Buford is a Hotbed for Georgia recruiting. Got to get in that Pipeline!!! Bruce can do it!! Having Willie Martinez certainly helps.

Gwinnett County in General is loaded with great talent every year. Some very good programs in this county.

"I want to see Tennessee in action since I can't really drive up to Tennessee right now," the No. 44 overall player in the 2016 class said. "But I'm liking Georgia now, too, so it's a win-win situation."

When it comes to the Vols, Brown said he will be paying special attention to how the defense holds up against Georgia.

"I want to watch the defense and how they perform," he said. "I've been talking to Coach Gillespie and he has been telling me good things."

"Getting to meet all the coaches and see what they are all about," Brown told VolQuest.com. "That's been the best part because I like coaches that are very straightforward. I also like coaches that show they care about you, but I like one that is down to business."

"Coach G (recruiting coordinator and running backs coach Robert Gillespie) and Coach Strip (defensive line coach Steve Stripling) talk to me on twitter every day," Brown said. "Coach G is chill and they are both down to earth. They talk to me about what is going on in my life and then on the football side they tell me I would have the opportunity to come in and play early and contribute."

"Place that fits me well," Brown said. "A place that gives me an opportunity to go in and play early through hard work because when you get to college that's when the coaches are going to decide who plays and that's why my work ethic is so important."

The five-star junior defensive tackle from Lanier High School in Sugar Hill, Ga., ranked the Vols fourth among his early favorites, and he said he “hopefully” will be able to visit Tennessee at some point to take a closer look at the program.

Georgia, Auburn and Alabama, in order, are currently his top three choices, and he already has visited all three schools. But he said the Vols also have caught his attention.

“Watching them play, they’re on the come-up,” said Brown, who’s ranked the nation’s No. 18 overall prospect and No. 4 defensive tackle in the 247Sports Composite for the 2016 class. “They just got a new recruiting class — 2015 — and that class is really good, so I see Tennessee being a place that can possibly be a powerhouse the next few years.”

Fortenberry interviewed him at the Rivals Camp in Atlanta. Brown talks to Strip and Coach G on a weekly basis. Has plans to be at UT in early April and is looking forward to what UT has to offer.

Nice. Adding him to the three amigos in Picou, McKenzie and Tuttle would be awesome. Talk about a solid DT rotation in 2016
