'13 PA ATH Delton Williams (MSU verbal)

  • "With Damion committing, it made it look even better for Michigan State," he said. "He's like a brother to me, I go right off of his butt every play, me and him going to the same college - living together, his mom and my mom are real close - things would go well if I were to go with him there."

    Once Williams visits Lincoln and sees what most consider to be the best facilities in all of college football, reeling him in to be a future Nebraska Husker will get a whole lot easier. GO BIG RED !

    He has been to PSU and been to MSU. MSU has what some have called the nicest in the Big Ten with their recent renovations.

    Then you have places like UM, which just completed a huge overhaul of training areas and the Big House itself.

    This sort of discussion should take place in the 2013 thread up top, I wish more posts like yours were put in that thread so we could have more discussion daily in one place. Mods should move your question there as I am curious as well then delete my post here please.

    I'm deleting the ones above this . .

    We don't have a "move post" feature. We can move threads from forum to forum and that's about it.

    Nitro, I like the topic, but it probably should be in the '13/'14 general discussion thread.

    Michigan State does not and will not run the 3-4 defense.

  • CBD, is it first come first served for the final safety spot between Delton and Antonio Allen? Or would the staff make room?

    This is going to be a tough call. The staff really likes both players. If the # of available scholarships weren't so tight they would probably take both.
    Allen is a prototype SS which the staff is looking for in this class for some reasons I won't disclose here.
    Williams projects to several positions at the next level; SS, LB, RB, etc.
    I think when all is said and done, it will come down to a "First Come, First Served" situation.

    I thought Williams was supposed to be an H back if he were to come here.

    MSU is recruiting him as a defensive athlete; S, LB.
    If he were to play offense, he is much more suited to be a RB than an H-Back. Way too fast, strong, nifty and elusive in the open field to waste those talents @ H-Back.
    That is why he is somewhat enamored with PSU since they told him he could play RB.

    Let him play both ways like the Stanford player who played LB and FB. Scored a TD both ways in one game. To have a guy like that at H-back would be awesome, but agree with CBD that it should not be a full-time gig.

    He would have a bunch of new brothers. That's just the way it is around here. And yes... things would go (very) well.

    If he says yes to LB, would MSU still want Antonio Allen? Both would be amazing

    Even with rain in the forecast on Saturday afternoon, a number of recruits were able to make the trip to Happy Valley for the Nittany Lions' annual Blue-White spring scrimmage. Take a look at who made the trip in our Recruits at the Game Photo Gallery.

    Reports are Delton will be on campus for the G&W game with teammate Damion Terry.

    Some positive chatter out there as well. I like where the good guys stand.

    The fact that he skipped Penn State's game and is coming to ours...and he's FROM Pennsylvania?

    Feel very good about it.

  • So Delton coming with Terry to spring game. Allen just off the board, could the staff feel good about Delton here?

    SpartanGA

  • Seems kind of doubtful right now that Williams will commit this weekend.
    Hope his MSU visit wows him and he pulls the trigger. Not so much pressure on him to commit now since Allen pledged to Ole Miss.

    CoachedByDuffy

  • Look guys, the kid will commit to us, just give him a little time to enjoy his process. He wants to play with Terry and this has been his dream. More importantly, he took interest in State before Terry and love State.

    CoolTarnue

  • I think it looks good but until Delton makes the decision we're all waited with baited breath. Would be great to pick him up, I think.

  • I would love Williams to head up to the press box during the GW game, grab the mike, and tell everyone he is a Spartan.

    That would be pretty cool.

    On the MSU site it says kids in grades 8-12 aren't allowed in the pressbox during the spring game, even if they purchase tickets. probably a recruiting violation. maybe its not the same for him because he wont be paying the $100 pressbox ticket.
