Sammy Brown is the fifth-ranked prospect in the 2024 recruiting class, according to 247 Sports. The five-star prospect is the highest-ranked linebacker. Brown has narrowed down the list of schools he is considering to five, stating:
"I've kind of narrowed it down to five: Tennessee, Clemson, Georgia, Oklahoma, and Ohio State. That's kind of, that's the officials I have set right now. So that's kind of the five I've been focusing on."
While the Georgia Bulldogs are considered the favorites to land Brown, the Clemson Tigers, Ohio State Buckeyes, Oklahoma Sooners and Tennessee Volunteers remain in the mix. Despite five teams being involved as he approaches his final decision, the star linebacker is reportedly deciding between the Bulldogs and Tigers.
Take a look at where Brown, who is the highest-ranked 2024 prospect from the state of Georgia, will possibly wind up playing college football.

Speaking with Christian Goeckel of All Clemson, Brown revealed that he will look to make his decision the following week, stating:
"I think kind of the first week of July is what I'm shooting for just to get it over with and focus on senior year."
247 Sports' Crystal Ball has not made a prediction on where Brown will land. On3 Sports' Prediction Machine believes that the Bulldogs are the slight favorite, however.
Brown's former high school teammate Malaki Starks was a starter for Georgia's 2022 national championship-winning team as a true freshman. Furthermore, he hails from the state of Georgia. While things could change during his official visit process, Brown will likely wind up a Georgia Bulldog.
