-December 2020. He didn’t have to walk on, the other QB committed to the Sooners got scared and bailed on the class. Williams said it was important for his development to play for Riley and get to the NFL. Like the two previous OU qb’s. So he gets to Oklahoma knowing a Heisman favorite was there. Rattler, like a good character actor, assumes the role, and thru poor play opens the door wide. Williams comes in and perfoms like a Heisman winner and future nfl top pick. 2000 yards passing and you saw what he can do on the run, 19 td’s and 4 picks. The definition of a difference maker . Willed his teams to wins.
Riley on the sidelines.
So where does he go now? What has changed from a year ago when he was willing to walk on for the opportunity to work with Riley? there is a deadline coming, he needs to find a school soon. so where is he? On visits? Nope. On vacay in Florida relaxing. Like someone who already knows where he wants to go. Rumor this week from someone on the team now, “ it’s looking good for CW and he is not coming alone “.
NIL money is rumored to be at play but CW comes from a well heeled family. Land developers. So NIL might not be the most important thing. Getting to the NFL is. Who can make that happen? Chip? Chip might not have a job in a few weeks. Georgia, definitely a possibility, who develops him there? The guy who recruited so a walk on was their starter? only one choice seems logical. I like Dart but this move puts the flux capacitor in motion.
so we countered with $1.2?
