“AG2G after talk with my mom I’ve decided it’s time to commit! I’d like to thank all coaches that have recruited me. Thank you to my mom for supporting me throughout the recruiting process. Thank you to Coach Burke for pushing me everyday to be the best I could be and all my James Clemens Jets family! Thank you to Coach Peoples, and Coach Drinkwitz for believing in me. That being said I’m committing to Mizzou Football! #MIZ #SEC #GoJets|”
Out of James Clemens High School, Brown is listed as measuring 6-6, 235 pounds. He is rated 3-stars, the No. 44 recruit in the state of Alabama and No. 120 defensive lineman in the Class of 2024 by 247Sports.
