New to the board, but I have been looking around and I've seen a few people asking about the Brown brothers.

I have the privilege of watching practice everyday. Both play scout team because they are sitting out this year, so it's kinda tough to get a definitive report but this is what I got:

Arthur:

easily the fastest scout team player on the field
aside from Hrebec, he is the best form tackling LB
flies to the ball and like to look for the big hit when he gets an opening
not overly physical when taking on blocks, but he has the quickness to avoid and get underneath most lineman
decent form when filling gaps and stuffing the hole, he is very flexible and uses his hips well for leverage
its tough to tell for sure whether or not he will live up to the hype, he has the tools but from what I have heard his problem at Miami was reading blocks and reading run/pass which is tough to simulate for a scout team guy

Bryce:

VERY EXCITING PLAYER
when he first came in, he ran hard day in and day out, as the year went on he proceeded to try less and less at practice, not a great sign about his work ethic but I'm optimistic that competing for playing time will rekindle that flame
has a similar stride to DT, but faster
rare blend of power and speed, when he is playing hard he can run around you or right over you
decent hands, really excels in space and cannot be covered by a linebacker, safeties will have a hard time
like i said earlier, closely resembles DT in his running style and vision, great explosion thru the hole, finds a seam and hits it as hard as he can

Hope this helps

I now almost expect Arthur Brown to be the next Smoke Patterson. Thanks for the report.

I heard that they are two dudes who where bandannas to practice and just kick the crap out of anybody who looks at them the wrong way. They aren't really brothers, but they cut their hands one day and put them together to be blood bros for life. I'm not sure what positions they play; they may just be enforcers for practice.

Source?

This is some solid insidery info. Dude seems legit!

we should call them the brown enforcers. i'm going to make a sign if i go to a football game next season.

everyone try to remember the sign, it will say "brown enforcers" on it. look for it at one of the games and say hello if you see the sign. i will be holding it.

I thought Bryce couldn't practice last fall because he didn't get a release. Am I wrong?

The taking on blocks part was most concerning to me. This is very important with our shitty DL.

MobDeep · « **Reply #18 on:** January 12, 2011, 11:15:10 AM »

I realize that being the best form tackler on our defense is like being the smartest kid with down's syndrome. Hopefully bringing in JL will help with that.

My question is how is Arthur at getting blocked. In the Chris Cosh defensive scheme, LB's are used to occupy blockers so that our safeties can tackle the opposing running backs 10-20 yards downfield. Very important for a LB to be able to occupy those blockers.

Hrebec is a pretty damned good form tackler. He blows because he is too slow to be in position and makes most of his tackles after a 5-6 yard gain.

He has the brain of a good linebacker stuck in a frail ginger body.

I wouldn't consider him frail... just a ginger. But thats bad enough.

Alex is a great guy and the head of the team's chapel group... but nice gingers do not win games.

If we want to win, we need to revert to hoodrat's and gangbanger's

I am disappointed to hear we even have a chapel group.

It's not necessarily a bad thing.
