'22 GA RB Justin Williams (Cal)

AUBURN |
Justin Williams has been to Auburn a number of times. But this weekend was special and it came down to the time he was able to spend with Cadillac Williams and the Tigers’ entire staff.

“The coaching staff,” said Williams of what stood out about his official visit. “I had a good time cutting up, laughing, showing me around the campus. The facilities were great, top notch. Just the way they have everything set up for you to be successful.”
Williams, rated a 4-star and No. 13 running back, spent much of his time with Cadillac, who was a star tailback at Auburn and the NFL before returning to AU as the running backs coach in 2019.
“He’s a great dude on and off the field,” said Williams. “Me and him went over some film of just what they run and how he coaches the backs. He does a great job. His relationship with his players is awesome. It’s good to see players that are able to come talk to their coach. The player-coach relationship is really important.”
Auburn already has a commitment from Damari Alston but would like to sign another running back in this class. Williams would be just fine coming in with Alston in the same class.
"Yea, I’m up for competition,” he said. “The competition is not an issue for me. Me and Damari, that’s my boy, you know what I’m saying. Great people are going to make you better. He’s a great back and I feel like I’m a great back too. So we’re only going to make each other better.”
Williams is down to three schools — Auburn, Tennessee and Georgia Tech. He’s got a final visit scheduled to Tennessee next weekend before announcing a decision on Signing Day, Dec. 15.
“I’ve got to go check out Tennessee to kinda see where everything is at, but Auburn is in a good spot with me,” said Williams. “They did a really good job on the OV. I had a good time. I’m going to have a tough decision to make.”
He has a good idea what to base his final decision on.
“Probably relationships and the place that is going to fit me best,” Williams said. “I’m going to go home after this last visit, weigh all my options, the pros and cons and go from there."

There aren’t a bigger set of homers in the business than the ones that work for Auburn and it’s not close
 
Not shocked or sweating the fact that he’s saying a bunch of positive Auburn stuff to Auburn beat writers.

If the CB’s start flipping, then I’ll worry.

But until then, he’s a Vol.
Yep. I didn't see anything but the standard post-visit positives.

FOUR-STAR RB READY TO VISIT VOLS AGAIN

Four-star running back Justin Williams, a former West Virginia commitment from East Paulding High School in Dallas, Ga., traveled to Auburn over the weekend for an official visit with the Tigers after he received an offer from them on Nov. 27. Williams was complimentary of Auburn after the visit and seemed to enjoy himself there, but Tennessee still is set to host him on his final official visit this weekend.

The Vols have been in good shape with the 6-foot, 205-pound Williams for weeks, and sources close to his recruitment still believe Tennessee has put itself in position to have a good chance of landing him next week as long as his official visit to Knoxville goes smoothly. The Vols still need to finish strong if they want to land him. But the odds appear to be in their favor at the moment.
