NORMAN, Okla. -- Marquise Brown remembers the moment he realized he was faster than anyone else. He was only 6 years old, playing quarterback in pee wee football.
"My hands were kind of small, so I used to drop the snap," he said. "But I would just pick it up and outrun everybody."
Brown has been outrunning the opposition ever since.
Nicknamed "Hollywood" because of his Florida hometown of the same name and his propensity for dazzling downfield grabs, Brown might very well be the fastest player at any position in this year's NFL draft. The Oklahoma All-American led college football with 11 catches of 40 yards or more last year and produced consecutive 1,000-yard receiving seasons starring as the go-to playmaker for Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray, respectively, as they won consecutive Heisman Trophies.
That spectacular speed is the primary reason that Brown, even with a slight 5-foot-9, 166-pound frame, projects to be a mid-to-possibly-high first-round pick in the upcoming draft.
"His speed is good on any football field, in any league, anywhere," said Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley. "It's a game-changer and people recognize that."
Despite being the cousin of Oakland Raiders star wideout Antonio Brown, it wasn't always obvious that Hollywood was destined for stardom.
Marquise Brown was born 5 pounds, 6 ounces and two weeks early in a delivery so tumultuous that his mother was in and out of the hospital for years. He remained uniquely small as a kid, so small that his pee wee coaches initially were too afraid to play him for fear of him getting seriously injured.
Little did they know, nobody else would be fast enough to touch him.
"Once he got the ball in his hands, it was over," said his mother, Shannon James. "He was really tiny, always smaller than everyone else. But he moved like lightning once he got that ball. He never stopped from there."
Even with a few roadblocks in his way.
He created cone drills on his own to hone his speed for an entire year when no scholarships came after high school. He operated a roller coaster appropriately named "Full Throttle" to help make ends meet while in junior college. And he arrived at Oklahoma weighing an unbelievably light 144 pounds.
"I've learned to appreciate everything," he said. "I'm living in the moment, just having fun."
Brown's overwhelming speed propelled him to a standout career for Chaminade-Madonna College Preparatory in Hollywood, Florida. But he was a late qualifier and possessed nothing close to prototypical size for a receiver. Brown exited high school without any FBS scholarship offers.
Not ready to give up on football, Brown would drag cones to a field near his house almost daily to improve the quickness of his cuts and breaks while researching the idea of going to junior college. At the same time, the College of the Canyons in Santa Clarita, California, was recruiting a friend of Brown's, and that friend told Canyons coach Ted Iacenda they ought to be recruiting Brown, too.
"There are a lot of kids from Florida out this way, because Florida doesn't have juco football," Iacenda told ESPN in a previous interview. "We wanted Marquise, but his mom was not sure about sending him all the way to California."
After a year, though, his mom finally relented. And so, Brown traveled all the way from one Hollywood to another. With no place to live, he moved into an apartment he shared with a family and another roommate. With no scholarship money -- California junior colleges don't offer athletic scholarships -- Brown got a job at Six Flags Magic Mountain, which tasked him with operating a 160-foot, looping roller coaster that hit 70 mph. With no mode of transportation, Brown often had to walk an hour each way. Sometimes, he would even show up to the Canyons' locker room still wearing his Six Flags uniform.
"It was pretty tough," Brown said. "But it taught me how to work hard. Really hard."
Though Brown weighed only 139 pounds at the time, the games were the easy part. And questions about him being able to withstand the physical punishment were quickly doused because, well, nobody could get a hand on him, much less a shoulder pad.
"That first game, I was like, 'Wow, this kid is ridiculous,'" Iacenda said. "He took a little screen pass and made four people look absolutely silly on a play that should've gone for a 2-yard loss.
"It was like, "Oh, my goodness, this kid is something special.'"
It didn't take long for Riley to discover the same.
