Justice Williams has all the tools to be a high-end receiver at the college level. The 6-4, 205-pound prospect from Oaks Christian High School in Westlake, California, holds 19 offers from all over the country including Miami, Oregon, Louisville, Syracuse, and Utah.

June has been a busy month for Williams, taking an unofficial visit to UCLA, along with official visits to Utah, Syracuse, and Washington. He has plans to decide where he'll be attending college by the end of the summer but will arrive in Seattle on Friday for his final visit before heading home to make his decision.

Williams has high hopes for his visit to Seattle, "Washington is an amazing school and I really love what they have to offer," he said to Inside the Huskies earlier in June. "I'm really looking forward to getting to experience the campus and the people up there."

Wide receivers coach JaMarcus Shephard told Williams that he has a plan to turn him into an NFL-caliber receiver. Between watching his film and seeing how Shephard molded similar body types in Rome Odunze and Denzel Boston, that plan is very clear.

Williams runs very well for his size and has clearly learned a lot from his father about how to get clean releases off the line of scrimmage. He high points the ball with ease and his long strides help him escape defenders with the ball in his hands.

As he develops a complete route tree, his ceiling is as high as any recruit on the west coast. After four-star receiver Emmett Mosley chose Stanford on Wednesday, closing on Williams needs to be front and center in the Husky coaching staff's heads.

I've followed the Huskies for my entire life, and to be in a position where I get to cover them full-time is nothing short of an honor. After graduating from Lasell University in 2019, I moved to Seattle to pursue my dream of working in sports media. While writing for the Husky Haul, I also covered local sports for the Everett Daily Herald before the COVID-19 pandemic. After being hired by Realdawg.com in February of 2021, I also transitioned into doing a lot of entertainment writing, as I work on a variety of magazines as a contributing writer for Centennial Media, and have also contributed to Emmy Magazine, as well as Walt Disney Television Studios.
