Some of these kids pick schools for the most obscure reasons....what ever happened to academics and tradition? Give me those kids and I'll go against a team full of Bryce Brown's any day.

So on the show, Bryce was on with Brian Butler... On Tennessee, said he had a good visit, "lots of nice people down there." Also says "he spend lots of one on one time with Coach Kiffin talking about the offense and how he would fit in." He mentioned taking an "unofficial" visit to LSU in a couple weeks.

Lots of K-State homers calling in trying to pump him up on K-State but his reactions were luke warm.

He did sound upbeat about Oregon... talked about how the uniforms and "shoes you get," said "Oregon sells it self and they care about their players." He was impressed with how they handled Dennis Dixon's injury, especially how they set up a website for him giving the NFL scouts updates on the progress of his rehab, Bryce said that showed how much they care.

Bryce called the CFL rumors "non-sense."

Said he is going to announce on March 16th now...

Thats it...

Sounds like Goldie Hawn in Private Ryan wanting the uniforms in another color this kid is looking for the glass slipper...

As much as I would like to see this kid come to UT. I'm just burnt out on the whole drama. I don't really care what kind of kid he is, shy, reserved, quiet, drama queen. I just don't give enough of a sh1t about what he does to even open this thread anymore. If he comes fine, if he doesn't that's just fine to.. Good luck Bryce with whatever you decide. See you guys in the other threads...

I just find it odd that a kid still has all these visits after NSD, his mentor, and all this national media attention and it's not about him getting off on all this.

I dont know if he is soaking up all the attention he can get or not, but the way he acts on interviews and in person (from what I read) does not seem to match the rumors off him being the type of person who thinks its all about him. He has made the comment that he doesnt watch to be the focal point of an offense, he seems sincere and respectful in interviews, and the fact that he has an advisor actually means that he is getting less media attention than he would if he was available to anyone who came calling from a recruiting service. He doesnt do alot of interviews and anyone that wants to contact him has to go through his advisor, which means less news to report. How much info would be splashed al over the internet if he were available to Hubbs, Low, Rivals, Scout or any other recruiting service? I bet this thread would have exploded by the night he left town if he made himself available to them.

Again, I dont know him personally or even profess to know alot about him. But just from an observers standpoint, if it were not for the article about his advisor, I think a lot more people would think of him as pretty low key for a top ranked prospect.

Maybe he actually is trying to take his time and make a good decision. He did decide late in the recruiting season that he better take other visits because Miami might not be the best place for him.

I've actually spent some time in Eugene, the Pacific Northwest is great, but Eugene is a hick town... probably even more country than Knoxville. They have a strong fan base, but honestly I can't understand what would attract a kid aside from the Nike connection... they are an annual whipping post for USC, they have a historic but dinky stadium, total hippie town... isolated from any big cities. Not that Knoxville is a bustling metropolis, but it is head and shoulders above Eugene.

P.S. Oregon chicks.... not that hot.

I think that info posted further solidifies my view on Brown.
All he thinks about is himself, and nothing about his teammates. It's all about what he can get out of something. He is the athlete that would rather win and MVP than a Championship Trophy.

If he's as good as projected - he doesn't need to worry about free shoes or crazy looking uniforms. Money won't be a problem in a few years.

This is all crazy I think the whole shoe deal is another attention getting drama deal. The shoes are something that I wouldn't let my dog crap on...

EB and Rod Wilks are friends, and Rod Wilks says that he doesn't mind the trash talk. I'm just sayin, better sleep with your eyes open.

He probably didn't want to say anything that got posted here or, even worse, on some wanna be VolNation/ESPN affiliate board. He'll open up after he signs. I think he's just trying to make the right decision and that decision is not as obvious to him as it is to us.

Welcome!:hi:

I am not sure it was that so much. He said that Brown was really laid back and cordial to everyone, but he just seemed like he might not be all that into the party scene. He and some of his buddies (also on the team) all agreed that the kid was really hard to read in terms of whether he was having fun or not.

Thanks for the welcome. I have been on GVX before but recently came across this site and finally decided to share some of the stuff I have heard.

Doesn't sound like he will choose Oregon if he doesn't want the entire team resting on his shoulders...........I wouldn't count Kiffin out, because if he wants Brown, he certainly won't make it an easy on him to say no. I am most worried about LSU, because of the article on his website and the "unofficial" visit to LSU. Does that mean he is going to LSU for his last visit, or does that mean he is making an "unofficial" visit to LSU after his last visit? Either way, I would be worried that he will jump on board with Les Miles' already monster class............

btw, seems like a kid with a good head on his shoulders, doubt he is worried about free shoes...........and Oregon girls are hot :)
