2018 Alabama commit talks Canes

Feb 13, 2017

After recently committing to Alabama last month, 2018 ATH Xavier Williams says he's open to every school, but there's one school that's pushing Alabama to the test -- the University of Miami.

"I'm still 100% committed to Alabama," says Williams. "Miami is my #2 right now and they're pushing for me really hard."

Williams attends Chaminade-Madonna HS, a school that hasn't sent a player to Miami since Jordan Futch in 2008.

"I don't really focus on that," Williams said. "I really like Miami, it's just that I had a better relationship with Alabama and they had a better relationship with my family and you know sometimes you just have to solidify a position with them."

With Williams only being a junior, his recruitment has a long way to go.

"Miami still has a chance of course," said Willams "Recruiting has picked up actually since I committed to Alabama."

"Miami is home, they're making more of a priority, which they did before, they're just turning it up a notch."

Williams will be visiting Miami next week for Junior Day, he also mentioned that he might fly out to Alabama for their Junior Day after the Nike Opening.

Wife: "That's sweet."
Husband: "If a finer chick wants me to smash I'm divorcing you though. Don't get comfortable."

"Maybe in sickness, probably in health, until death do us part, or you get a little pudgy, we'll see."

To be honest, when he talks about the relationship bammer has with his family, it makes me realize it's going to be an uphill struggle.

I'm trying to figure out outside of Saban, who at Bama he has such a long standing relationship with. They just overhauled their entire staff.

Mario was his only relationship there. But Mario sold him on the school

Exactly. And I'm sure Sabag doesn't have much of a relationship with a 2018 WR at this stage.

Pretty sure his relationship was with Cristobag and Napier just like Harry Beudy's. The only remaining relationship for him with Alabaga is with the loot.

I already explained this to yall in another thread. They forced his hand & as long as we get the parents on board between Jr day & paradise he'll commit. He just confirmed all of that for yall.

I long for the day when South Florida blue-chippers quit feeling the need to "solidify their spot" in TusKKKaloosa. Time to start telling Alabaga to suck that crank.

Ambassador Lingard will help tremendously in this regard. He's going to prove to the followers and Alabaga hype beasts that it's cool for a super blue-chipper to stay home at UM. If UM is good for Ambassador Lingard it's good enough for everyone else.

Like I told y'all in another thread he acknowledged he made a mistake & was forced into it. His parents are coming to Junior day & paradise. Long as we sell them he's committing to us by paradise. This isn't a bags situation yet

If Hulkamania woudn't have **** near bankrupted Nick Denton I could see Deadspin paying a high profile kid to cooperate with them in getting 'Bama or some other SEC big spenders on video offering illegal benefits.

gatorsSUCK!

Yep. He gonna get a bag. You know how much a helicopter is per hour to operate. Nick ain't spending that green to show up and not hand a bag to his parents...that's the relationship. The man is anti social and a known grease ball though a good coach. But don't sell me on relationships w him or his now gone staff. It's green backs

No kidding! Alabama just signed five very highly-rated WRs in 2017. And they hardly pass the ball.

Edit - just looked at 247 - Alabama signed the #1 , #3 , and #5 rated WRs last year. I know kids like winning (and they win alot), but come on.

So the local team full of God fearing Christians and proven coaches needs to sell and convince his parents but they're cool with scumbag Sabag and TusKKKaloosa even after all the offensive coaches who were there last year are now somewhere else? South Florida parents keep winning.

Remember Richt was a UGA coach in 2016 not sure if Richt was on him as heavy as bama was during his time at UGA, I'm sure Saban and Alabama been on this kid for a long time , building that bond with him and his folks...

So when the bags do come into play you think he still commits to UM if we forge this realtionship with him and his parents?

Bagman is family.

So he says, so he demonstrates.

Bama is one of those schools that hammers on the kid to commit and then hammers them not to keep looking. As long as Bama is at the top or near the top, they won't change that approach. But more and more schools are finding that the kids and families are realizing that they can call the shots and there are a lot of programs that can get you to the league. Bama's days of bullying recruits are dwindling.

Rick was at UGA in 2016?

Sabag has no relationship with Williams. That's not how out of state WRs get recruited by defensive HCs. If it's legitimately a "relationships" thing then there's no way Alabaga can compete with us on a local guy especially seeing that all their offensive coaches left.
