To test our Lane Kiffin-is-smarter-than-you-may-think theory, we randomly called one of the nations top juniors, or 2010 prospects. Tailback Mack Brown of Atlantas M.L. King High has around 15 early scholarship offers, including Florida, Alabama, UGA, Auburn, Clemson, and Tennessee. He is a candidate to be the states No. 1 recruit for next year.
Brown was asked if he knew the name of Tennessees first-year coach? Lane Kiffin, and I talked to him Wednesday, Brown said without hesitating.
How about Clemsons new coach? They offered me yesterday [Thursday.] Brown paused. No sir. I talked to the running backs coach. Im not sure about the head coach. Sorry.
