It would be nice if Ryan Williams has another big game against Georgia..

We could use his big play capabilities against The Pup's Saturday..

Would love to see Ryan go off for about 150 yards and two TDs

I'd love to see him make routine catches, run good routes, and block somebody.

“Potential” is like the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. It’s nice to think about but you never get there.

 

[RollTide_HTTR]

I still believe in him. He's a talented kid. Honestly I think kids need to stop reclassifying though. I also think he needs to be an outside WR not a slot guy

 

[Tug Tide]

It was a bad move for him to reclassify and miss that last year of high school.

I couldn't make heads or tails out of what DeBoer said about Williams not being targeted. Maybe I can't understand plain English.

Nah, he's two years removed.

Time to man up. It is what it is.

Respectfully disagree.
I just don’t think he was mentally ready, or physically yet for that matter

Immature.

Immature.

I’m mostly disappointed that there wasn’t a lot of work done to improve in the off season.

I guess that’s going to sometimes be a side effect of giving young guys too much money and attention at such a young age.

They think they are polished and NFL ready when they are not.

I have also been disappointed that our WR Coach and CKD let him slack off like this and not make improvements.

It’s their jobs to help the players improve and not allow such a regression.

 

[Jack Bourbon]

He may be too small rn

I agree with what others have said, get him with Smitty in the offseason and let him whip him in to shape. The kid has amazing potential, but he just needs to mature and become more physically and mentally tough.

 

[rolltd]

Rumor has him talking to LSU

He literally worked out with Smitty multiple times this summer. Why are we trying to start stuff that he didn't put in any work this summer; when it is actually the opposite? He put in a crazy amount of work this offseason. He has lost confidence. It happens unfortunately. I firmly believe that he will gain his confidence back and deliver ( perhaps even tomorrow).
