Baffles me too. Maybe his grades may be worse than what we know. Still, I'd think some MAC teams at least would have tried to get their foot in the door.

I just don't get it...

It has to be academics. Brown has a lot of talent.

Brown had to shorten his visit to WVa due to weather. West Virginia would be his leader if they offer. Brown is interested Illinois, Pittsburgh, Bowling Green and Toledo.

Brown says Bowling Green is his leader, and could be close to committing. He officially visited BG 12/2 and Toledo 12/9. He is waiting to see if West Virginia will offer (should find out this week) before he commits.

Committed to Bowling Green. Good luck to Jahmal

Two key Bengals choose Bowling Green, Toledo

Friday, December 23, 2005
From staff reports

They were key players in Benedictine's drive to the 2004 Division III state title and helped the Bengals reach the playoffs this year.

Now, seniors Jahmal Brown and Alex Steigerwald will test their mettle at the next level.

Brown, one of the premier running backs in Cuyahoga County, has made an oral commitment to Bowling Green. Steigerwald, one the area's most reliable place-kickers/punters, has given his commitment to Toledo.

"I like the Bowling Green campus, the players and coaches, and I have a real good chance of playing as a freshman," said Brown, a 5-10, 190-pounder who gained 1,349 yards and scored 20 touchdowns this season.

Brown also gained interest from Eastern Michigan, Toledo, West Virginia and Pittsburgh.

Undecided about his major, Brown will play safety for the Falcons.

Steigerwald is coming off a season in which he kicked 29 extra-points, seven field goals and averaged 42.9 yards per punt.

"The Toledo atmosphere reminded me a lot of Benedictine," said Steigerwald, who will major in business. "It's a small, cozy campus."

The 5-11, 170-pounder also considered West Virginia and Wisconsin.

"The coaches told me when two-a-days start, I'm their starting kicker," Steigerwald said. "That's all I really needed to hear."

Good luck to Brown at Bowling Green. They are getting a good one. I believe he would have had more offers if his academics were better.
