3* OT George Brown Jr. (OH) - Educate me

He's been putting out a lot of pro-Mizzou stuff lately. I know nothing about him and it seems to have been out of the blue here this week. All I know is what I read. Ton of offers. Those crystal balls all say UK. Who's pushing hard for him? At 253, I'm assuming he projects as a DE and not OT. Is his recruitment open or is he set on somewhere else and just enjoying the attention?

He's former Detroit Lions OL Lomas Brown's nephew. He's a future OT

Thanks. Gonna have to add 50 pounds. I guess not unusual these days.

Spencer Ware who used to play for us 2 years ago is his younger brother.

Is UK losing a lot of OL this year? I see yall already have 4 committed this early.

Only two this year for sure, starting LT Darrian Miller and backup OT/OG Teven Eatmon-Nared.
The '15 class needs to be OL-heavy because the staff has only signed (and gotten to campus) 7 OL in the last two classes and only two of those guys (J. Krok and K. Meadows) are for-sure tackle bodies.
The staff missed on two guys, Justin Day ('13 non-qualifier) and Derrick Kelly (flipped to FSU from '14 class) that would have shored up the tackle depth.
As it stands, UK will only have 4 tackle bodies on campus for '15. Two SRs in Jordan Swindle and Shaq Love, a RSSO in Kyle Meadows, and either SO or RSFR Josh Krok.
UK will almost certainly take 6 OL this year if possible and maybe even 7 if the right guys come. I think the two most likely targets are George Brown (OT) and George Asafo-Adjai (OG).
I believe current commitment Logan Stenberg is going to blow up this season and could flip somewhere closer to home ala Derrick Kelly.

How could Spencer Ware be his younger brother?

Apparently visiting Mizzou this weekend.

Has wanted an offer from AU for quite sometime. Probably won't get it.

His profile shows an Auburn offer?
Anyway, seems like a pretty heavy Mizzou lean at this point.

Rivals seems extremely bullish on him, saying he's the 118th best player. I haven't followed him closely, but I remember seeing this post, and then seeing the Rivals ranking and being a bit surprised

I'd love him at LSU but haven't heard much about him since Grimes came on board. Kid has a ton of upside but as someone else said, he needs to add about 40-50 pounds. Not unusual. Kentucky seems to be the frontrunner and have been for a while.

If he's at 260ish now, he needs a redshirt year and that's it basically. He can be at 285-290 by his rFR year I'd say. I wonder if OSU is going to offer. OSU has 2 commits and passing on an in-state tackle who has upside is a gamble for sure

Agree and think Meyer and co will give him a hard look this summer. Things have changed around there since Meyer came in so its harder to predict the Ohio kids they will go for. Hes doing fine with his approach but some OSU fans would prefer more Ohio kids be in the fold on a yearly basis. LSU has its share of those as well.

Curious where you're hearing this from? Sources or just those crystal ball thingies? As of late, he has been all over Mizzou on twitter. Mizzou also just offered a team mate who is a 3* LB. Both are coming now this weekend. It might be just because it's all new and when things settle, he leans back to UK, but right now, the kid is all over Mizzou.

My guess is you guys offer at some point. I'm assuming they have bigger targets that they're pursuing hard as of now.

There's offers and there's committable offers. Doesn't really make sense but it's how the recruiting game in the SEC works.
We only have one or two more spots to fill for the OL. Those are saved for Martez Ivey, Javon Patterson or Darryl Williams.

I'm not sure of that actually.
OSU is in great shape for Burrell, Clark (so OSU insiders say) and Prince, so I'm not sure there will be room assuming we get 2/3. Smaller class and bigger needs IMO.
I hope he gets an offer because you hate to see talented kids not get offered, and then it comes back to bite you either from that kid, or from that kid's program. Have to keep your in-state HS coaches happy sometimes
