One of the nation’s best young prospects, regardless of position, is Sammy Brown of Jefferson (Ga.) High School.
Brown, who plays linebacker and running back at the prep level, checks in as the nation’s No. 1 linebacker and the country’s No. 5 overall prospect in the 247Sports initial top 100 rankings for the class of 2024 that was released this week.
While a couple of schools are recruiting Brown as a running back, most view him more as a linebacker – including Clemson and defensive coordinator/linebackers coach Brent Venables.
The 6-foot-2, 220-pound sophomore worked out for Venables and the Tigers at the Dabo Swinney Camp in June.
