Michael Brown was a shooting guard for Syracuse for two seasons. Brown came to Syracuse as one of the most highly rate players they had recruited, having been a McDonald's All-American.

Brown started almost every game his freshman season, and demonstrated an excellent perimeter shot. He averaged 8.4 points a game. Brown's game was almost exclusively on the perimeter; he rarely drove to the basket, and was not a strong defensive player. Brown did play well enough to make the Big East All Rookie Team.

Brown would be bumped to a reserve player his sophomore season, as coach Jim Boeheim moved Raf Addison to the shooting guard position, and inserted Howard Triche at starting forward. Brown was unhappy with his playing time and not starting, and would quit the team January 13th.

Brown would transfer to Clemson University. He would average 8.8 points per game his junior year at Clemson, playing in 27 games and making 44.7% of this three point shots. Brown would be suspended from the Clemson team his senior year for unlawful use of telephones at the school.[1]
