LB Still Leaning Towards Two

Moncks Corner (S.C.) Berkeley linebacker Ryan Brown is one of the east coast’s remarkable talents. The 6-foot-2, 235-pound big man says any team could slip into the picture but he'll likely decide between the South Carolina Gamecocks and the Florida Gators.

"Yeah I would say those two are way out in front. South Carolina has an edge over Florida, but they are fairly close together, I guess. I mean I've been a South Carolina fan my whole life and I know the most about them. I know that I'm going to set up an official visit with both of those places soon."

Brown has attended two games this year. He attended the South Carolina-Temple game and the Penn State-Nebraska game. He’s considering the Nittany Lions, Tennessee, Miami and Florida State as well for visits.

"The main things I'm looking for are academics and how many players they are losing. I want to play early and be a factor. I also want to play for a coaching staff that I have gotten to know really well and players that I'm familiar with. I'm so familiar with everything about South Carolina. Their coaches and all their players, it will be tough for someone to beat them out, but I'm open to the idea."
