OL/DL GEORGE BROWN JR. (WINTON WOODS)
George Brown. Jr is a jumbo athlete from Winton Woods HS. He attending Colerain HS, but recently transferred. Kerry Coombs was the former Colerain HC, so I'm curious if these two are familar with each other. Winton Woods' defensive line should be pretty impressive with George Brown joining
Daniel Cage and
Adrian Rankin.
To me, George Brown Jr. looks like he could have a fit at OT. He has the frame to add the weight and save his athleticism. He currently claims to be 6'6 253 pounds. Some schools are recruiting him as a DE and some as a OT. Brown recently said in an interview that he prefers defense.
Like Hilliard, Brown Jr. has a long offer list. He claims offers from LSU, West Virginia, Vanderbilt, Michigan State, Clemson, Baylor, Boston College, Kentucky, North Carolina, Florida, Louisville, and more. He has attended Ohio State's prospect camp in hopes of earning an offer.
In an interview with Miles in December, George described what he is looking for in a school: "I like a good family atmosphere and a winning tradition. Also I would want to play my freshman or sophomore year."
It seems that everywhere Brown has camped, he has received an offer with the exception of Ohio State. This is definitely a name to watch closely as we move forward. Offensive line will always be important for us and Brown has the ideal frame to grow into OT. Early on it appears that he is very interested in the idea of playing down south.
Here is some
good film/video of George Brown Jr going through some drills at Clemson's football camp. With the way he can move, I can see a high-major OT if he is willing to play offense and bulk up.
