Highly Touted Recruits

[RHBullsFan]

Anyone want to make a stab at listing the top-10 most highly touted recruits to ever join our basketball program....curious to see if any of our recent additions make anyone's list. I'm too young to remember the hype behind anyone prior to the Chucky era. Lets see what you think.

If we're talking highly touted recruits, I'd say Redenko Dobras.  He was recruited at the time by Kansas I believe.  I forget the whole story behind him coming here, but glad he did.

Yusuf Baker was runner up for Florida Mr Basketball behind Amare Stoudamire

[Markeymark]

BB Waldon was a top-30 recruit nationally.

I think Kelvin Brown was a top-50 recuit.

Baker was a top-50.
