Marlon Brown

[Hotrodpinto]

Don't know if this has been talked about anywhere on the nation but I saw on Rivals that he was headlining thir camp as the top prospect to attend. Has he attended one of our camps or are we still a favorite? I don't like the sound of this and think that we have to land this guy. I know he is probably going to see several schools but I honestly think that we have to get the best players out of our own state. With Saban doing enough damage already, we don't need Carroll getting our best players. Does anyone have any comments concerning this guy and his interest to us?

no comment.....

That might be an old article because I think he is there as we speak.

 

[Ohiovol09]

Hmm, new info to me, but worries me...

 

[govols182]

I really don't think w land him and I don't think it's a big deal. We are pretty loaded at WR for the next few years. We already have taller WR's coming in from last years class(Abrams-Ward and Fowlkes if he doesn't move). His position isn't much of a need but if he signed I wouldn't be disappointed.

 

[Ohiovol09]

I just don't see things pointing in the right direction for us getting Marlon.

 

[govols182]

We already have Stokes in this class and next. Both will end up WR's.

USC will be our main competition. Not sure why I have a thumbs down above my post.

 

[chavisut]

I'm optimistic. He's this years Julio Jones :crossfingers:

Ummm...he's not even on his level. Unless of course you mean because he's instate and won't commit until signing day.

Exactly what I mean.

I would like to get him. He is talented. Brown isnt a priority but would be a great land.

 

[Grateful Vol]

i think michigan is all over him too. usc stole patrick turner from us a couple years back so i am sure they got him all over brown. i think landing nunes and giles increased our chances but i still would take the merrell twins (one of which is a hella wr) in a two for one and wouldn't lose any sleep. at least now we can be selective and start laying it on thick to these 5* and land a brown, oku, and a couple dt's. all i know is, i like this clawson fella.

Brown struggled today at the camp. Was actually clocked running a 4.7 40 and struggled in 1-on-1's.

 

[volsack7]

I think he's going to end up at either Georgia or USC. My gut says GA...

 

[Volbuddy22]

Lets send Mr. Brown to Stanford's camp, and maybe he'll just say like Nunes..."I want to be a Vol" He he!

 

[VictoryVille101]

Florida is in the mix as well, he is visiting unofficially within the next month. Surprisingly, he is actually entertaining schools other than UT.

and why would it be surprising that a top-rated recruit is visiting other schools? Every one of them does it

He was always going to USC's camp...this is nothing new. According to his last interview, he seemed to be most interested in us and Georgia. He mentioned he wanted to go somewhere with a good young quarterback, which is why he likes Georgia with Stafford and their new recruit Aaron Murray. Hopefully with Nunes, that will help our chances. I think it's between us and GA and USC with a decent shot.

By the time he gets to UT or UGA, both QBs will be seniors.

This is exactly why he will drop down to a 4*. He hasn't played the type of competition that other guys at that camp have.

 

[head1]

Or he could have had a bad day....

The fastest player at the camp ran a 4.57. No one ran below a 4.5.

Yeah, but 4.7 isn't good for a WR. Also, he doesn't play good competition in his division. I'm just saying, he's probably gonna drop, but I still wouldn't mind getting him.

 

[Jewbaccah]

I am not sold on this guy, I like the other guy Reuben(Spelling?) and Ray Ray but guess we are not as likely to land those guys.But, I would be excited if we got him anyway. Beggers cannot be choosers or something like that.
