Jason Brown, 2024 5-star athlete, seeking substance over sparkle in recruitment

The state of Washington has been churning out elite talent in recent years.

And the class of 2024 will carry on that tradition with O'Dea High School five-star offensive lineman Isendre Ahfua and five-star running back/defensive back Jason Brown.

At Saturday's Northwest Showcase at Western Oregon University, Brown was the top running back - and just flat-out looked different.

Rated the nation's No. 4 athlete, the 5-foot-10, 194-pound ball-carrier already holds offers from Alabama, Florida State, Michigan State, Oregon, Texas, Texas A&M, USC, Washington and others.
