Forest Williams and Jeremy Liggens ................
- Thread starter shsdawg
- Start date
Based on what I've seen in the last 2 state championship games, I don't think his future is at QB. But he is a freaking beast. If he wants to play QB, recruit him as a QB. Just sign him. A guy I grew up with was in a similar situation. He wasn't as good as Liggins, but he wasa QB/DB in HS and made 1st team All-State as a DB. Florida St., Bama, MSU and others recruited him as a DB. LSU was the only major school that recruited him as a QB. He went to LSU and midway through his true FR season he saw the writing on the wall and asked to be moved to DB. He wound up having a decent career for them at safety.</p>
and her folks are MSU people......If Freeze is hired, look for him to sign with the Rebs.......Freeze has been hard after him at ASU...........
They painted the lines in black. Pretty nice look.
Went to the game. Liggins is not a QB at the next level and I don't believe will have the mentality to play defense in college. Pretty easy to run over people in HS when you're the biggest guy on the field. Obviously different for SEC. I don't see him as a FB or TE either. Not the athleticism that allowed Sullivan at USM to move from QB to WR. Don't get me wrong...good athlete - just don't think he is an elite athlete.
Williams is good HS QB. Good size but arm strength will limit him. Freeze would offer him preferred walk-on at UM too. Sun Belt is a good fit. SEC is not.

If the guy has talent, I don't care if he's weak for SEC standards. He's not incredibly too small and he can easily gain the necessary 30- 40 lbs before his junior or senior year. Russell weighed a whopping 185 out of high school, add 4 inches.
I'd love to see him as a walk-on personally, especially if the Favre rumors are true about transferring after finals.
I know there's always that guy that comes out of nowhere from Bum17, Egypt that plays 1A ball that looks like a starting LB for the Pittsburgh Stealers but for the most part I think guys from Amory, Mississippi who have the talent at skill positions aren't going to have the resources to be 220 lbs of pure muscle. He's a project I like a whole lot more than Favre. And to be honest, if we hadn't offered our max already, Mullen would have offered or planned on offering... See: Dylan Favre.
