Brown has a unique nick- name, 'Tig'. "It started from Winnie the Pooh," Brown said. "When I was a baby, I used to bounce around a lot, not even a year old on my mom's lap, and she started calling me Tigger the Tiger. As I got older, it started to stick with me, and I just like, 'You know what? Let's chop a couple of letters off, call me Tig. Everybody start call- ing me Tig and it's just been like my real name. It's been a substitute for my real name since I was a baby."
Brown teamed up with Chicago Bears S Jaquan Brisker in the sec- ondary at both Lackawanna Community College (Scranton, PA) and Penn State. "They brought about as much attention to Lacka- wanna College in a week that's probably ever happened in this school's history," Lackawanna head coach Mark Duda said after each came up with an interception in a 2021 win over Wisconsin. "Having them together, it was like poetry in motion watching them play off of each other," said Penn State defensive coordinator An- thony Poindexter. "You could tell they had played somewhere together. They just had this chemistry, man. They knew what the other was doing."
