“I’m waiting to see what happens to my boys,” said Williams, a 6-3, 215-pound signal caller considered one of the top senior prospects in North Carolina. “I’ll talk to the coaches there every now and then to see what’s up. I’m just waiting.”

On July 10, Williams announced that he had committed to UNC, choosing the Tar Heels over Michigan and Virginia Tech among many others. Prior to the announcement, though, he planned on taking official visits to other schools. This plan has not changed and Tech is scheduled to be one of those visits.
