New Northwestern running back commit Jesse Brown needed just one day on Northwestern's campus to realize that he wanted to be a Wildcat.

Story: All in a day's work ($)
 
His tape is intriguing. His style reminded me of Darnell Autry a bit with his tendency to run with his shoulders square and what looks to be a wider stance. He looks thicker than a kid listed at 185. But the t hing that really struck me was his ability to read holes, find seams, and beat defenders to specific points and gain the next level. Looks like a runner who relies as much on vision, angles, and smarts as one who relies on physical talents. Not sure I buy the 40 time but he looks to have very smooth feet and good cutback skills.

This is all based on 7 minutes of tape, so I'd love to hear other opinions.
