Pooka Williams signs with Kansas
Not that we ever really had a shot with him but interesting that he stuck with Kansas of all places.http://www.theadvocate.com/new_orleans/ ... dd48a.html
Welcome to gotula.net, where it's never too late to mention Tanner Lee or Andy Cannizaro. And now I think we can add Lindsey Scott Jr. to that list.

Interesting especially with all the so called “Insiders” saying he was definitely not going to Kansas.ajcalhoun wrote:Not that we ever really had a shot with him but interesting that he stuck with Kansas of all places.http://www.theadvocate.com/new_orleans/ ... dd48a.html

I have no idea what could have attracted this young man to college football oblivion. One more example of the mysteries of the mind of an 18 year old.

The ex Warren Easton coach Tony Hull recruited Pooka. He was back here during the playoffs looking at the Destrehan running back John Emery who will be a senior next year
In spite of all of the hoopla, Pooka is only rated 3 stars by both 247 & Rivals.greenphantom wrote:Interesting especially with all the so called “Insiders” saying he was definitely not going to Kansas.ajcalhoun wrote:Not that we ever really had a shot with him but interesting that he stuck with Kansas of all places.http://www.theadvocate.com/new_orleans/ ... dd48a.html
Same as Lindsey Scott but we're still talking about him a lot.Wave755 wrote:In spite of all of the hoopla, Pooka is only rated 3 stars by both 247 & Rivals.
But seriously, the way Pooka Williams ran through the playoffs in the state's highest classification was dominating until he got hurt in the title game. If he can stay eligible he should do very well.

I know its your job, but doesn't it have to feel conflicting in your heart when you're from the NOLA area and you're telling a kid from the NOLA area how great things are in Kansas?HoustonWave wrote:I have no idea what could have attracted this young man to college football oblivion.

Stadiums get old, winning never does.

Texas and Texas A & M decided not to offer him, probably reputed academic issues and 5'9" height were factors. Another factor may be Herman's class is so "stella" at UT, but Jimbo has still only signed 14 @ A & M?ajcalhoun wrote:Same as Lindsey Scott but we're still talking about him a lot.Wave755 wrote:In spite of all of the hoopla, Pooka is only rated 3 stars by both 247 & Rivals.

The only actual signing offer he had was Kansas. LSU was recruiting him but didn’t offer him to sign early. He supposedly has his ACT score but needs some core grades this spring. I’m sure he’ll eek by, can’t let the legend fail. 
Strange coincidence—-Baylor signed a Kid with almost identical numbers, same size, named Williams and also has a different type nickname “Sqwirl”. Herman and UT went at him hard the last month and even showed up at his house Wednesday after being told no thanks that day. He signed with BU Thursday.
