Well going from football in the fall to track in the spring you have to drop weight. I think he’ll get his weight back up in the 180′s by the time the season starts. All that running to get in shape for track takes it out of people. I think by mid season he’ll have some plays put in for him.

170 is his track weight. This kid is a dedicated athlete with great discipline and incredible work ethic. Expect him to get up to 180 by fall. He will be a playmaker right out of the gate.

“Phenomenal” is probably a better word. He is “Spiderman.”

If he adds 30 lbs of muscle he won’t be able to do what he can do now. If you put him on the field every play, he will get hurt. Use him and his extraordinary talents when you need him and them. Hone his skills at receiver and free safety, then put him in when you must have a TD or an interception. Call him “Hero.” Let him be what he is, an extraordinary athlete. Don’t overuse him. Don’t let him get hurt trying to block a 250 lb. linebacker.

Seems like a great athlete

It is no coincidence that in tthe SEC most of the best athletes play defemse.

Put Chris at corner. That’s the team’s biggest need and he has the skills to be a great one.

I hope he spends a lot of time in the weight room. He will get killed otherwise and won’t be able to help out with blocking. I looked at his highlight video and he doesn’t break many tackles.

6’2″ 170 would be incredibly skinny, wouldn’t it?
That’s quite a discrepancy (vs 185 lbs).
Unless he gets his ass to some of those parties Goodman, Carlo and Tommy throw and beefs up the old fashioned way, he won’t see the field this year.

Anyone have any more info on this to clarify?

Those track numbers certainly are making the rounds online and blowing Brown’s profile up quite a bit. I have to 100% agree that unlike other freshmen he is coming in a position of true need and, more importantly, very little Saturday production.

While red-shirts are always an option, it’d have to be a major surprise if he’s not on the Hail Mary team early and getting a few reps in those first few games. It’s been said before, but getting these type of athletes on a regular basis can never be understated. Looking forward to Chris Brown’s early camp returns.

I guess in HS track a student athlete is limited in the number of events one can enter.
