What seemed like a normal day Thursday, February 9th, turned into one of the most exciting recruiting days in recent memory. It started with 2018 RB Lorenzo Lingard committing to Miami, but right when we thought it was all over, Lingard's cousin — 2020 DB Avantae Williams committed to Miami
“I’ve been wanting to do it for sometime,” said Williams. “I almost committed when I got the offer, at Paradise Camp and the FSU game. When I saw Lo commit, I told myself…. What am i waiting for.”
On the 7v7 circuit this weekend in Orlando, Williams plays for the elite Pro Impact team, but you would expect Avantae who’s 15 years old to play for the 15u team right?
“It’s funny because I'm 15 and i’m playing on the varsity roster.” Williams said “It’s fun playing with all of the older guys and being the only young savage.”
This took place after the interview when I introduced Avantae to Josh Jobe, DJ Ivey and a special FaceTime call he took
“They’re all savages,” said Williams. “I love that savage mentally that Miami has.”
“Trajan Bandy man, I look up to him a lot.” — “Everyone compares my love for Miami to his love and they compare my game to Sean Taylor.”
With Avantae being three years away from stepping foot in a college campus, he has one school in particular after him
“Florida is after me hard and i just took a visit there.” said Williams “Honestly Gainesville is so boring, there’s really nothing for me up there. I wanted to leave so bad.”
