Boeing Brown

  • This is a post from Connor Mitch's Facebook. Boeing is a great kid! He understands that Mitch was the qb target Spurrier wanted in this class. However, he still loves USC and is honestly considering the preferred walk-on status. That is not a rumor. I talked to him personally and he told me this. He is a wonderful guy from a great family. I love Connor Mitch but I sure wish we could get Boeing in here as well!

    "Congratulations Connor for selecting the Gamecocks! They are lucky to have you and I envy your selection! I am glad to have become friends during the process and meeting you and your family, good luck, work hard and know you have a huge fan base there! I have really enjoyed the Gamecocks fans supporting me during the recruiting process as they are very passionate! Good luck buddy and best wishes to your Mother, Father and family! Now Coach Spurrier has to stay for another 3-years, nice job! God bless you, your friend, Boeing Brown!"

  • Hope the kid comes to USC anyway; he loves this school and deserves it.

  • Great kid and an asset to any program. He'll have several college options but he is definitely all Gamecock.

  • Agreed. Boeing Brown is pure class. In a perfect world we'd have a scholarship for him. Wherever he goes, he'll make it a better place!

  • That is pure class, and kinda makes me sad.

    I wish Boeing was born 5 yrs earlier. Or, if we would have had him back in the Tommy Beecher and Co. Days.

    Kid is a victim of our success. We would be lucky to have him.

    Isn't Boeing a big kid, with a pretty strong arm? How are his grades? From what he sounds like, he is a kid who makes excellent grades. If anyone knows him, tell him to get online and apply for every scholarship he is eligible for, then tell the HBC which ones he applied for. If Vandy baseball can do the crap they do, we can get a good kid an academic scholarship. He would be admitted to USC as a student regardless, so that is already more on the up and up than what vandy does.

  • Man, I just looked at Mr. Brown's profile page. He is not showing one, ONE offer from all 16 schools that are listed.

    So, then, as I am prone to do, I watched his highlights.

    He may not be able to beat out some QB's at a major program, but, I am telling ya'll, that kid is FAST. The last thing I was expecting was to go on there and see someone that can run like Connor Shaw, but that is what happened. He may not have quite the ridiculous sprinters speed that Connor has, but it is extremely close.

    That kid needs to go run in front of some college coaches. He is 6'4", and could easily, EASILY play receiver for someplace like K-Y. If I were the HBC, I would offer this guy as an athlete. He will play, and be a starter, at some position for somebody that is smart enough to give a good kid an opportunity.

    He is the Ryan Brewer type who has been snubbed for too long, and he is going to put a beating on some people when he finally gets his opportunity.

  • Kentucky is going after him very hard now. I think that is where he will end up based on my conversation with him. However, he is still seriously considering preferred walk-on status at USC. That says a lot about how much he loves Carolina.

    He will earn a scholarship if he comes to Carolina. Hope he does come here.

  • The only issue is that we're losing a few scholarships the next few years and we don't NEED him. I guarantee the coaches WANT a guy like that, but at what cost? Take away an extra scholarship from a guy like Larenz Bryant or Matt Rolin (Just two examples of guys left on the board, not what I think will happen)?