The most immediate compelling storyline surrounding the Sooners in the spring of 2017 wasn't whether Mayfield could capture the Heisman after coming up short as a finalist the year before. It wasn't about whether Oklahoma could finally fix its beleaguered defense, either. Instead, the focus quickly shifted to this no-name, 140-pound junior-college transfer whom Riley signed to replace outgoing Biletnikoff winner Dede Westbrook. Wasn't Riley concerned Brown would be too small?
"Well, I was [too] until I saw him run," Riley said when Brown first arrived at Oklahoma. "Then I was good."
The rest of the Big 12 would soon discover what Riley already knew.
Later that season at Oklahoma State, Mayfield lofted a go-route pass down the sideline to Brown, who sailed past the opposing defensive back with ease for a touchdown. Fox play-by-play announcer Gus Johnson, who had given the Hollywood native his nickname, lost control: "Hollywood! Touchdown! Sooners! 77 yards! Who is this kid?!" Brown wound up setting a school record with 265 receiving yards that game, including another long touchdown, this one covering 84 yards. From then on, the moniker stuck.
Hollywood finished his first season with the Sooners racking up 1,095 yards and 7 touchdowns on 57 receptions. Last season playing with Murray, he became a first-team All-American, catching 75 passes for 1,318 yards and 10 touchdowns. In the regular-season finale at West Virginia, a win that clinched Oklahoma's spot in the Big 12 championship game, Brown nearly broke his own record with 243 yards receiving.
"It's pretty fun knowing I can run faster than this guy, that guy," Brown said. "You can toy with them a little bit. It's pretty fun."
Among those cheering on Brown from the Oklahoma sideline in Morgantown, West Virginia, was Antonio Brown, who then was still a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Hollywood speaks with his cousin almost daily and works out with him on occasion.
"He wants me to be better than him," Marquise Brown said during the combine. "So that's what I'm aiming to do."
Antonio Brown has been a valuable resource for Hollywood as he prepares for the draft and playing in the NFL. Antonio also has encouraged him as he works back from a Lisfranc left foot injury he suffered in the Big 12 championship game against Texas. On Jan. 8, just over a week after Oklahoma's loss to Alabama in the College Football Playoff Semifinal at the Capital One Orange Bowl, Brown underwent surgery, performed by Dr. Robert Anderson.
Other NFL receivers, including Kansas City's Sammy Watkins and Houston's Corey Davis, have overcome similar injuries. Brown got the protective boot removed from his foot in late March, and he already has started running again. Though he's still expected to be ready for summer training camp, Brown wasn't able to run the 40-yard dash at the NFL scouting combine or Oklahoma's pro day -- something he'd been dreaming about for years.
"I always looked up to fast guys. Deion Sanders, I always heard the famous 40-yard dash story," he said, referring to Sanders famously bolting the combine through the tunnel in 1989 after turning in a 40 time of 4.27 seconds. Brown, who ran a time of 4.30 in the 40 last offseason at Oklahoma, had targeted Cincinnati Bengals WR John Ross' 4.22 mark at the 2017 combine.
"It's been pretty tough. Since I can remember, I always dreamed of running that 40-yard dash at the combine. I told myself all year, 'I'm gonna break that John Ross record,' but I didn't get a chance to.
"I hope the scouts see my speed on tape. But hopefully, one day, I'm gonna get [the 40] on film -- I gotta run it."
Brown's imminent arrival to the NFL dovetails at a time in which speed from the receiver position has never been more paramount. Ever since DeSean Jackson torched the NFL as a 5-foot-9, 170-pound rookie with the Philadelphia Eagles a decade ago, franchises have coveted that top-end speed, regardless of size.
"I give credit to the guys before me for paving the way," Brown said. "You [no longer] have to be big and strong -- you can just be fast, quick."
That doesn't mean Brown will be relegated to operating exclusively out of the slot. In fact, 57 percent of Brown's receiving yards at Oklahoma last season came while lining up from the outside. That is yet another reason he figures to be a surefire first-round selection.
"I'll get utilized wherever, but I'll let the film speak for itself. I played outside, I played inside -- it's nothing new. I feel I can play both pretty well," said Brown, who is only an inch shorter -- with hopes of eventually being just a few pounds lighter -- than cousin Antonio, who lines up at both spots on a regular basis.
"After I made a name for myself, people didn't really press me that much. I know in the NFL, you're gonna get press coverage a lot, and I'm going to be ready for it."
Above all, Brown is ready to run.

