Football: BYU offers Skyline Junior Algernon Brown
With only a couple of scholarships left that have not been spoken for by members of the Class of 2009, BYU football coaches are clearly starting to target players from the Class of 2010.

One of those players is Algernon Brown, a running back from Skyline High in Salt Lake City. The Cougars offered a scholarship to the junior over the weekend, a source confirmed on Monday.

Brown rushed for more than 400 yards as a sophomore last year, but has been hampered by an injury this season. He did rush for 85 yards on 17 carries in a loss to Highland a few weeks ago.

Brown as listed at 6-foot-1, 205 pounds on Skyline's roster. He is also the team's punter.

--------------------

Also, BYU recently offered Kona Schwenke, a 6-foot-5, 200-pound defensive end from Kahuku High in Hawaii, according to the same source.

The other juniors that have offers in hand from the Cougars include Jake Heaps, a quarterback from Issaquah, Wash., Gifford Timothy, an offensive tackle from Delaware; Zac Stout, a linebacker from Westlake Village, Calif., and V.J. Fehoko, a defensive end from Hawaii.

Timpview's Bronson Kaufusi, a junior and the son of BYU defensive line coach Steve Kaufusi, has committed to BYU.
