Blue Bloods Likely Pushing Fla. LB Brown Out of State

Defending national champion Georgia had an assistant coach, among several other Power Five programs, at Ft. Lauderdale (Fla.) St. Thomas Aquinas High School for a 6:00 am practice on Friday morning.

Jayvant Brown, a rising-senior linebacker who transferred in from Deerfield Beach (Fla.) for the 2022 season, wanted a chance to work in front of the staff but he's recovering from torn labrum surgery.

"I couldn't really show anything, so I was disappointed with that," Brown told Sports Illustrated.

The 6'1", 220-pound prospect holds tenders from most of the rest of the sport's top programs, however, including Alabama, Ohio State and LSU.
