Pharoah Brown Receives Visit from Mattison

Submitted by Marlin Jackson… on

I know it is just a message board post, but a 247 board has noted that Mattison recently visited Brown in his home.

I'm on board with this.  I think we delivered a message by dropping him, but ultimately, kids make mistakes and everybody deserves a 2nd chance.

This is really simple.  In any business transaction, it takes 2 parties.  If both agree on the same terms, you have a deal.  If you don't, there isn't one.  In this case, if both parties agree that PB will attend M, then M agree to keep his spot.  If PB isn't committed, M isn't either.  Doesn't mean there can't be further discussions, it just means we're not there yet.  When PB committed AND APPEARED TO BE HONORING that commitment, M did too.  When PB made it clear he wasn't committed yet, M simply took the stance that accordingly, they weren't either.  I don't get the impression there are hard feelings between the 2 parties, nor is the potential deal dead.  They simply have both taken the stance that there's more to discuss first.  Like many others here, I'd really like to see this work out and is still very possible.

I would like to have Pharaoh Brown back. The force is strong with him... and when I say that I mean his bench press is ridiculous

When they did their in-school visit, he was rocking a teal and mustard yellow alternate Oregon uni with actual duck feathers embedded in the shoulder pads. And it was signed by Lebron and D Wade. They put 2 and 2 together at that point...

Can we stop referring to Pharaoh Brown as "PB?"  There's only one true "PB" in this world, and it tastes really good with jelly, chocolate, bananas, celery, and lots of other things.

Anybody else having visions of Mattison and Pharoah at a luxurious party and then Mattison leans in and whispers "I know it was you Pharoah." No? Just me. Still, if I was Mr. Brown, I'd avoid any boating trips.

His 2010 film is impressive, but then I watched his 2011 film where he's featured more as a TE and less as a QB and man I was blown away. The kid has crazy talent. Unless his level of competition is weak I don't see how he can be rated so low.
