Really, you might have to go back to 99..

To find a OL class that generated a lot of excitement. That 2006 class might qualify, but I remember thinking at the time that the 99 class was remarkable. They'd later prove that they were too hyped but the excitement was palpable.

Ambron, Neal OL 6-7 275 Littleton, CO (Littleton)
Curtin, Brennan OL 6-8 295 Palm Beach, FL (Benjamin)
Faine, Jeff OL 6-3 310 Saint Mary, FL (Seminole)
Gillis, Ryan OL 6-3 315 Bowie, MD (DeMatha)
Milligan, Sean OL 6-4 285 Norcross, GA (Norcross)
