Fraud case involving former Alabama player targets NFL stars Penix and Njoku
Mekai Brown, a four-star edge rusher from Greenwich, Connecticut, will announce his college commitment on Friday. He is choosing between USC, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Texas A&M, and Ole Miss.
USC’s 2027 recruiting class has quickly been moving up in the rankings. Could the Trojans be adding another big prospect to it soon?
On Friday, four-star edge rusher Mekai Brown is set to announce his commitment. He will choose between a final five of USC, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Texas A&M, and Ole Miss.
Brown is a product of Greenwich, Connecticut. 247Sports Composite ranks him as the No. 49 overall player and the No. 6 edge rusher in the class of 2027.
“I talked to many people through this process and they said they've been ready to commit after every official visit so I just wanted to make the decision logically and not based off emotion,” Brown said in an interview with 247Sports.
“I think the relationship with [the position coach at the school that I choose] definitely matters. That is who I am going to be spending most of my time with and I think the guy I am putting the trust in developing me is not only going to develop me as a player, but as a man as well.
“I couldn't be more excited for the journey.”
Currently, 247Sports has the Trojans as the favorite to land Brown. We will find out whether Lincoln Riley and Chad Bowden did enough to secure his commitment on Friday morning, when Brown announces his school choice.
