2010 BU recruit- Jordan Brown

[romar]

Well this is good news. Seems like a great get, especially for a walk-on. The fact that he can get an academic scholie is a great thing to have to, gotta love that.

Sorry if I missed it, but does anyone know how good of a 3 point shooter this kid is? That is the one thing I have been wanting for the year after this year's team.

In the highlight film he makes several. Appears to have a bit of a "push" shot like Crouch had in HS. Hopefully he'll have the same eye.

But I thought we already had a Jordan and a Brown on our team?
I like his 3-pt. shot - good follow-through.
Would be nice if he plays good D with his quickness and length.

No dunk highlights??

dunk highlights don't mean a lot...unless you're 51 years old...

Just about every recruit on the Top 1000 rankings can dunk

Ya you don't always know from a highlight video though, because it is obviously intended to look good. From the video though it seems to be a somewhat quick shot, and he keeps the ball high when he catches it so that's good.

Haven't seen Jordan's name added to BU's roster for this year yet. Is he enrolled this fall?

[Da Coach]

I don't think he was enrolled for the summer sessions, so he wouldn't have been listed prior to the fall classes starting. However, I haven't heard any reports of him being with the team either.

[tornado]

He has not been with the team at any of their events thus far -- maybe he's going to redshirt...I also haven't seen Ned...but it doesn't mean he's not around, maybe he's hitting the books

BTW -- the roster has been updated, and Ned is NOT on the roster any more...his name was there a few weeks ago but no longer..
Walt Lemon has #25, Andrew Davis has #23, Egolf has changed from #21 to #54..

Prosser is up from 220lb to 240lb
Dodie is up 5 lb
TB is up almost 20 lbs (and we have seen this is not exaggerated)
Milos is up almost 15 lb
AT is up to 232lb

..and for the first time since 2003-2004 there is no Sam Singh on the roster!

Destined to be a collector's item!

According to this article from April, Bradley was one of several schools Jordan was looking at http://www.ajc.com/news/atlanta/stud...nd-471603.html.

However, he was also looking at his late father's alma mater of Morehouse College which is in his hometown of Atlanta.

Not sure if this is him, but this Jordan Brown's facebook says he goes to Morehouse http://www.facebook.com/jordanbrown10.

I think it is him, and he has moved on based on all the info we have heard.

I did a little sleuthing based on that facebook profile, and I don't think that is him.

First of all, his network is Morehouse, 2010. Which means that he would have graduated high school in 2006 and would be 22 years old currently and either a recent grad or soon-to-be grad. The other Jordan Brown would be 18 and would be expected to graduate in 2014.

I also compared his facebook profile picture with this confirmed photograph of the Jordan Brown that committed to Bradley

http://www.ajc.com/news/atlanta/students-try-to-find-471603.html

They look somewhat similar, but if you look closely, the kid in the facebook profile picture has a tattoo on his right forearm. On the picture of Jordan Brown holding the basketball, there is no tattoo. Not saying you're wrong, but it's my opinion that these are two different people. Still, it is strange that we haven't heard anything about him.

[egib52]

I noticed the Morehouse thing too, but without being his friend I was thinkin maybe he entered it wrong. I think they look similar but did not notice the tattoo thing.

FWIW a search on the BU student directory did show a Freshman named Jordan Brown from Atlanta, GA.

[jeffsu]

His tweeds (though incessant) dont indicate he's not coming here anymore. They've always been about BU and interacting with our team.

[jeffsu]

Just checked... He tweets about a specific Prof from a gen Ed that I had, too...


He's at BU, folks.

[PTownHawkeye]

Nice investigative work, Jeff! Now, the real question...is he going to be a member of the team?

Can you go ahead and get to work on that one?
