Crossword Genius

Lent made one lad go mad (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

loaned

'lent' is the definition.
('loan' can be a synonym of 'lend')

'one lad go mad' is the wordplay.
'go mad' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'goes mad' mean this).
'one'+'lad'='onelad'
'onelad' anagrammed gives 'LOANED'.

'made' is the link.

(Another definition for loaned that I've seen is " Gave temporarily - want it back".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
