Jonah Williams update from visit (6:25pm CST)

Galveston (Texas) Ball 4-star+ safety Jonah Williams and parents visited Texas today.

Williams spent a lot of time with Steve Sarkisian, Blake Gideon and the defensive staff. 

Of course, baseball is part of the equation with the Williams recruitment. Williams, 6-3 and 205 pounds, was not able to meet with the Jim Schlossnagle or the staff in person today as the staff is out of town. He did have a FaceTime call with Schloss and staff members today.

Williams will head to LSU tomorrow ahead of an August 14 decision. 

Texas put their best foot forward, and believes they are in contention. Where Texas truly sits, they don’t yet have a feel for inside the facility.

What’s keeping him from doing a Ricky/Ced B move and getting drafted, playing in the summer, and stilll playing football here in the fall?

Thoe guys didn't have the legit baseball ceiling that a LHP throwing 94 has.
