He may very well be a great pick up and I'm pleased with all of the solid commits this early in the year (far more than we have ever had), but the recruiting sites don't seem to favor Brown. I'm taking the number of early commits as a sign that Taggart is confident in the talent (as opposed to holding out to see who might work out by the end of the season) and not concerned with how they might stack up against other recruits more favored by the recruiting sites. The hidden value is the Tampa connection. He is getting these kids together as friends. That will impact high rated recruits down the road who will buy into doing something special with their friends and being hometown stars. I agree with other posters though, don't value the stars. Taggart has been wise to surround himself with good teachers. They will teach these guys how to play good football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They currently have him listed as follows: ESPN:3 Star Rating - 74 rating - #78 OLB in the country Scout: 3 Star Rating - #102 best OLB in the country 247: 82 rating - #87th best OLB in the country, #171 in State Rivals: 2 Star Rating - 5.4 score It's really just Rivals that has him underrated here and I think I read that Singer expects him to get a bump up once he is further evaluated this fall.

It's important to beat Louisville when we're going after these guys, and that's what we did here. Offers from Kentucky, Louisville, Illinois and indiana aren't too bad.

Beating them on the field will truly turn the tide. We snagged a big DT from them last year, so we are using the leverage we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
