We never had a 5* recruit actually commit and then sign with us. Calvin was a 4* recruit by both of the major (at that time) recruiting services when he committed. He was re-rated as a 5* later. Tuitt was the only 5* I know that ever committed to GT. We all know how that turned out.
Correct about Calvin. He was actually a "low" 4 star at the time he committed.
Charles Dudish would have been the only one I can remember but I am not sure they even used stars back then. All I know is he had over 200 scholarship offers, was the number rated high school recruit and was supposed to be the best quarterback coming out of high school in a generation. Some major network did a show (was it 60 Minutes, I do not remember)a prime time special just on senior year and the recruiting battle because it was unprecedented at the time.
