Dontae Williams has been given his release and is transferring from Oregon

Four star recruit from Houston. Big back, LSU should give him a look. Someone finally got tired of the logjam at the RB position but I honestly didn't think it would be DW. I thought it would be Lache.

Williams and Seastrunk were expected to compete for carries in 2011 behind returning starter LaMichael James and backup Kenjon Barner, both juniors.
Williams was viewed as a bigger back who might have provided a change of pace from the smaller, shiftier players joining him on the Oregon depth chart.
The Ducks signed another big back from Texas earlier this month, Tra Carson of Texarkana.
Also added to the mix in the fall could be top-rated recruit De’Anthony Thomas, a two-way star from Crenshaw High in Los Angeles who might play running back at Oregon.
Williams was a PrepStar all-American upon signing with Oregon in 2010, after running for more than 1,000 yards with 12 touchdowns as a high school senior.
He was considered a four-star recruit by Rivals.com and ESPN.com, and a three-star player according to Scout.com.
Both Rivals and Scout rated Williams among the top 15 running backs in the nation in that year’s recruiting class.

I wanted this guy out of HS at LSU I just don't think we have any room, he'll probably go somewhere in Texas, either UT, TAMU, or maybe even TCU, I would go to TCU at this point, their RB's as of late have been beasts

You sure there is no real logjam at RB at LSU?

TCU would be his best bet. With Texas more than likely getting Johnathan Gray in this class, he will be their starter

Texas is far from "more than likely" getting Gray. More like MAYBE getting Gray.

Don't forget Magee!! I think will be the best back out of this class good balance vision and power

Stay away...

Even if Gray goes to Texas and becomes their number 1, he might find space. It isn't like they have been tearing it up in the running game.

Didnt Texas just sign Malcom Brown also?
Posted on 2/18/11 at 2:31 pm to LSUintheNW
He ends up at T Tech.

If Texas were to get Gray, they'd have not only him and Malcolm Brown, but Traylon Shead, who is considered a potential emerging force at the position.

Texas will get Gray.There's no maybe to it anymore.He'll be commited before March is over.TCU and TT are the comp but Texas clinched him at Jr. Day.Even more likely and could drop sooner if they refuse to offer Trey Williams but either way he's a Longhorn.
Williams can fit in anywhere.I really liked him coming out of HS.Grades scared a lot of teams for a while and by the time schools started to get on him Oregon had already blown him away.TT or TCU would be great fits for him instate.
