Brian Plummer (American football)

Brian Plummer is an American football player.

Early life and education

Plummer was raised in Carroll County, Maryland and attended South Carroll High School from 2012-2016. He played football, baseball and basketball his freshman year, giving him special recognition as a tri sport athlete. His junior year he and the rest of the offensive line helped block for Chris Gavin, who broke the county's all-time single-season rushing record.[1] He was also on the track and field team his senior year of high school, getting first place in 12-lb shot put at the county championship.[2] He made the all-county teams for both football and track his senior year.

University of Maryland

Although he graduated with less than desirable grades, he was offered a scholarship by Randy Edsall[3] to play for the Terrapins. Despite the replacement of Edsall with University of Michigan defensive coordinator D. J. Durkin,[4] Plummer was still offered the scholarship. At the time of his recruitment he was ranked the 27th best football player in the state of Maryland.[5] After the death of teammate Jordan McNair, Plummer left the team and graduated in the winter of 2019.[6].

gollark: Seems pretty evil, I guess.
