‘23 LA CB Carl Williams IV

[VolByLaw]

Carl Williams IV, 2023 Cornerback - Rivals.com
Carl Williams - Southern University Lab School - CB

We wouldn’t rule out Tennessee taking another corner. They have three but we could see them taking a fourth with Aaron Gates who is committed to Florida and Carl Williams who is committed to Baylor and from the New Orleans area as possible options. Williams knows Jordan Matthews quite well and has interest in Rocky Top.

Alphonzo Smith is who he plays like. Kid from Pahokee FL that played at Wake Forest and then Denver Broncos.

This kid has some nasty in his game. A rare quality in a true cover corner. Bring him on.

He seems to be the only kid Dave Aranda pulled from Louisiana.
All the other kids are Texas kids, and all the other CBs he has committed look pretty stout to!
I trust his evaluations a great deal!

Like you said. This kid has some bite!!

Edit: no disrespect to our current committed guys. I'm thrilled with our CB commitments. I just hope we add this kid too...

10.49 100 meter

When I first starting coaching in the traveling football league in the Atlanta area, I drafted the fastest play available with every choice. We won the Atlanta league. Speed kills and covers up some mistakes.

What team did you coach and what years?

and doing pretty darned well it seems.
There's actually really good ILB down there that I wish they would go after.
Even though Telander and Smith are a pretty solid duo.

Oh my. If the 5'11" is legit with that kind of speed then pull him on in.

It isn't easy to get me excited over recruiting any more. I've just witnessed excitement turn into reality with too many players and classes over the years. But this DB class is really starting to look good. The quality looks good and the depth.

He knows where the talent is. Reppin the 225 baby.

Tucker Lions playing at Fitzgerald Field in the late 1960s and early 1980s.

I have a very hard time believing the 10.49 is legit, or at least not wind-aided.

Here's the rest of the blurb about his 100 meter times from 247: Ran 100-meter times of 10.49, 11.26, 11.39, and 11.57 as a junior in Spring 2022. Ran the third leg of Southern Lab's Louisiana 1A state champion 4x100 relay and third leg of the bronze-winning 4x200 relay.

That's way too big a spectrum (from 10.49 to 11.57) in one track season to not question the 10.49, when all of the other times are low to mid 11s.

Yea something is off, there’s no amount of wind that’s taken off 1 second in track.

That blurb about his time comes from a brief description on 247. The times didn't seem consistent. Like a whole second faster between runs haha. So I thought it was a typo maybe it was 10.99?

Nope. It is an official time via the Louisiana State athletics and on Athletic.net.
The 10.49 is legit. And honestly once you see his film, you do believe he is that fast.

I like all 3 of our CBs. And Matthews and Gibson have better offers than this kid. But it's not odd at all that our staff is trying to add him. This guy is a true island CB. Speed. Ups! Hands and super physical. Pacman Jones, Jenoris Jenkins physical.

Not going to get into star ranking about him, but of course it's way off. And the staff must have just now got wind of him? The timing of the offer is odd, but once you see him, you understand the offer regardless of who we have committed.

 

[LittleVol]

About what?

About them going after more CBs.
You said WE NEED MORE CBs.
The staff agrees.

And this dude is better than then ones we have imo.

Of course I know why you asked "About what?". You're absolutely ridiculous lol.
All you see is a 3 star.

Nope. It's legit.

I'm guessing he was just getting into a form until he laid it all on the line for the big track meet.

I didn't think we would sign 7 DB's, but if you look at our roster and the age of the DB's we have, it makes sense to sign 4 corners. I just figured they'd go the JUCO or portal route. With that being said, this kid's skill set fits perfectly with what they want to do on defense. Quality depth on defense will be what decides if this team is good or great in the future.

It makes you wonder if it was a typo and should have been 11.49.
