Evaluation:

Louisville has a lot of holes to fill throughout the roster, with cornerback being a key spot. Brunson is a player with better offers than his recruiting ranking, which shows up on his Hudl. He plays with good aggression as a tackler, while showing off impressive skills in press coverage. His high school put him on an island a lot, and he shows up ready for the task throughout his highlights. His speed is a real asset as he has no issues running with receivers down the field. He also has good stop-start ability to match receivers when they make cuts in their routes.

Brunson will need to add bulk once he gets on campus so that he can maximize his skills in press coverage. He can reroute players in high school because of his length and overall physical profile, but at 6-2/180, he will struggle to control receivers at the line of scrimmage in college. Developing his body will be key, as he has the speed and the coverage technique that you like to see from a prospect.
