LOOK: Ole Miss QB Commit Demond Williams Participates in Elite 11 Oxford
OXFORD, Miss. — Ole Miss Rebels quarterback commit Demond Williams participated in the Elite 11 Oxford Regionals at the football facilities of Oxford High School.
Williams, a four-star prospect out of Basha (Ariz.) High School, participated in drills with other quarterbacks and players from around the country on Sunday as he prepares for his senior season of prep ball.
At the time of his commitment, Williams went on the record about the deciding factor in his choosing of Ole Miss.
“Ole Miss was always in constant communication with me, and I feel that it’s a great fit for my play style,” Williams said. “I’m super excited with how they run their offense and how my style fits right into it. It was extremely important for me to commit early because I feel that building a great class is priority No. 1 to try and get the best guys to be built around this team.”
A total of 24 programs had offered Williams at the time of his decision. Ole Miss hosted Williams for a visit in mid-October when the Rebels defeated the Auburn Tigers.
“I could really see myself playing there,” he said then. “Playing in the SEC isn’t the biggest factor, but it has been a big thing for me. It’s the best players going up against the best players in the best stadiums with the best fans, so it’s definitely really appealing.”
