In November 2003, Brown signed a National Letter of Intent to play college basketball for the University of Missouri.[2]
Brown earned first-team All-State and first-team All-Region honors playing for Lyndon B. Johnson as a junior and senior, was a three-time all-district selection, and was named the Cen-Tex Player of the Year by the Austin American-Statesman as a senior in 2003–04.[1]
College career edit
As a freshman at Missouri in 2004–05, Brown scored in double figures five times, including a season-high 12 points against Texas Tech on January 19, 2005.[1][3] In 33 games (six starts), he averaged 5.1 points and 1.9 rebounds in 16.8 minutes per game.[4]
As a sophomore in 2005–06, Brown scored in double figures 14 times. He recorded his first career double-double with 19 points and a career-high 11 rebounds against Eastern Illinois on December 28, and scored a season-high 21 points on 8-for-12 shooting against Oklahoma on January 10.[1][5] In 28 games (27 starts), he averaged 9.6 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 27.2 minutes per game.[4]

Following his junior season, Brown was diagnosed with a stress fracture in his pelvis which, along with a broken foot he occurred a few months later, sidelined him for the majority of the 2007 offseason. The injuries disrupted his senior season preparation as he went into the 2007–08 season with a lesser role in coach Mike Anderson's rotation.[7] As a senior, he averaged a career-low 4.5 points and made just three starts in 31 total games. He scored in double figures in five games, recording a season-high 14 points on 6-for-9 shooting against Texas on January 12, 2008.[8]
