Most memorable VN recruiting thread

[boomvol]

Since it’s been a whole 2 days almost since our last commit, I thought it’d be fun to reminisce a little bit about the hours spent on the recruiting forum. What is the most memorable player thread/recruitment (regardless of if they became a Vol) that you can remember in your time on Volnation?

I don’t post much on here but I’m a pretty constant observer; the ones that came to mind that sparked this idea were:

Torrence Gibson
Adoree Jackson
Jalen Hurd
Cordarrelle Patterson
Henry T (unfortunately)

Curious to see which threads stand out to everyone over their time here

some say if you go down to the strip, you can still hear Gibson on his official visit

Definitely a silent commit still. He’s just been VERY silent about it.

Any Gruden thread as well….

Gruden

And it’s not even close

Jesse Scroggins III

I believe Sab sent him the open letter about how big a star he would be at Tennessee. Scroggins signed with USC and was there at the same time as Kiffin. Scroggins then went to JUCO and ended up at Arizona. I don’t think he played much at all anywhere.

Scroggins - the love letter
Gibson - the 6 day visit
Darnell Washington - got AV ran off
Chris Russell - just because that one guy lol
Vonn Bell - was a meltdown
Terrence Lewis - decommitted at least 6 times

I always wondered what happened to AV. Wanna give me the skinny on what went down?

The best ever was when we were recruiting Gruden. Some of the best evenings I ever spent on volnation

Eddrick Lofton

Dude is like 40 and now ready to qualify.

Scroggins thread has to be the one imo. I don’t think we’ve seen a poster come as close to a restraining order from a player as that one. The Sab love letter is part of recruiting forum lore now.

Who was the dude that Coach O farted in front of his grandma?

The memphis trio was classic

Gruden threads were the best threads.

 

[RockyTop140]

Darnell Washington for sure

Which recruit had one of our coaches call his mom a b****. . . which coach?

Edit: was it Thigpen and Van Jefferson?

Darnell Washington and Orange shoe string tips. He was ours!

Another fun one I had forgotten was Drew Richmond

Nico.

The rumor was that Thigpen slept with a recruits mom.

Funny part is most of the names being brought up did little to nothing in college lol, remember that next time we freak out about not getting a player.

Gerald Williams. The thread that went on for years!

He was starting to get gray hair by the time he played his first game at UT.