Owner of Shasta Co. marijuana farm fined $297K for fouling creek
First for project charged with reducing negative impact of grows
Updated: 4:32 PM PDT Jun 15, 2015
Yuba County is looking to implement a tougher marijuana ordinance that may not only affect medical marijuana users, but will likely take a huge toll on the county budget.
Water regulators in California have fined the owner of a former marijuana farm and an excavation company $297,400 for fouling a creek while preparing a piece of land in Shasta County for pot-growing.State Water Resources Control Board attorney Yvonne West said the fine announced Friday was the first to result from the work of a multi-agency pilot project charged with reducing the negative impact of marijuana cultivation on California's waterways.West says extensive grading work was done without permits or erosion-control measures on the property about 20 miles west of Redding to make room for level planting areas and a road, causing sediment to flow into the creek when it rained.Officials learned about the farm from Shasta County sheriff's deputies who raided the site in October and destroyed about 100 plants growing there.

A Batalha de Neerwinden, travada a 18 de Março de 1793, nos Países Baixos Austríacos, opôs um exército austríaco (reforçado com alguns batalhões holandeses) sob comando do Príncipe Josias de Coburg, ao exército da França revolucionária, sob o comando do General Dumouriez. A batalha resultou numa vitória austríaca que permitiu passar à ofensiva e expulsar os Franceses (temporariamente) dos Países Baixos.

Antecedentes

Após as batalhas de Valmy (20 de Setembro de 1792) e de Jemappes (6 de Novembro de 1792), os Franceses invadiram os Países Baixos Austríacos que ocuparam sem dificuldade. No ano seguinte, após a execução de Luís XVI (21 de Janeiro de 1793), o governo francês não se iludiu relativamente a uma reacção das potências europeias e decidiu antecipar-se tomando a iniciativa. O General Dumouriez, comandante do Exército do Norte, recebeu ordens para marchar sobre as Províncias Unidas. Inicialmente esta invasão correu bem. Foram atacadas e capturadas algumas fortalezas perto da costa e o General Miranda iniciou o cerco de Maastricht. No entanto, um exército austríaco sob o comando do Príncipe de Saxe-Coburg lançou um contra-ataque e derrotou os Franceses em Aldenhoven (1 de Março) e em Aix-la-Chapelle (2 de Março), salvando Maastricht. Dumouriez deixou as suas forças a Norte, nas Províncias Unidas, e dirigiu-se para a Bélgica onde assumiu o comando do Exército das Ardenas (Louvan, 13 de Março).

Ao assumir o comando do Exército das Ardenas, temendo que os Austríacos recebessem mais reforços, Dumouriez decidiu lançar de imediato uma operação ofensiva. Após uma série de pequenos combates ao longo da estrada entre Liège e Bruxelas, Saxe-Coburg ocupou uma posição defensiva com o centro à volta da vila de Neerwinden.

O campo de batalha

Neerwinden é uma vila na província belga de Liège. É actualmente parte do município de Landen. O terreno é muito plano. Os pontos mais elevados de onde se pode visualizar o campo de batalha são, na realidade, elevações muito suaves, poucos metros acima do terreno circundante. O principal curso de água na região é o Kleine Gete, rio que nasce em Ramillies e é afluente do Grote Gete.  O rio passa a Oeste de Neerwinden, a uma distância de aproximadamente 5 Km. Entre Neerwinden e Oberwinden, mais a Sul, o terreno é ligeiramente mais elevado, formando a colina de Mittelwinden.

As forças em presença

As forças francesas

As forças francesas presentes na batalha pertenciam ao Exército das Ardenas. Este exército tinha sido criado por decreto da Convenção  e foi formado com forças retiradas ao Exército do Norte. O comandante deste último exército era o General Dumouriez que assumiu o comando do Exército das Ardenas entre 11 de Março e 4 de Abril, data em que desertou para o campo austríaco.

Não se conhecem com exactidão os efectivos franceses. Sabe-se que se situavam entre os 40 mil e os 45 mil homens. As forças estavam organizadas da seguinte forma:

 Guarda avançada, sob comando do General de Divisão La Marche, com cerca de 4 mil homens de infantaria e mil de cavalaria;
 Ala direita, com cerca de 10 mil homens, sendo mil de cavalaria, sob comando dos generais Valence, Neuilly, Veneur e Dampiérre;
 Centro, sob comando do General Égalité, como era conhecido o duque de Chartres, com cerca de 8 mil homens sendo mil de cavalaria;
 Ala esquerda, sob comando do General Miranda, com 16 mil homens, sendo 2 mil de cavalaria.

