'09 TN WR Marlon Brown (Georgia Signee)

[RB07OSU]

Game Over.

Just what I was thinking. Marlon seems to really like Tressel, so this can only help

 

[Buckrock]

When JT is personally involved in the recruitment of a player, i like our chances

 

[LitlBuck]

couldnt have said it any better and I agree on Robiskie.

Let's not forget Hartline. If he does not get drafted next year, I will be surprised as hell. Excellent speed and a big target. Okay back to Marlon

Rivals AMP Video

Marlon still lists the schools above. Mentions his bond with Coach Tressel and says he is in contact with Terrelle Pryor. It's hard not to be very encouraged by the last couple updates. I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much, but it seems OSU is a definite player here.

 

[Buckeyecty4]

Get him on campus and you never know. From that AMP piece, he seems like a really nice kid. And he just loves Tressel.

 

[DontHateOState]

I really liked how he knocked that kid over in the video. Granted the kid was half of his size, but it's always nice seeing a receiver block.

 

[WaitingforKickoff]

Tressel needs to get his mom's number....

 

[ryan20]

Hmmm... I dont think we could turn this kid away... the numbers are tough to figure out, but I would love to have this kid in Scarlet and Gray.

ESPN - Star receiver Brown top prize remaining in Tennessee - Football Recruiting

Marlon Brown, wide receiver
Harding (Memphis, Tenn.)
Considering: Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, USC, Ohio State, LSU

One of only two players from the state in the ESPNU 150, ranks as the nation's No. 2 wide receiver and a top-20 overall prospect. A two-sport athlete who also excels on the basketball court, Brown possesses the coveted traits of size and speed. At about 6-foot-5, he creates mismatches in the passing game.

We had a chance to see him in person at USC's Rising Senior camp and he blew us away with his physical tools. He is physical with defenders and uses his build to shield the ball and get position. His wingspan and ability to go up and get the ball makes him a valuable target in the red zone.

He posted a 127-yard performance with two touchdown catches of 25 and 79 yards in one game and an impressive 11-catch, 185-yard, two-touchdown outing in another to kick off the 2008 season. The coveted prospect has received interest nationwide and looks to have his eye on six schools. Ohio State and Georgia look to be set with visit dates, and the remaining four -- Tennessee, Florida, USC and LSU -- hope to land a visit.

Memphis may be a city known for the blues, but this native will make some college program very happy.

Seemingly some good news that we are one of his two officals thus far. I love big WR's.

From FightinGators.com...Marlon talks about each team in his top 5 (Tennessee, Ohio State, Florida, Georgia, and LSU).

"They had a lot of dumb penalties and stuff"

 

[BuckeyeNation27]

What's that adage about all SEC teams and OSU in the top 5?
