Williams also holds offers from Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Liberty, Louisville, Maryland, Penn State, Purdue, USC, and several others.

"The communication and how the all of the coaches always keep it real with me," Williams told Mountaineers Now as the main reason West Virginia made the cut.

The lead coach in charge of Williams' recruitment is co-defensive coordinator and defensive backs coach, ShaDon Brown, the coach he received the offer from back in September.
