I think you mean Danny Ferry. And yes, they did have scouting reports back in 1989. 
Scouting reports are not a new innovation, though they are more thorough and detailed these days.
I guess he was expected to be a good player, but like Pervis Ellison (who was taken before him as the first overall pick) he never became anything special.

i think a big reason for ferry not meeting a lot people's expectations was due to the major knee injury he suffered after he left duke

Oh yeah, forgot about Pervis Ellison. What a bust. He's gotta be up there with Sam Bowie.
