Steele's Brown commits to UT

Disappointing, but not at all a surprise, especially when Mack Brown had Mama on his side.

Yelp seems to be true, I still believe that this story is no where near over, I seen an interview with CMB today on jim bum is burning, and he was talkin about how they were going to change the offense completely to what UT fans are familiar with. Going to the power running attack because of inexperience at QB and skill pos. This lets you what type of back that MB is, I just will believe it, when i see UT running this offense.. It is a long way to NSD and I trust our staff more than anything so I believe that we are still going to get either MB or IC..

Seems I recall two kids by the name of Ricky Williams and Ced Benson playing for Texas. It's not like they have never ran the football in Austin. My guess is that they will adapt their offense somewhat instead of just wasting this kid's talent.

We all knew this kid was going to be hard to pull but at least we were in it to the very end.

As expected.

Texas Longhorns: Malcolm Brown commits to UT

Cibolo Steele’s Malcolm Brown, the No. 1-rated player in the state on this year’s Fabulous 55 and one of the top-rated running back prospects in the country, committed to the Longhorns on Wednesday night.

He’s the big prize in what already is a big 2011 recruiting class for Texas.

Brown, 6-1 and 220 pounds, is Texas’ highest-profile running back recruit since Cedric Benson. He rushed for nearly 2,200 yards and 33 touchdowns last year.

“I was very comfortable up in Austin,” Brown told the San Antonio Express-News. “The coaches were real down-to-earth, and I know it’s the right fit.

He chose the Longhorns over Alabama.

Do you guys think this one's over or do you think there's a chance he is unhappy with UT's offense this season and compares it to what Trent and Mark do, thus leading to him switching?

It is over.

Scout.com: Brown Hooks Top Player

According to sources close to the Steele football program Texas Longhorn head coach Mack Brown has once again nailed down the top prospect in the state of Texas by securing a verbal commitment from 5-star running back Malcolm Brown.

The big news of the day in the recruiting world was supposed to be the commitment of Ely High (Fla.) super athlete James Wilder, who is rated as the 6th best prospect in the country by Scout.com.

Wilder did in fact select Florida State over offers from Georgia and Florida, but the late afternoon commitment news was quickly trumped on the national scene by the profoundly quiet super star Malcolm Brown, a 6-foot-0, 220-pound running back from Cibolo Steele High (Texas), who chose the Longhorns with little publicity or fanfare over Alabama and other elite level offers.

?Ely High?

As long as Mama wants him to go to UT, he will be going to UT. It's not like the world just ended for us.

 

[Trobinson97]

Congrats to Brown and to Texas.

I think it is over for Brown and Bama. If he had any reservations he would have waited to see the UT offense before deciding.

?Ely High?

the best part is if it ruined Wilder's circus he put on.

Well hope he likes pass blocking...

This will seem like sour grapes but I don't care.. I like Crowell better..

I'm disappointed too, but ever since I found out his Mama wanted him to stay home I knew it would be an uphill battle to get him. Add to that Mac Brown seldom has let a top-ranked player in that state get away and go elsewhere.

 

[RollTideinKY]

MAMA always wins doesn't she.. I am bummed about it but, hard to blame a kid that wants to stay closer to home that has a chance to play for high class program in his back yard..

 

[Heisman4Bama]

I dont think it sticks after Brown sees that the Texas running backs get the ball 20% of the time and he sees the Ingram/Richardson tandem competing for Heisman trophies and 1st team All-American teams plus first round picks dont hurt either.

 

[Heisman4Bama]

Now that Brown is off the board time to put the full court press on Crowell.:BigA:

 

[BEATtutorsee]

Not a surprise at all. Good luck to the young man, he seems like a quality guy.

Seriously?! Why? Why on earth?
