My first Auburn online home was on The Bunker on Rivals.

Hell I think that was 1995 or 96?

Did anyone here ever do Usenet? Specifically rec.sports.football.college (i.e. RSFC)? I was a participant in that group for what seemed like ages… good times man.

Yes. Was active in a lot of groups and ran servers for several companies. the alt. groups were absolutely wild.

(edit) IIRC, The Recruiting Eagle started as an email listserv on one of the IT department servers (duc.auburn.edu?). It got shut down by Tot because he thought it would attract the NCAA Infractions group.

That was a fun night. I remember being up at about 2:30am then realizing that I had a guide trip at 5:30.


He is the one who made my profile pic. If I remember, he made a bunch of them with south park characters .

Just curious how long most of yall have been a member of this board.
Was on Rivals back in '08, then created an account here when I tired of paying money to receive the same news that this place got for free.

I remember being on that too. Pretty sure the admin for that listserv was an Auburn IT guy named David Swanger (who I also knew through rec.sport.football.college on Usenet). If memory serves, Swanger also had a local Auburn band that played small venues and events (Dave and The Swangers?)

Was on here about 15 years ago, but stopped using that account and have no recollection of what my handle was. Came back when ITAT board was shut down.

Well, I wasn't going to say his name but you're right.

I don't know him, but he is still around.

Here since January 2023-

Was on ITAT from 2002 until it went full pay…here since then. Same user name. Posted a lot until about 2005. Lurked mostly after that-

Was on some university site maybe or listserv site from like 1998 to 2002– maybe whatever predated ITAT or evolved into ITAT as a student and graduate prior to 2002…anyone remember what that group was the essentially migrated into ITAT?
