Mickey Plyler on Desmond Brown: "Brown reminds me of former Tiger Charpia on this one because Brown is a really tough kid. This is an athlete that excels against both the run and the pass. He is another high profile kid. If he had more height he would have been rated a little higher but this guy is a hitter that could play early. Brown really recruited hard for the Tigers after he committed."
