Riley eyeing Donte Williams

[HuskerNBigD]

 

HuskersIllustrated.com and 247Sports analyst Justin Hopkins can confirm Nebraska has offered a staff position to Arizona defensive backs coach Donte Williams. Williams is weighing the offer, and a decision is expected quickly.

 

Williams is currently the secondary coach at Arizona and serves as a key West Coast recruiter for the Wildcats. Nebraska’s offer to Williams would make him a defensive passing game coordinator, where he would continue to work with the secondary and be heavily involved as a national recruiter.

 

The offer includes a significant pay increase, and Williams is expected to reach a decision soon. Nebraska wants to add Williams quickly in an effort to get him on the road before the end of the December recruiting period, which ends Dec. 12.

Williams also recruits Texas for Zona. He is the lead recruiter for the #2 CB (Anthony Cook) in the 2018 class along with the lead recruiter for BJ Foster (#1 safety) in the class of 2018. Both recruits are out of Texas.

This could also be said for Nebraska. We haven't had any de-commitments either, right? Not many schools can say that.

If this comes to fruition, he seems like a good recruiter.

I'll believe it when I see it, I refuse to allow myself to get super excited until I see something official saying he's taking the job. He would be a huge get for us as far as coaching/recruiting goes. I hope this works out............

I like the position we offered him.
