Reservoir quarterback Malcolm Brown ‘staying home', commits to Morgan State

Brown was in contact with Delaware, Old Dominion, St. Francis (Pa.) Syracuse and Towson, in addition to his offer from Morgan State University.

Reservoir QB @malc_brown on committing to local HBCU Morgan State:

“I feel like HBCUs are underfunded, they play good football and they just need more publicity. It’s going to be big play for an HBCU over a PWI, which is the other option.”
