Williams on his commitment to Auburn

Caleb William discussed his decision to choose Auburn with Rivals.

“The main reason I chose Auburn was because of how consistent they were with staying in contact with me and being the first people to come out and see me during the high school live period. Also the plan that they have set up for me was one that stood out from the rest.”

What led to his trust in the coaching staff?

“They second I got on campus I could see how much of a family oriented staff they were. Everyone was joking with each other having a good time and that is important to me. They also have history and a background to show to me so everything they said I got to see with my own eyes.”

In his own words, what type of player is Auburn getting in Caleb Williams?

“I am a three level scorer who can play at different positions on the floor I am best with the ball in my hands, making plays for other and myself. I have good court vision and have good pick and roll awareness.”

He has a message for Auburn fans.

“I am someone who is going to pour their all into the program and make sure that we get a ring back on our fingers I can promise you that. WAR EAGLE!!!!
