Brown was named to the College Football All-America Team twice and won the Heisman Trophy in 1987, becoming the first wide receiver to do so. Woodrow Wilson High School is one of just two public high schools with two Heisman Trophy winners as of 2015. When Brown received his diploma, he had already locked up a spot on Alabama's football roster for good. He was also drafted by the Oakland Raiders after graduating from college. However, he never played a game for them because he was involved in several off-the-field incidents that resulted in him being suspended by the NFL multiple times. He last played in 2018 but remains one of their highest paid players today. Brown finished his college career with 1,413 receiving yards, which is the third most in Florida State history. He also has 19 receptions of 30 or more yards and three touchdowns within that time frame. In 2015, Brown was selected to the National Football Foundation's College Football Hall of Fame. He is only the second player from Florida State to make it into the hall, the other being Ernie Davis who played during the 1940s. Antonio's brother, Jesus Brown, was also considered for the honor but didn't make the cut-off date. They are not only the only two Floridians to have done so, but they're also the only brothers to have both been inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame.
