Alabama is in position to potentially add a high-profile transfer to its wide receiver room.


Sources have told AL.com to keep an eye on the Crimson Tide as a possible landing spot for ex-Ohio State wide receiver Jameson Williams.


It seems like Williams, a former top recruit who started for the Buckeyes as a sophomore last season, could potentially make a final decision and announcement on a transfer destination as soon as the early part of this week.

If he couldn't make it there, Why would we want him here? It's not like our room is less competitive. Unless there is something else to this transfer that I don't know?

Saw this on the rant regarding the OSU dropout

Hank says we’re the Frontrunner to land Ohio State Transfer WR Jameson Williams.

Looks like Hank and Perroni the A&M mod both put in CBs for Williams to Bama. Some speculation, but nothing concrete in the Texas and Oklahoma parts of the internet that this may be a prelude to a future Luther Burden flip from OU who is visiting and/or was doing a self guided tour of Bama. Both are from St. Louis. Also coincidentally looks like Burden is transferring to Williams old high school Cardinal Ritter but that likely doesn't to mean anything.

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.

Its not about competition from what some of my buckeye friends have told me. I think it is more that he is unhappy in Columbus.

Why is he unhappy? Crack in the Ryan Day foundation or Urban's issues showing up?

Or maybe he finally realized the ladies just aren’t as beautiful up there. Takes some longer than others to figure out the value of these southern gals.

He did catch a 45 TD pass vs Clemson in the 1st round playoff game this past season

Have you shifted your focus to the class of 2022 and beyond? Well, Alabama head coach Nick Saban and staff haven’t. On Monday, the Crimson Tide added Ohio State wide receiver transfer Jameson Williams, a former Top100 recruit in the class of 2019 from St. Louis, as he committed to UA on his social media account. Williams joins a loaded wide receiver haul for UA this cycle, including five-star Jacorey Brooks, A-Day standout Agiye Hall, Florida product Christian Leary, and Texas star JoJo Earle.

“It’s Bama because I felt the want and need of my skill from Coach (Nick Saban) as he explained everything to me,” Williams told BamaOnLine. “And I also had a great relationship with Coach (Holmon) Wiggins from the previous years. He made it most definitely feel like a place that I could be.”

We're riding...again

Reading on the Rant one of the OSU posters said they didn't want him anyway.

Well, you can have her, I don't want her
She didn't love me anyway
She only wanted someone to play with
But all I wanted was love to stay.

Saban wants speed, he goes out and gets it!!!!

 

[bama alum]

Will he have to sit out this year?

 

[Tidestalker]

Kind of surprised we would add another WR...

But when you look at the other position depth charts, not really sure what is a place of need at this point! (Other than punter)

Do we have any more spots to fill? As noted previously, wouldn't surprise me to see a couple more guys look elsewhere here soon

Nope. 1 time transfer rule

You can never have enough skill position players. If they're all good, they'll all play. It may reduce some individual statistics, but that won't impact their draft potential. It's about the team, not the individual player.

 

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

I think he certainly fits what Saban is looking for re: speed.

And while it is a really small sample size, Williams averaged 17.1 YPC last year for OSU. That would have ranked 2nd on Bama's team behind Waddle.

Am I assuming To'oto is no longer coming? Funny as he may be headed to Ohio State per rumors.
