The East Texas standout will make an unofficial visit this weekend to LSU. He's also expected to attend the Tigers spring game April 13. A June official visit is also expected. 

Williams also plans to visit Texas A&M this spring, and make a June official visit. His first official visit is also locked in. Williams will visit TCU May 3-5. 

LSU and Texas lead the way in the recruitment headed into the spring with Texas A&M and TCU giving chase.

It’s a bit concerning he will have 3 LSU visits (Jan, March and April) before his next UT visit.

Letting bo go to LSU is a huge loss until kenny proves it not to be.

not sure if we had a choice for him going to lsu.  funny also that we were complaining that bo couldn't recruit elite dts, but now we are concerned he is recruiting elite dts to lsu.

I agree with this concern... not sure what NIL voodoo that they put on DK Moore to get him to commit so early.. but they have that capability.  now they have momentum with the addition of Underwood, Berry, and the coach that produced our 2 star DTs.

For sure. Bo has been recruiting high-end talents for year and years. 

IMO, Texas is about to get more serious about the NIL component and DL recruiting in the 2025 cycle. Something to lock away.

I respect Bo’s  history but I don’t remember the last high ranked  IDL he has recruited and landed  while being back at Texas. 

In recent years so many  people have questioned Bo’s recruiting ability and his inability to land high 4 or 5 Star IDL. 

So I sure hope his Texas track record holds true to form and he drops the ball on a few of these high ranked IDL at lsu
