What OL position does Cam Williams play in college? I'm thinking OG but I can't say with certainty which side. He can certainly clog defensive lanes into the backfield, but can he develop quick feet?
I guess taking him means that Sarkisian/Flood want 6 OL? 
Theoretically:
OT: Kelvin Banks, Jacob Sexton
OG: Devon Campbell, Cole Hutson, Connor Robertson (knowing full well the latter two will receive cross training at Center)
So that's 5 OL right there with an outside chance at Kam Dewberry. Maybe Connor Robertson makes it interesting by picking Stanford?
 
OL recruiting is becoming exciting after a long ass time. 

I think Williams probably projects at tackle based purely on size/frame, particularly given Flood’s preference for size at RT, but that could be TBD based on how the roster fills out in his first couple years on campus. I think he’s certainly going to be a guy that needs a couple years of S&C work before playing regardless.

I don’t think they take more than five unless it’s an unexpected elite prospect you can’t turn down. With Williams I’d think it looks like Campbell, Banks, Hutson, Robertson, and Williams. Pretty nice haul.

He's listed at either 6'5" according to 247 or 6'7" on his highlight film. He's not too short for tackle. I agree his feet might be questionable for tackle.

Haven't watched him but his 3 star rating doesn't jive at all with his offer list. OU, Oregon, tOSU, LSU, UGA, USC and more. Never know what's committable but that's a high 4-star list.

He took a huge drop in the last Rivals update, which would indicate he went from an OU lean to Texas lean.  Was a composite 4* before that.

Sark and Jimbo are extraordinarily different human beings. Makes sense.

“Notable” may be the least descriptive adjective they could have chosen, so naturally they use it half a dozen times.

Just trying to figure out if is being viewed as a positive or negative but of course TFB only leaves that one line about Texas still getting acclimated to Sark/staff.

There was a long discussion about it on the paywall side. CJ Vogel clarified:

It would be nice if TFB would elaborate a bit more on what the difference in practice and general feel was. Their lack of info here is a bit frustrating.  
 
nvm, it was answered

I’m sure a coach who worked with Carroll and Saban, and a staff full of high level assistants who worked for Saban, don’t know how to create a quality practice atmosphere. 🙄

Yeah, I’d be shocked if that wasn’t the case to be honest. Sark is a west coast guy that’s coached in the NFL. Jimbo is Appalachia/deep south and has never been in the NFL. One came up under Pete Carroll, one under the Bowdens and Nick Saban. They have very different backgrounds.

I was also going to mention the age difference but I googled it and Jimbo is only 55. Would’ve pegged him well into his 60s.

His wife probably aged him at least a decade.  Actually, a lot of wives do.

Oh shit he stole EJ's coffee order

(Also based on the pictures we've seen of him, dude might want to cut back on the slushies if he doesn't want to be stuck on a Rascal scooter in 10 years)

While Sarkisian had a problem with alcoholism, Jimbo's appearance in the last few years kinda says he drinks a lot.

Is Bama seriously gonna try to take 3 RBs? Surely they don't have room for that many.
