Noah Brown was a highly sought-after recruit. Universities like Notre Dame, Virginia Tech, Michigan State, Penn State, USC, and Pittsburgh, among others, all offered him scholarships.
Once he was done with high school, Noah looked into Ohio State University, where he became a standout on the football team as a wide receiver, running back, and kick returner.
His hopes of becoming a wide receiver in college were ruined when he suffered a leg injury that caused him to break both his tibia and his fibula. As a result, the college forced the wide receiver to wear a red shirt for the rest of the season because he needed surgery.
Noah Brown got better quickly after his surgery and was able to go back to practice as a sophomore in 2016. He played in 13 games and had a total of 402 offensive yards, 7 touchdowns, and 32 receptions.
In addition, he was regarded as the second-best player on the squad. During the game he played against Oklahoma, he caught 5 receptions for a total of 72 yards and set a new record for his school by scoring 4 touchdowns in a single game.
To the astonishment of many pundits, the football player opted to forgo the final two years of his collegiate career in order to enter the 2017 NFL Draft because he was so confident in his ability to play. For one, he was only a one-year starting quarterback, and two, he was projected to go late in the selection.
