Sammy Brown is ranked as the No. 14 player in the class of 2024, per 247Sports. Brown is the second-ranked linebacker and the third-ranked player in Georgia.
Sammy Brown is a versatile three-sport athlete that runs track and wrestles in addition to playing football. Brown compiled 1,459 rushing yards on 181 carries and scored 21 rushing touchdowns in his junior season. The five-star also racked up 113 total tackles and added a sack.
Georgia recruited the linebacker position at an elite level in the 2023 cycle. However, the Dawgs missed out on Sammy Brown. Now, Georgia will look to earn commitments from other top linebackers. The Bulldogs have a commitment from five-star linebacker Demarcus Riddick, but the Dawgs are likely looking for a couple other linebackers to round out the class of 2024.
