I don’t think they had the rating services back then or if they did they were not widely known . Pre internet , even pre PC and Cable was tiny.
Donnell was our first top National recruit . He was either 1or 2 in the entire state of Pennsylvania, national rankings in the early 1990’s were sketchy.
Rip was high but not quite as high as his PA predecessor. 
Khalid three time POY  was also pretty high I don’ remember him being top 10 coming out of Minnesota.
I doubt Caron was that highly regarded  his bio doesn’t mention much about his HS rating. I recall he came with more baggage than the HMS Queen Mary.
Calhoun was one of the only name coaches willing to give him a shot .
He is one of the great examples of a life saved by sport.
Rudy was the top player in the DC area top 5 in the country as was Charlie V in NYC . Kemba Walker was 14 , 5th PG .
Andre was a Connecticut kid who was a walk on not a recruit . ( that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
