Though he's not Heard County RB Carlos Brown's favorite actor, he loved Brad Pitt's performance in "Troy." Pitt's character Achilles "was rebellious, led his own people and he refused to die.

As a Tech grad and a OSU fan, I don't want him to go to either FSU or Michigan, but I think he ends up at FSU and I'm shaking my head why, because of the need for TB's at the other schools on his list. But I guess we will see.
