'15 CA WR Equanimeous St. Brown (Notre Dame Signed NLI)

[Jebediah Springfield]

No I understand what your saying and I completely disagree. The reason that interview reads the way it does is he's not trying to give anything away. For the most part schools are cooling on him but he wants to play out the process so he gets more attention. Thats why schools like Utah are being added to the list. Basically the opposite of what your talking about. The kid and family want exposure.

Is he trying to get more exposure for his siblings?

Pretty sure Golson and others were interviewed on the field after the Stanford game on NBC... at very least it was during the post game on NBC Sports...

 

[GBdomer]

ESB doesn't like talking to the media and you can just tell he doesn't like a camera in his face. But living in LA he would be covered by media. I really doubt Jake Brown and Pete Sampson people around ND media are going to scare him off. Now ND should probably limit how much time he spends around Tom Loy but I don't understand your point one bit. I am curious on what you think about it though

 

[Luckylucci]

Currently thats a thought thats been put out there by some at II. Which is funny because the younger brother is good enough that if they're just patient it will happen anyway.

 

[Irish8248]

I get a lot of interviews on the field after the game when I switch over to nbcsports, there's like a 30 min post game report following the game

 

[irishog77]

Can we go back to talking about weather?

I have basic cable. I don't get but 15 channels and seven of the are various HSN channels, QVC and WGN for some reason. I don't get TBS out of Atlanta but I get WGN out of Chicago.

 

[NDinL.A.]

LOL. I can only remember three tops in the last 4 years. Maybe my NBC station cuts out which would not be surprising, but I get BK and then the Alma Mater in the corner. That is it.

This is bull crap man. This will not stand. I don't get them. My apologies to the dude I called out but still....

Hmmm, maybe because I live in SB but I get the interviews all the time. Right after the Stanford game they interviewed Golson and Koyack on the field. After this last game, my DVR ran out, so all I got was the BK interview. But it feels like I've seen it much more than you have...

I always see interviews on the field after the game and I live in GA. Are you just too sauced up Cack?

Haha no. This stupid state does not even have a radio broadcast anywhere that covers ND.

 

[Cackalacky]

I am honesty pissed off right now. It goes way back. During the CW era, Jefferson Pilot aired the early ACC games on the NBC affiliate here. They would start at noon and not end till 4. Then the commercials....so many commercials.... I would maybe catch the ND game in the 2nd Quarter after watching Duke in a cripple fight with Wake Forest. Every dang week.

Fml.

WLSC in Myrtle Beach broadcasts Irish games...










... but only if they aren't on when clemson plays.

Youngest sibling, also a wide receiver and a Freshman, has got his first offer from Utah

Now this is all in! Offering the middle son was pretty standard. This is pushing your chips to the middle of the table. Very very little chance that schools are going to match this, if thats what they're looking for.

Especially considering his current size, I guess they are assuming similar growth to his brother

Amon-Ra is 5-8, 150 pounds

 

[IrishLion]

Ha! Could you imagine a 3-WR set that consisted of nothing but St. Browns?

And Amon-Ra? Egyptian history for dayyyyyyyyyys

 

[NDdomer2]

So the two younger brothers were named after Egyptian gods. What about Equanimeious?

 

[IrishLax]

So the two younger brothers were named after Egyptian gods. What about Equanimeious?

Explains it all:

The origin of the name Equanimeous St. Brown came long before the 6-foot-5, 190-pound wideout was born. His father, John Brown, had a college friend at Cal State Fullerton who was writing a book featuring a character named Equanimeous. Brown inquired about the name, and his friend said it was inspired by the word equanimity, which, according to Merriam-Webster’s online dictionary, means “calm emotions when dealing with problems or pressure.” Brown liked the name so much that he vowed to bestow it on his first son.

Brown followed through, and the result is one of the strongest candidates in the short yet illustrious history of the SI.com recruiting All-Name Team. St. Brown is a near lock given his unique first name alone, but his full name is even more distinct: Equanimeous Tristan Imhotep J. St. Brown. He has two brothers -- one a prospect in the class of 2017 who already has two Division I scholarship offers -- who are equals on the nomenclature hierarchy. There is Osiris Adrian Amen-Ra J. St. Brown, 16, and Amon-Ra Julian Heru J. St. Brown, 14.

For the life of me though I always wondered if they just misspelled "equanimous."

Sort of ironic that all three brothers have the word "Saint" and a pagan god in their names.

Explains it all:

Doubt it, though I can see how you might guess that. His name is likely a stylized variation of "equanimous", from the Latin aequus ("equal", "even") and animus ("mind", "spirit"). It means poised, collected, composed, etc.

Booya.

Is the 'J.' like the 'J' in Homer J Simpson?

 

[ResLife Hero]

Or their dad's first initial. I'm not sure you could fit John in there. Any 1 of them makes the all-name team already.

Didnt think of the George Foreman style

 

[IrishLion]

I would get so jacked up if I could shout "AMON-RA" in the loudest, deepest voice I could muster during a game.

Meh... idolatry and false gods are a sin...
lol

 

[Luckylucci]

Per TV, still a priority for the ND staff but is really gambling with his spot at the moment. Even a commitment from another position could take that away.

 

[Irishman77]

I will reserve comments , but this is completely fine by me!

I am a huge fan of Boykin and Alize ! Then Cager...

Agree with this completely. I'd like us to go all-in on Jones as the last WR/TE commit. Snag Jones, an RB, and any elite DB/DE who will join late.

We have four spots most likely. It will be TE/WR, RB, and S for sure with the best available next. Also, FWIW Loy thinks we end with Jones, ESB, Soso, and Buncom.

 

[ryno 24]

That would be a hell of a class. I want both ESB and Jones as they are two different types of players. Both elite pass catchers but ESB is a more developed Robinson, while Jones is Eric Ebron esque
