I remember watching a highlight clip of Brown in HS--I don't recall if it was shown during an ND game or his Heisman Trophy ceremony--but all I could think was how the hell did his HS team win only 1 game with his talent?

The clip shown was some 90+ yard kickoff or punt return TD. He had zero blocking and weaved and sped his way past all 11 defenders. It was unreal.
After seeing that clip it was obvious he was a 1 man team and rare talent.

Brown didn't make the Parade AA team but I remember a top 100 list came out and he was ranked #4 overall in the country. There was an interview with an anonymous Nebraska coach/scout who claimed Tim Brown was their #1 rated player in the entire country.
