I was part of a group that eventually became the Rivals Recruiting Network along with Jim Heckman, Tom Lemming, Shannon Terry, Greg Gough, JC Shurbutt and many others. Later became Insiders then Scout. We started the football camp and mini combine circuit for college recruiters, established the star system and the first to provide public highlight films of high school prospects. We also provided footage of the NFL combine to media outlets before it was televised.  My crew actually covered Lebron James playing football in high school. 

I knew Todd McShay when he is was still in college.  Guys like Kretz, Horton, Moll were instrumental in the early days of ranking high school recruits for college and college recruits for the NFL.  Kiper would use (steal) much of our material for his Scouting Preview/Reports that he sold to NFL teams... as did Max Emfinger and others.

So yeah, I know a couple things about scouting and experienced it long before Google was the primary search engine.
