Not breaking news here, but it's pretty damn hard to know how he would fit in or fill roles in Crimson until everything unfolds. The truth is - There are lots of really good players who don't fit well in certain situations/programs... And there can be certain players who over produce due to situations/programs. It can vary from program to program and even year to year. Sometimes a guy just has bad luck with injuries... Sometimes a guy has bad luck with talent ahead of him... Or around him... for whatever reason it just didn't go his way. And on the other hand maybe a guy just isn't doing what he needs to do on the field, off the field, or a combination of both and he puts themself behind the 8 ball. Regardless - Every situation is different!!
This dude could come to Bama and fit in perfectly as a #1 or #2. He could come to Bama and get stuck behind one or two of these young cats who just emerges and takes over a huge role... They're all super talented. ELITE talent.
I will say that a guy like Williams is pretty rare though, where he was so little used at tOSU and comes to Alabama and absolutely dominates! Just a combo of tOSU having studs and likely him not pleasing the coaches in some way. tOSU was in the championship game the year he transferred... It's not like him not playing held them back, they were terrific. Ironically Burton transferring has some of the same similarities... I just think Williams was an exception, and do not expect Burton to be anywhere near that level of difference making... But this could also be his perfect fit, and he becomes an important piece to an offense that is clearly lacking experience at WR!
