The only thing is that it would have been nice to have taken his visit to Bama after the others.Talk around town is that Bama is on his radar and we are at least a solid #2 on his list to Oklahoma.

Um.. on his radar? Ha, I'd say being one of the final 5 schools among all he had to choose from, and taking his first official visit to Alabama means a little more than just "on his radar" ;)

There is a good thing about being his first (official) is that good or bad it will stick with him. Just like interviewing people for a position to be filled you seem to always rememeber the 1st and last regardless of how well they did.

He's been saying that about every school since his list came out.He's building more interest in Brown by saying this.
Believe Brian Butler does not have to lie, hide the truth, or mislead anyone to get teams to be interested in Arthur Brown. If he says that Arthur has no favorite, then I believe he means it. Brown is not announcing a favorite, so he is considering all of his favorites and his first official visit was to Alabama. Both Butler and Brown have very nice things to say about Alabama and their visits.

Nation’s top prospect visits Alabama
Arthur Brown, Scout.com five-star linebacker and No.1 overall prospect in the country, released a statement about his official visit to Alabama. Brown was in Tuscaloosa for the Alabama-Georgia game.

“The fans are crazy about football and just being there you can tell how much they care about the football program and the players,” Arthur Brown said from Wichita-East, Kansas. “It [Bryant-Denny Stadium] somewhat resembles an NFL type stadium.”

For those wondering about Brian Butler the Program Director at Potential Players and his relationship with the Brown brothers here is a story from The Wichita Eagle on Butler's site. Butler is the recruiting gate keeper for the Brown family. The good thing is Butler seems very, very, impressed with Alabama, CNS and staff. That can only be a good thing.

Brian Butler says his role is simple" Help the children
My goal now is to put the recruiting in the family's hands," he said.

Which might be an odd choice of words, considering how involved he is with the Browns' recruitment. That, he explains, is at the family's request. Since the brothers don't have a cell phone -- another oddity since Butler is a T-Mobile manager -- and the parents don't have any interest in the recruiting world, Butler is the filter.

College coaches check in with him.

He receives recruiting mail addressed to the Browns.

It is Coach Steele who has a nice resume of putting LBs in the league. CNS recruits every kid. It's usually best for them to have a relationship with their head coach and position coach, although sometimes it is the regional recruiting coordinator like CMA in Texas etc.

Unless Butler is doing something illegal or breaking some kind of NCAA rules, I don't have a problem with him doing what he does. Let's face it, he has a point. Most people (especially ordinary folks) don't have a clue how the whole recruiting thing works. If the parents of these kids are satisfied, I don't see how anyone else can object, unless again, something illegal is happening or cash is exchanging hands OR NCAA rules are being broken.
