Malik Williams Update Article

[hawk_it]

Williams, who needs to continue to gain strength and become more assertive in the paint, plans to cut his list later this summer.

"I'm not sure, but I'm looking at August," he said. "Probably to about five."

As for when a decision might come, it's "whenever I find the right fit."

Iowa: "Iowa is a nice program. They've been very consistent and up front about everything and they have a nice campus."

Williams visited Michigan State last week and Louisville within the last month.

As for Michigan State, "It's a nice campus. I've been down there a couple times now, so I'm just getting a feel for it. They're re-doing the whole campus so it's gonna be nice."

He said Georgetown, Cincinnati, Xavier and Iowa are also in the mix.

Is that true? Is MSU re-doing their entire campus? That seems quite odd.

"He said ...... and Iowa [is] also in the mix."

The dreaded "in the mix" mention. A courteous gesture to the losing suitors.

This guy will not be playing for Iowa. Sorry.

He is going to be a Spartan.

 

[CanadaHawk]

He is going to be a Spartan.

If so, he'd better be prepared to 'seriously' bulk up to play for Izzo.

 

[2432Hawk]

He is going to be a Spartan.

Based on how Malik wants to play, that would be the worst fit for style of play for his game.

 

[BBHawk]

He is going to be a Spartan.

Based on?

 

[hawkfan0319]

Based on?

Based on nothing more than a hunch. No inside info.

He is going to be a Spartan.

Info????? I'm reading Louisville. His mom seems impressed and Louisville is ACC ball. Williams is probably a two year in any program guy. Louisville is after bigs to let Williams compete at stretch PF (Dirk/ Durant mold).

And Louisville has those babes that you know come as part of the benefit package of being a Cardinal

What mom wouldn't want Pitino to be a role model and look out for her son.

Louisville's arena is one of the best in the NCAA. Louisville spends a lot on its sports programs. Academically, not a fan.

We made his top 8 per Twitter. I personally feel like he's Sparty bound but that's just me.

Stranger things have happened.

As of his morning, I think he's a Hawk. Eno Benjamin, the prized RB commit who has been instrumental in the FB staff's success recruiting Texas this year, just started pulling for Williams to come to Iowa. It's all but a lock at this point.

I think it's between Louisville and Michigan State. I'm a Purdue fan and went to the same high school that Williams attends, but it just seems like those are the two in which he's most interested.

Iowa missed the cut for Jordan Goodwin

Iowa missed the cut for Jordan Goodwin

Disappointed as I think Goodwin will be really good. That said we seem pretty full at the 2g as of right now.
