You don’t get them all right and this is one I honestly was not ready for. I’m pretty close with most of the high school coaches in the Columbus/Phenix City area. Those close to Mykel Williams, specifically one of his coaches and one family member have been saying all of the right things about UGA.
Here’s where I messed up. I didn’t take into consideration that UGA might not be recruiting him as hard as others. And I know, I know………………this might sound like one of those “we didn’t want him anyways” excuses but I promise this isn’t what that is. I 100% think we would have taken his commitment if he wanted to do it, but I was told that he told one local coach that UGA wasn’t all in on recruiting him. And that was straight from that coach’s mouth.
He could very well stick with Southern Cal, but it’s June. Let’s see what happens and if UGA ramps up the attention.
