'16 FL WR Latrell Williams (UT signee 2/3/16)

I'd be willing to be that if Latrell commits, it's under some "shirt" or preferred walk-on status.

Wrong

He has offers from Miami and Virginia Tech there won't be any kind of walk-on for him. His offers have to be legit as well or they wouldn't bring him in this late in the game. He could be the prototype slot guy for our offense.

Not a smart bet, IMO.

How is this kid not rated? He's fast as hell

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Penn State about to offer also. This happens every yr. Kids start to blow up towards the end after their senior season. Hes talented for sure.

 

[VoltillweFall]

Slot all day he's a take!! Get em coach Scott!!

 

[LittleVol]

Okay now I see his real speed. He's a long strider. Very similar to Michael Thomas for the Buckeyes. That's why his 40 isn't super fast. He's very fast on the top end though.

He gets up to speed very quickly. He's quick. 4.6 is not slow and 40 times are very overrated.

He's a 4.5 with the ball in his hands.

Don't listen to this troll. I just watched his highlights. Nice.

Yep, definitely.

I remember when Dooley offered an under the radar kid named Eddie Jackson. Everyone was pissed. Then daily, offer after offer rolls in, and the guy is now All-SEC at Alabama. So many examples of this.

You're something like a prophet...

Call me crazy, but I'd offer the MVP of our Summer camp.

Think of the reaction Dooley would get if this guy is a beast in 3 years, and we didn't offer after he performed right under our coach's nose.

 

[PA Vol]

Man that thread is hilarious.

 

[etcolton]

Give him this man an offer, and if mecole wants in give him a blue shirt.

Like Nate Johnson I'd expect Williams to laugh at a blue shirt offer.

wouldnt blame him.

Sometimes you could talk a kid like Johnson into it. With him being instate if he can get all the financial aid available ( depending on family's financials) he can get school paid for and 4 to 6k in his pocket for living expenses. That can't happen with an out of state kid.

esp when he can go play in another major conference on a full ride.

 

[Nashvegas31]

I only watched a few plays of highlights and was comfortable with adding him. We need slot WRs and he attacked the ball in the air. We don't have many that do that

I'm sure Kyle Oliver would tell anyone who would listen that taking a blue shirt offer is risky at best.

And Jashon Robertson and Joe Young would say BOFFO!

 

[chaseasl]

Did Kyle also tell everybody that weed and and trying to stay on the team don't mix.

 

[Volunteer_Kirby]

We're not taking a blue shirt this year according to P. Fort and Hubbs. 2017 should be Butch's best class to date and we need need all the scholarships we can spare because it's going to be a very talent-heavy class from top to bottom.

 

[Eugene Hetalia]

I always struggle looking to see the speed in all recruits film. hard to compare for me. Did notice he likes to fight for "Dirty Yards". has great effort & High points the ball well.

Especially if you plan on rolling blunts the second you get on campus

Admittedly I had not seen the weed talk as why Oliver was not on the team if it's true. Had he been on scholarship, he may have got the typical 12 strikes(positive tests) and you're out.