As forças austríacas

As forças austríacas encontravam-se sob o comando do Príncipe Josias de Coburg e eram constituídas por cerca de 43 mil homens. Entre estas forças encontravam-se seis batalhões de infantaria das Províncias Unidas.

A batalha

O dispositivo austríaco

As forças austríacas foram colocadas numa linha virada para ocidente, com o seu flanco direito sobre a estrada que ligava Tirlemont (a actual Tienen) a Maastricht e o flanco esquerdo na região de Oberwinden. No centro do dispositivo ficava a povoação de Neerwinden. A esquerda deste dispositivo encontrava-se sob comando do Arquiduque Calos enquanto a direita era comandada por Charles Joseph de Croix, conde de Clerfait.

O plano francês

Dumouriez assumiu que os Austríacos eram mais fortes na sua ala direita, onde defendiam a sua linha de comunicações. Partindo desta suposição, decidiu atacar em força a esquerda austríaca.

O exército francês foi dividido em oito colunas. À direita, as três primeiras colunas, sob comando do General Valence, iriam flanquear Oberwinden, atacar a vila e a colina de Mittelwinden. Ao centro, o duque de Chartres, com duas colunas, iria atacar Neerwinden. À esquerda, o General Miranda, com três colunas, teria de capturar Leau, e apoderar-se da estrada Tirlemont – Maastricht.

A batalha

Na direita francesa, pelas 07h00, as tropas atravessaram de surpresa o rio Kleine Gete e atacaram. No entanto, Valence não conseguiu capturar Mittelwinden antes do meio dia. Neerwinden foi capturada e perdida duas vezes. De igual forma, Oberwinden foi capturada pelas tropas francesas para depois ser recapturada por Clairfait. As tropas francesas, perante os ataques da cavalaria austríaca, ainda foram obrigadas a ceder outras áreas que já tinham ocupado. Dumouriez fez avançar todas as suas forças da ala direita mas sem obter sucesso. Ao fim do dia, a ala esquerda austríaca encontrava-se mais ou menos nas mesmas posições que ocupava no início dos combates.

Na ala esquerda francesa, o General Miranda começou por conquistar a vila de Doormaal com a sua primeira coluna mas as suas forças foram obrigadas a abandonar as posições conquistadas devido a uma série de contra-ataques efectuados pelas tropas austríacas. A segunda coluna não conseguiu penetrar as posições inimigas e a terceira coluna, que atacou Léau, fracassou igualmente. As suas forças viram-se obrigadas a recuar e a atravessaram novamente o Kleine Gete para depois se dirigirem para Tirlemont.

Para ficarmos com uma ideia da violência dos combates, podemos recorrer a uma carta do General Miranda, datada de 21 de Março, em que ele conta que sofreu cerca de 2 mil mortos e feridos, entre eles um oficial general e trinta outros oficiais. Ao todo, os Franceses perderam cerca de 4 mil homens, mortos ou feridos, incluindo cinco generais, mil desaparecidos ou capturados e 30 bocas de fogo de artilharia. Os Austríacos, por seu lado, tiveram entre mortos, feridos e desaparecidos, 93 oficiais e  praças. Também perderam um elevado número (779) de cavalos. Após esta batalha, cerca de 6 mil Franceses desertaram para o lado austríaco.

Consequências

A conduta de Dumouriez foi muito criticada. A 21 de Março sofreu mais uma derrota num combate sem grande importância. Depois disso entrou em negociações com os Austríacos. Com isso conseguiu retirar o seu exército para ocidente de Bruxelas sem ser molestado e desta forma preservou as suas tropas. No entanto viviam-se tempos agitados e este recuo despoletou ainda mais críticas por parte das forças radicais em Paris. Sentindo que não podia contar com o apoio dos seus homens, Dumouriez desertou para o campo austríaco a 5 de Abril.
