A standout at DeLand (FL) HS, Williams has the talent and size to be a nice player at Miami in the coming years. He’s the cousin of recently-committed 5-star RB Lorenzo Lingard, so there’s a family connection now between Williams and Miami.
Obviously being a 2020 recruit means Williams has only completed his freshman year of HS. But, Miami has taken commits from players this young before, so I have no problem with it.
While he has a ways to go in HS, you can check out Williams’ HUDL highlights below.
