Sounds like if we weren't in trouble so much, would have had another good player:

Brown made official visits to Nebraska, Oklahoma, Iowa, Notre Dame and his hometown school, SMU. Having narrowed the field to Notre Dame and SMU based on academics, he signed with the Irish with the blessing of his mother, Josephine.
He also was concerned with SMU's propensity for NCAA probation. (Had he signed with the Mustangs, he would have been prohibited from bowl play as a sophomore and junior, would not have been able to play on live TV as a junior, and would have faced the decision of transferring to play as a senior after SMU received the death penalty.)
