I asked Brown if there was a highlight from the Pool Party event.
"Definitely their player-led practice session. It was exceptionally smooth, and I thoroughly enjoyed watching it."
What was the message from the Texas coaches?
"Coach Jackson, the receiver coach, sat and talked with me and my parents. He mentioned that he believes I am a good fit for their culture and shared with my family where he sees me fitting into the offense and on campus. He advised me to control what I can control, which includes my junior year season, both on and off the field. He also emphasized continuing to build our relationship. I appreciate his approach because it focuses on relationships, which is crucial for me. I need to feel that the school I attend works for me as a person."
What was on the menu/what was your favorite dish?
"They served Pluckers wings and tenders, some salad, and there were some food trucks available, although I didn’t eat from the trucks. My favorite was definitely the Pluckers wings though."
What does your timeline look like over the next few months for visits and what other schools are in consideration?
"I am planning to visit a couple of other schools before the school year begins. Once school starts, I want to focus on my season and start my college classes at my high school. I do plan to attend some college games, but we haven't mapped everything out yet. Texas is one of the top schools on my list. It's important for me to get to know the staff and understand where I fit within the program and the school that I choose."
