TXaubie 566 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Link Auburn commit Tre Williams misses most of playoff game with concussion SARALAND, Alabama - Auburn football commitment Tre Williams was injured during Friday night's Class 5A playoff game and spent most of the contest standing on the St. Paul's sideline watching as the Saints' season ended in a 20-14 double-overtime loss to Saraland. Williams, an Auburn commitment, was hurt early in the third-round game while playing linebacker for the Saints. "He got hurt on the first series and had a grade-2 concussion," St. Paul's coach Steve Mask said. Although Williams was the Saints' sole representative for the midfield meeting with officials and Saraland's captains before the start of overtime, he was not healthy enough to play, Mask said. "His health is more important to us than a football game," Mask said. "We weren't going to take a chance putting him back out there. He's an outstanding football player and losing him hurt. But it wasn't all about him. "We've got to do what's best for the kid, and that's what we're going to do." Nice job by Coach Mask. He did the right thing. I hate to say it but there are high school coaches who would not have done the same thing in a playoff situation. My friends sons teammate was injured during a game last year. As he was limping on the sideline the coach goes out of his way to walk by the kid. He tells him to quit f'n limping. Turns out the kid tore ligaments in his foot completely off the bone. Good to hear that there are some coaches out there that care about the kids that are laying it all on the line for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCPeePants 229 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 As a freshman in HS and while repping with a senior, I broke my hand trying to block him. I was forced to finish the practice (even going into a 3-point stance at points, ouch). This crap happens all the time. Big up to that coach.

trout54 55 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 It's the new "cool" thing. It makes them look "chill". It's like they are tryin to portray that they aren't taking anything too seriously, and nothing bothers them. It's supposed to give an air of confidence. Not that I agree with it, but it is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budapesttiger 2 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 To me he seems a bit uncomfortable talking about himself. Much more animated talking about the game or other players. Sounds like a smart kid kid, likeable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuburnNTexas 7,154 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Seems like a good kid. speaks well and thinks before he speaks. I am glad we got him not just for his football talent but because he does seem like an Auburn man. Confident without being cocky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixie1860 27 Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I have mentioned this before but since it is the topic; Tre is one of the more humble big time recruits I have ever spoken to until...I spoke to Roc Thomas. And having spoke to several of the kids now, almost all of them fit that mold personality wise. And those that don't aren't doing it wrong, DQ, Stuckey and another one or two seem like they will follow suit once they get here. But Tre, Roc, Sean, Stanton etc. are all kids that I would let watch my daughter if need be. The future is very bright and I look for AU to disappear from the Police Blotter altogether for many years!! Of course there will be mistakes made, these are college kids after all. But I don't see Lawson, Tre Williams, Roc Thomas and Rashaan Evans commiting any home invasions!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
