Not sold on Emory Jones... I think he's going to be a bit of a project. With another year of Hurts though, and Tua on campus, that's probably about right... he won't sniff the field his freshman year... will be a hell of a force on the scout team though... going against Bama's #1 defense in practice is a good trial by fire.
I actually think tOSU might get the better end of this deal if they land Williams. Kentucky definitely would be getting the shaft. Williams could transform their offense IMO.

Jones looks like he has all the tools to me. Urban and Saban don't typically fight over scrub players. He's got good size, athletic and can run and has a cannon for an arm. At Bama he can redshirt and then learn for a year or two behind Hurts and Tua and be ready for the job by his RS Sophomore or Junior year. So it may be a perfect fit for both parties. Plus, stealing a QB from Urban is a beautiful thing. You know that just eats him up.

I dunno neither of these guys are likely going to have to play snaps for years if they go to OSU or Bama. OSU has Haskins/Burrow/Martell and Bama has Hurts/Tua for at least the next couple years. Plenty of time for Jones/Williams to get better and/or transfer. Who the heck knows what could happen
