South Carolina could get visit from Houston DB

South Carolina coach Will Muschamp this week offered linebacker Dontavious Jackson and defensive back Chris Brown, two heavily recruited teammates from Houston. Both were excited to hear from Muschamp, and both are interested in taking a visit in January.

Brown has taken official visits to UCLA, Arizona State and Michigan, so he has two that he can take January. He’s still reeling in offers, so he’s not sure yet who will get them.

“South Carolina is a possibility for a visit, most definitely,” Brown said. “Me and Jack are going to sit down and talk about it. I knew about Coach Muschamp from Florida. He’s a great coach. A lot of people say he’s crazy, but he’s a coach that’s going to coach. Everybody doesn’t have to be your best friend. I like a coach who will try to bring the best out of a player. That’s what you want in a coach.”

Some of Brown’s other offers include Duke, Houston, Louisville, Kansas, Wisconsin, Texas, Cal, TCU, Texas A&M and Florida. He has no timetable for a decision.

“Definitely when I feel most comfortable and when I feel like the decision needs to be made,” Brown said. “The process is not a hundred meter dash, it’s a marathon. It’s where I feel most comfortable and where the best opportunity is present to me.”

Brown plays corner, safety and nickel.

“I’m a very versatile player,” he said.

He had 40 tackles and 5 interceptions this season, giving him 10 picks over the past two seasons. He plans to put together a top five soon.
