I think 6'1 is being generous...He might be 6'1 or 6'2 but he plays like he's 6'5. Monster on the way
Imagine thinking that moving to a region in Ohio that would require you to play Bishop Watterson, Massilon (either Perry or Washington), Lake, Mount Vernon and Westerville South as a 'step down in competition'....plus playing in the OCC already....![]()

Jamier Brown explains Ohio State's role in his HS transfer
Jamier Brown's purpose at Big Walnut is to be closer to the Ohio State University. Well, and a lot more than that.
The Ohio State Buckeyes were the sole reason Class of 2027 5-star receiver Jamier Brown left Huber Heights Wayne High School to join Big Walnut in Sunbury this past January. That's what Brown admitted to Ashland Source's Curt Conrad.
Per Brown, when asked about his decision to leave the Dayton metro for the Columbus metro, "I wanted a change of scenery and to be closer to Ohio State. ... When God closes one door, He always opens another, and that's what He did for me."
Brown explained after committing in November 2024 that the Ohio State University was his dream school. That message has been consistent through the reaffirmation of his commitment in May. Clearly, this is a spiritual decision for Brown. When you grow up in Ohio, you tend to wear Scarlet and Gray your whole life and feel it destiny to run out onto Safelite Field at Ohio Stadium.
Brown's decision to transfer to Big Walnut meant moving from the Greater Western Ohio Conference to the Ohio Capital Conference. It may be a step down in competition, on paper, at least, but given he's already committed, it may be a smart play for Brown. The media access in the local market will be good for his brand.
Plus, if we're being real, if there's one person who deserves the chance to transfer as he pleases, it's one of the most influential figures in Ohio in making NIL legal for high schoolers via an emergency referendum from the OHSAA.

What Brown accomplished in getting high school kids paid is something that will last for generations. Before ever stepping foot on campus and taking a snap, Brown is already a legend in the state of Ohio. Getting high school kids paid is a social justice issue that narrows the inequality gap. Brown helped explain how it gives kids financial literacy.
