Tight ends coach Todd Hartley is an elite recruiter
Hartley has a great track record and is a big reason why the Bulldogs have won back-to-back national championships.

Williams is a good basketball player too
Williams is like many other top tight end recruits. A basketball background is helpful for tight ends, who often have to make contested catches.
