Maryland athlete Sullivan-Brown will visit Duke

Laurel (Maryland) St. Vincent Pallotti’s Cameron Sullivan-Brown currently has a multitude of offers to his credit and counts Duke among them.

The 6-foot-1, 175-pounder told Devils Illustrated that David Cutcliffe’s program is an early factor in his recruitment.

“No doubt. I’m going up to Duke for the Duke/UNC game on March 9, I think it is,” he said. “I’m going to get a look around at the campus up there. They’re definitely under consideration.”

The three-star prospect said that Syracuse and Virginia Tech appear to the closest to offering, which would push his offer total up to 20 if it came to fruition.

The Duke coaching staff has been in contact with Sullivan-Brown, and two assistant coaches have also traveled to Maryland to check on him at his high school.

“Coach Derek Jones came up to my school maybe a couple months ago. The defensive coordinator came up two weeks ago,” he said. “I just got a feel for them. I like the way Coach Jones coaches his corners and DBs. He’s straight up.”

Listed as a wide receiver by Rivals.com, Sullivan-Brown is also capable of playing defensive back at the next level. Duke has him on the board as an athlete who could play either side of the ball.

Duke’s combination of academic and athletic prowess stands out here, as it does for many prospects on the Blue Devil radar.

“I know that they’re great academically. If I gradate from Duke, I could get a job almost anywhere. I know they won their bowl game. I like the way they play both sides of the ball,” Sullivan-Brown said.

Up next for Sullivan-Brown is a visit to Maryland for a junior day this weekend, followed by a midweek trip to Temple. He will see Syracuse later this month.

There are no leaders at this stage, but Sullivan-Brown knows what he hopes to find in a program at the next level.

“A school with a great athletic environment and coaches, great social environment, and what I want to major in which is broadcasting,” he said. “Once I make my visits, then probably a school will start to separate itself a little bit."
