Tim Williams seemed intent on leaving the state one way or the other. If Alabama hadn't lost DeMarcus Walker, he's likely headed to Miami.

First off, LSU cooled on him after he was basically dead set on going out of state. Nothing LSU can do about that. Second of all, he is an undersized DE. He will more than likely be an OLB for Bama. While getting him would be nice, it wasn't truely a need. Look at the d-linemen we have committed this year.

I don't know but I do know that for whatever reason, the relationship between TW and the LSU coaching staff has been very strained for quite some time. Anyone who follows LSU recruiting even a little will tell you that.

So, I guess he's taking the Mathew Thomas spot?

Something weird definitely went on a couple months back, but his recruitment quickly picked up again from LSU's end. Won't stop half of the idiots from talking about how we pulled his scholarship though

This is I think the one time LSU fans can a actually say the staff didnt want him with a straight face ... he may be talented but for some reason our coaches left this one alone months ago. Hope he does well just not against us ...
Well, Miles' AND Krags' sons play with this kid and have seen him a lot. Cooled on him after early interest.
Soooooo, I guess he just didn't fit our style or something. Not to say he won't be a good fit for Bama.

Gotcha. I know Burton Burns has been recruiting him since his Freshman year at the other HS he went to in BR.

Dude played high school ball on the campus of LSU. No way Les Miles can let this kid get away like that.

Because Bama signed him

Was he very high on Bamas board? I thought Bama cooled on him quite a bit.

Why?

I'm honestly not sure why. It baffles me because from what I've heard and seen he wanted to come to LSU. LSU backed way off for whatever reason. Then he was a definite to go to Miami. I suppose the upcoming sanctions had something to do with him passing on Miami. Needless to say, I like the kid and a good get for Bama IMO

ding ding ding.
he never was going to LSU. He wanted out of LA. He was high on Bama, FSU and Miami. Bama lost a recruit and now he's there. So...
Regardless, I think WIlliams will have a better career in Bamas system anyways.

Hopefully Bama will be hooking his family and child up some nice living accomadations, internships, jobs, etc.
Hate to see a young father leave his child.

Well, you could start by going to the LSU Recruiting board and seeing what is going on there. Thanks for being an awesome Tiger fan though.

Typical response.
Get a little more creative with your jealousy and sad.
You're not very good at this.
