autan 737 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 If Denson decides to move on we'll definitely need a 2nd WR signee for depth. One receiver I thought might test the waters was Ray due to his age. Melvin may get some of the CJ snaps next year. I believe the heir apparent was Jakell. Spring will be interesting to see what changes CGM will make to the offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's not a good fit now is the time to learn that. There's a good possibility he only came over here to collect his OV money and talk Auburn down and Tennessee up. C'ya!

Randman5000 4,223 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Well it is might explain slayton coming over if the staff didn't feel good about Williams. I can see us signing a name out of nowhere atthis point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randman5000 4,223 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 http://www.al.com/auburnfootball/index.ssf/2015/01/elite_wr_preston_williams_addr.html "It was all right," Williams said. "I just didn't want to be there anymore. I was ready to go home. I was forced into the visit. (Auburn coaches) came that Thursday and told me to come at the last minute. I didn't plan on going." The 6-foot-4, 191-pounder from Hampton, Ga., committed to the Volunteers in September and is one of several wide receivers Auburn has targeted in recent months. He admitted he was wearing Tennessee gear during the trip and was recruiting other prospects to play for the Vols. "A lot of schools, they don't like it," Williams said. "They told me to take it off, this and that. They were getting mad. When they were getting mad, I was like, 'Do I believe them or not? Are they playing with me or what?' So I was just laughing." Citing "a source in Auburn's program with direct knowledge of the situation," WNML also asked Williams to address a rumor that he was caught smoking marijuana in his hotel. "Not at all," he said. "That's how people get when you don't want to do something, they try to put bad words out on you, rumors and stuff. I just let them put rumors out on me. People are going to believe what they want to believe because they have their own opinion." Williams is ranked as the nation's No. 7 receiver in the 247Sports Composite. He plans to visit Tennessee this weekend, his final trip before National Signing Day next week. "I'm tired of the recruiting process," he said. "I hate it. It's annoying. You see what just happened. I took a visit to Auburn and it got blown out of proportion. You know how that goes." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU64 10,122 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Lucky break for AU....makes me wonder however, why the coaches ever let a guy like this get within ten miles of the campus on a recruit weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Rice punching his fiancee was probably a surprise to folks who knew him a lot better than we could possibly expect our coaches to know this kid. He's a legit 5* WR. You roll the dice and use the opportunity to get to know him better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
