Williams recruitment
Williams notched an offer from Michigan in late April and made an unofficial visit to Ann Arbor for the BBQ at The Big House this summer.
Michigan is in a strong position early on in his process and currently sits at second on the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine with a 26.0 percent chance of landing him. Illinois is considered the favorite with a 29.7 percent chance of landing him.
Along with Michigan, Williams holds offers from Auburn, Florida State, Georgia, Miami, Nebraska, Tennessee, Texas A&M, USC, Wisconsin and others.
At 6-foot-6, 280 pounds, Williams is ranked as the No. 22 defensive lineman and No. 210 overall prospect nationally, per the On3 Industry Ranking. He is also ranked as the No. 6 overall recruit in the state of Illinois for next cycle.
While On3 lists Williams as a defensive lineman, Michigan is recruiting him as a bigger EDGE in the same mold as Aidan Hutchinson and Mike Morris. Williams plays with his hand in the dirt and also stands up for his high school team.
Williams is looking to make a return visit to Michigan for a game this fall. However, he has not locked in an exact date.
Michigan has two verbal commitments in its 2025 recruiting class in Top 100 Miami (Fla.) Chaminade-Madonna defensive back Chris Ewald and four-star Howell (Mich.) High defensive lineman Bobby Kanka. The class is currently ranked No. 16 nationally and No. 3 in the Big Ten, per the On3 Industry team recruiting rankings.
