Five-star DT scoffs at report of his final three choices that excluded Georgia

A five-star defensive tackle is denying a report that allegedly revealed his final three schools.

Derrick Brown out of Buford, Ga., who’s rated as the No. 4 defensive tackle and the No. 9 overall prospect in the Class of 2016, according to 247Sports’ composite rankings, was said to be down to three SEC schools.

According to 247Sports’ Keith Niebuhr, Alabama, Auburn and Tennessee are Brown’s final three choices with Georgia now out of the mix as of Thursday morning.
