had a mixed but active outing in the first-round playoff matchup against Parkersburg. He contributed a touchdown, but also picked off a Big Reds’ pass, and made his presence felt defensively with two pass breakups as well. Brown’s all-around involvement highlighted his known versatility as an athlete and can impact the game in multiple ways for the Hawks.

‘s ability as an offensive playmaker, but he’s gotten to showcase his defensive prowess more this season through the first three weeks for the Hawks. His ceiling was always high on that side of the ball once more opportunities came his way to showcase it, and Brown has proven that in the first three games. Brown’s quickness and agility allow him to react and close on the ball in pass coverage at a high level, with the flexibility to turn upfield explosively when tracking the ball. He’s a very underrated prospect in the 2026 class and needs more college attention.

will be an excellent weapon at University’s disposal this season. He can play several different positions, but likely makes his biggest impact at receiver as a senior. His athletic versatility should be intriguing to every D2 program in the state this year.
Here’s what we recently said about Brown in our 2026 Rankings Stock Risers article:
“University’s

is another highly versatile athlete who likely settles in at receiver at the next level. He should have a very good season for the Hawks at that position, although he’ll have to share touches with a host of fellow talented receivers in their skill group. Playing a lot of quarterback last season made him a tough eval, but Brown has a ton of upside as a WR or DB and should get a bigger sample size this season.”

A 2026 prospect who is likely to have a breakout senior year is University’s

. Brown ranks as an ATH right now after seeing time at quarterback last season, but will most likely play receiver at the next level. He’s deserving of a rankings bump soon with a flip to WR coming during the summer rankings update. Brown is very athletic and is a glider as a runner with quick feet and very good quickness. He has very good change of direction ability and does a nice job making defenders miss after the catch as well. Brown’s release off the line is explosive, and he’s able to accelerate to top speed very quickly.

Another PRZ WV Combine participant who earned Top Performer honors and now making his debut in the 2026 rankings is University WR/DB

. Brown will enter as a DB prospect where he was a Top Performer with the potential to move to WR or ATH in the future. He should have a much bigger role for the Hawks as a junior and is even in the mix for quarterback reps as a new era of University football gets underway. Brown flashed early in the season in 2023 as a sophomore and we’re eager to see him take a step forward as a junior with expanded opportunities.
We’ll get a better idea of his game after this season, but from what Brown has shown this off-season, he’ll be a prospect to know sooner rather than later.

last season as a sophomore but he appears to be poised for a breakout junior season for the Hawks. Brown had a strong showing on both sides of the line and could’ve been selected as a WR or DB Top Performer. The college coaches teaching and evaluating him elected on the defensive side to praise him for his performance where he was named DB MVP. Brown posted one of the best L Drill times of the day with a blazing 7.2 second time and backed up the small glimpse we got of his athletic ability last season.
Brown will only continue to get better the more he adds size to his frame which will bolster his athletics even further and raise his ceiling higher as a prospect. It was a great start to his junior year off-season, and Brown should prove to be a more productive player for University this fall.

. He looks like someone who is poised for a breakout junior year in 2024 and flashed serious playmaking ability as a sophomore in the games that he played. Brown did so as a receiver and returner on special teams but has DB versatility that we may also see at the combine. He’s an under-the-radar prospect heading into the event who could quickly turn heads with his performance. With a limited available sample size right now, our question for Brown at the camp will be can he prove the good hunch we have about him as an athlete and show he’s ready to break out in 2024?

Brown is one of the bigger wide receivers on our watch list at 6-foot-0 and 150-pounds. Also plays basketball for University High School. One of the better athletes on our watch list, I’d love to see more game tape out of Brown with only a few clips available. But in what is available, he shows signs of being a very good athlete who shows fluid hips and great acceleration and explosiveness in his game.
