Butler is in four-star 2020 guard Eugene Brown III’s top six, Xavier out

It’s good news for one Big East team, and bad for the other.

Four-star Class of 2020 prospect Eugene Brown III (Decatur, Ga./Southwest DeKalb) listed the Butler Bulldogs in his final six schools, but left off the Xavier Musketeers.

On Friday afternoon, Brown announced that he will be focusing on these six schools moving forward: Butler, Ohio State, Louisville, Texas A&M, and two home state teams in Georgia and Georgia Tech.

Xavier had been on Brown for two years, offering him back in August 2017. With the way the Musketeers’ recruiting class is shaping up and filling in, he might not have felt inclined to join the crowded picture.
