (most of the time)

- Board melts down and some posters go into an extended funk

- "Fire Flood, Fire Julie, Fire Barchi" threads ensue

- Rutgers lands two or three star replacement. Coaches are excited.

- Rivals reports 2017 five star recruit has Rutgers #1 on his list
