The Fourth of July has been a popular day for elite 2021 recruits to either commit or narrow down their list of top schools.

On Saturday afternoon, 4-star 2021 CB Markevious Brown became the latest to whittle his list down to 5 programs.

As you can see below, the Florida native took to Twitter to announce that 3 SEC schools — Arkansas, Auburn and Ole Miss — were still in the running:

Those 3 SEC programs will compete with a pair of ACC squads — Miami and Virginia Tech — for Brown’s services in 2021 and beyond.

Per the 247Sports composite rankings, Brown is the No. 20 cornerback in the class of 2021 and the No. 42 overall recruit from the state of Florida.
