2013 WR Cedric Brown (Martinsburg, W.Va.) - OHIO Signee

Posted: 8/3/2012 10:00:23 AM

I apologize if someone has posted this elsewhere. I rarely read the recruiting thread, but perused it and did not find any info on Brown.

I live in West Virginia and stumbled upon news of this kid's committment to Ohio. I wanted to come here to find more info on him, but did not, so I went and found some of my own info. Here it is.

Brown plays for Martinsburg HS, the two-time Class AAA state champs in WV. Class AAA is the big-school conference in WV, like D-I in Ohio. In The Charleston Daily Mail's preseason football tab released July 27, Brown was listed 6-3, 185 and tabbed to the All-State Team. The tab listed Brown as Class AAA's leading returning receiver. Brown finished 2011 with 56 catches for 837 receiving yards, for an average of 15 yards/catch and 11 TDs. The tab stated Martinsburg will rely upon "Ohio wide receiver commitment Cedric Brown."

For those who care, Brown's Twitter handle is @IDoItForTheKidz. In his Twitter bio, he lists himself as an "OHIO U Football Commit."

Here's his ESPN recruitment player profile. It lists him a little smaller at 6-0, 165, with a 4.77 40-time.

A January article excerpt from The Daily Mail has some high praise for Brown, mentions he is the son of a former Marshall standout.

"Martinsburg's Cedric Brown and Spring Valley's Elijah Wellman impressed at the invite-only Proving Ground National Combine in Phoenix on Jan. 3, with Brown - the Bulldogs' All-State wide receiver and son of former Marshall standout Todd Brown - grabbing enough attention from recruiting guru Tom Lemming for Lemming to deem him West Virginia's top college prospect since Randy Moss."

A January article stated Brown was offered by Marshall and had interest from Georgia Tech, Tennessee, Rutgers and UCLA.

A June article said Brown visited a one-day camp at Duke.

From what I can gather in articles, Brown seems to have committed sometime in late June or July, but I cannot ascertain exactly when.

I found a couple higlight reels, too.

Nice find Mountain State Cat. Brown, who was a Class AAA first-team all-state selection this year, caught 57 passes for 846 yards and 12 touchdowns. He also intercepted three passes as one of Martinsburg's starting cornerbacks and had a punt-return touchdown.

Thought I'd contribute

You know what Frank Solich likes most about coaching in the MAC? While he gets older, his coaching competition stays the same age, man.

According to this article, he had an offer from Marshall. In another article, I read that his dad played for Marshall.

An update on Brown as he approaches the start of his senior season.

Here's an article in today's (8/20/12) Charleston Daily Mail on Brown.

I'd love to see this guy on the line of scrimmage against Louisville. I think he'll make big strides under coach Dixon.

And another one that slipped through Ohio's fingers. He was with Ohio for a couple years, but never played, though he did have some catches in a Spring game. He ended up transferring to the College of Charleston. In 2016 he played in 7 games, with no receptions, but he had 3 tackles, so I'm guessing he played special teams, or was moved to DB. In 2017 he had 1 catch for 37 yards, playing in 8 games:
