Ohio RB Irving Brown is a power-built redshirt freshman with untapped upside
Irving Brown enters the 2026 season as an Ohio reserve back with a sturdy 5-foot-10, 215-pound frame and a promising downhill profile after not playing in 2025; his high school résumé was loud, including a record 2,130 all-purpose yards in a season and first-team all-state honors in 2023. In 2026, he has started the year with limited production—2 carries for 10 yards—so the big story is development, not volume. If you want a physical runner who could grow into a dependable complementary piece, he’s a name worth watching.
