He's going to have to make up for the speed with instincts, toughness, & technique. Saying that reminds me of Deshaun Davis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuburnNTexas 7,167 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Welcome aboard and I have a feeling in a few years people will be very glad we gave him the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDUBB4AU 5,121 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 He will be knocking people out at HB . Could you imagine if he gets to 245-250 solid ? Glad he is on board 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And had no FBS offers other than AU? Seems very odd that UGA/Clemson/or Muschamp at USCe didn't even give him the time of day. Pretty sure part of it was that they knew if AU offered, he'd come here. Also, he's not the type prospect those schools try to sign early. He's more of a HollaBack type. Like Boobie Whitlow and Daniel Thomas were for us the last few years. Those two are doing ok, last time I checked. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With his stats, the school he player for and racking up those kind of #'s, I'd have thought more than one FBS program (AU) would've shown some interest. Good luck to him, I'm excited to see what he brings to the D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU64 10,122 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Schools sometimes get caught up in measurables for a kid..... but over the years the "un-measurables" often turn out to be the keys to success.....heart, intensity, determination, etc. If he's got those attributes, he will find a home at AU... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravejd 3,270 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 this is what you have to do if you have a FB/HB position to fill. Those guys are rarities in HS football these days. Gotta find those tough as nails MLB types that aren't quite quick enough for the DI level and convert them. Hopefully he like contact and wants to put in some hard work at HB 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His brother is Derrick Brown if you’re wondering why we are his only FBS offer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have every reason to assume that he's going to be a first class human being just like big bro. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all had the same upbringing but were totally opposite in a lotta ways. I hope you are right though and the coaches may have seen the same qualities in him as Derrick.

Usually. Given that both of these guys are extremely high-achieving football players, openly express their love for each other on social media, one followed the other here, the first one- the one they call a presidential nickname because of his intelligence and leadership ability- came here partially because of the shady crap that other schools tried to offer, the fact that the Brown family was widely discussed for their class and integrity when he was signed... ...yeah, until Baby Brown proves otherwise, I'm going to assume they're cut from the same high quality cloth. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUpreacherman22 3,888 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Welcome to the family Kameron!!! Prove them haters wrong! IMHO, he has a high ceiling at HB/FB. KB could be a beast lead blocker! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

autan 742 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I haven't seen or heard any haters regarding Kameron despite his 2* rating. I would expect him to be bumped to 3* if there is still time because everyone knows Auburn doesn't recruit 2* talent. But regardless we all know and trust that KB will put all his heart and soul and ability toward the success of our Auburn Tigers for the next four or five years. That being said there would be a lot of doubters and negative comments directed at CGM and/or staff for probably any other 2* out there and some 3* recruits as well if they didn't have the right credentials. War Eagle Kameron Brown!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnNTexas 7,167 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 After reading the article on Davis and Muschamp not thinking he could play but Steele comes in and immediately thinks he is a stud it makes me feel even better about Brown. Steele has proven he knows what an SEC LB looks like even if he is not tall enough or fast enough. Steele wants him at LB and TWill wants him at LB that is good enough for me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
