We will be getting our DTs, no need to be so desperate.
I know absolutely nothing about the kid...... Rivals has him listed as a DT though? http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/r ... ams-110264

Since he doesn't have offers from the Florida schools I'm guessing he might not be a natural fit at DE? maybe not athletic enough for them? But he played LB in that video?

And looking at that photo he appears to have a thick frame...... and if he's already 240.... It just makes me wonder what were recruiting him for...

I'm not a scout subscriber so I don't know if he tells what position he's being recruited as.
I wasn't talking about you in particular, your comment just made me think of those people. I didn't know much about Williams either but I remember when Kamp committed everyone was hoping we could convert him to DT... no he's a DE. We need DEs too. Hopefully we can get another monster like Moala & Heimuli skips his mission so we can all stop worrying about our DT situation.

It's possible, but he's being recruited as a DE right now. Also, there's still some talented natural DT's out there that the ducks are pursing. So only if they struggle with DT recruiting again might they start shifting some DE's to DT.

Either way, I wouldn't stress about it. Any talent like Williams' will be put somewhere on D to help us win.
TK, I really think u r startin to come around...the last 4 words of your post...."to help us win"......good positive vibes there...you arent gettin wound up for fb season to begin are ya? lol
Haha less then 70 days, gotta stay positive, right?
