This is a very important victory for Auburn on the recruiting trail. 3* RB DJ Williams went from unknown lowly ranked 2* committed to Appalachian State to one of the most highly sought running back prospects in the southeast. The Tigers were the first to offer Williams and that proved big as he decided today (after one of the longest ceremonies I’ve seen in awhile) to commit to Auburn over Alabama and Georgia.
Williams missed much of his junior year due to injury but once his senior tape came out, his recruitment exploded. Auburn, Alabama, Georgia, Clemson, Michigan and plenty of others all came calling.
