'22 GA RB Justin Williams (Cal)

It’s not a secret at this point. It’s been alluded to now by VQ/247 as well. Even Doug Matthews mentioned Sunday he has heard rumblings about Evans not being back. He has a girl he needs to provide for so I guess he thinks he will take his chances

He's betting on himself with extremely limited production on tape for scouts to evaluate while playing a position that is greatly devalued outside of the very few elite. Risky proposition.

This all the way.

The must get is said every year.

Yeah except this kid looks and plays the part.

Completely agree. He would be much better off trying to get an NIL and profiting a little off that while building his resume.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Certainly seems so. But I don’t know if I would classify him as a must get.

 

[Batman1948]

Love Tiyon but the facts here are that he has basically no tape, been hurt and has pretty much never played in a big game but hes going pro? i think it helps him greatly to come back.

It's been said that he's not going to class. I doubt the decision to come back will be made by him. In other words, he didn't come to UT to play school

Do kids actually have to go to class these days? Serious question. Can they go via Zoom and say they're trying to avoid getting sick?

Well either way you have to do the assignments.

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

Most kids do, I hate the bad rap many give players.Sure there are some that don’t take advantage but many many do and they get ignored. You only hear about the ones failing or not going to class. GBO

NC disagrees.

 

[BigOrangeGoose]

CB to the VOLS from Rusty Mansell!

 

[sjt18]

I have no info as to whether he is or isn't.

I work/have worked with many student athletes, and the vast majority of them are very good kids. Very respectful and, in most cases, excellent students.

 

[sjt18]

Just told me he is 6-0 and 208

Can you break down his strengths and areas for improvement? Highlight videos can be deceptive but he looked to have pretty good size and speed. Can you speak to vision, cutting ability, acceleration, etc?

Jesus, really? I mean Travis Henry could barely read or write and he managed to go to class. And before anyone says it, I am being serious.

 

[Batman1948]

Basilio wrote about it in one of his blogs. He said the dude was only gonna be here for one year so I guess class wasn't a priority for him.

I had a class with Dale Carter…… he never stepped foot inside of that class but was still eligible….. those were the good ole days.

Privileged Athletes.

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

Most athletes go to class and pass. GBO!

I mean they have personal tutors for crying out loud

 

[peaygolf]

100%
If any athlete can’t pass in college, they shouldn’t have ever been accepted into said university in the first place......

 

[volbeast33]

Privileged Athletes.

Yep….. Tim Worley has an accounting degree from Georgia and stated that he never attended the first class….. Dexter Manley couldn’t read or write and stayed eligible at Oklahoma State.

I know you are. I had a political science class with him. He showed up on test days and didn’t try to hide the fact he was looking at other people’s papers for answers. The professor pretended not to notice.

If he couldn’t read or write, what good did it do to look?
