WR T.Y. (Tyrone) Williams (official thread)

For anyone wondering about his speed, you can relax. This dude is fast. He ran 2nd leg on Shaw's 4x400m relay that placed at the state meet with a time of around 3:21. That's fast. He also ran on Shaw's 4x200m relay that went to regionals. No doubt in my mind he is plenty fast to be a very, very effective player at OSU.

Harding rallies to tie Shaw, 24-24 - Sports, Local Sports, High School Football - Vindy.com, The Vindicator

Shaw came right back, driving 80 yards for a touchdown, keyed by a 40-yard gain on a streak pattern to the Cardinals? big-time college prospect Tyrone Williams.

The 6-foot-7, 215-pound senior wideout was everything advertised. Though he caught just three passes, they went for 82 yards and all were caught despite double or triple coverage.

On Shaw?s next possession, a dropped pass and a good stop up front had the Cardinals in a third-and-nine situation at their own 26. But Williams fought off two defenders on a post pattern for a 36-yard gain, then Small found Jerome Talton wide open deep for a 38-yard scoring pass.

Small?s 6-yard touchdown pass to Williams with 1:37 left in the half increased Shaw?s lead to 24-12. That drive included a 62-yard bomb to Micah White on another third-and-long.

Ohio's top wide receiver Tyrone Williams selects the Buckeyes
Four-star pass-catcher Tyrone Williams (East Cleveland, Ohio/Shaw) became the 12th pledge for Ohio State on Saturday, ESPN affiliate Web site Bucknuts.com reports.

Cincinnati, West Virginia, Michigan State and Akron also extended scholarships to the 6-foot-5, 215-pound prospect.

"He was ready to get the process over," Shaw coach Rodney Brown said. "He didn't want to go to any other school. We sat down with his mom. She was equally impressed with Ohio State. So he decided to commit."

Williams still has some work to do academically but Brown is confident his talented senior will make the cut.

ESPN's Billy Tucker added, "The Buckeyes signed a great possession/red zone receiver last year in Duron Carter (Fort Lauderdale, Fla./St. Thomas Aquinas), and they just received a commitment from another sure-handed outside target for the future. Williams has awesome size; is built more like a power forward and an Ohio State hardwood recruit than a receiver. He could end up as a tight end or H-back in Columbus if his large frame continues to physically develop."

"The top rated receiver out of Ohio has a very large wingspan to go along with his awesome height and he knows how to utilize both to create mismatches on the jump-ball versus smaller defensive backs. Aside from his great size he has matching athleticism, body control and coordination. Williams is very athletic and consistently adjust his body naturally to come down with the difficult grab. He will surprise you with his top-end speed as well, but we also feel he may struggle to create separation as a route runner at the next level due to his lack of great polish, hip-fluidity and sharpness out of his breaks."

"Williams may need some refinement but he has very impressive physical tools for the Buckeye's coaching staff to mold and develop. A nice complement to speedy underneath receiver and ESPNU 150 prospect James Louis (Delray Beach, Fla./Atlantic Community). Williams is the sixth four star prospect for Ohio State's 2010 class which landed in the top-10 on our most recent class rankings."

Anyone that thinks this kid is going to be a project/doesn't have wheels/only catches jump balls, I invite you to watch his ScoutingOhio film. Me thinks you'll be as pleasantly surprised as I was. Tyrone's got some serious game.

Perfect compliament to James Louis and a killer end-zone bookend with Duron Carter. Getting Corey Brown would just make this unfair for the other team.

A little late to the game here, but... Congratulations, Mr. Williams! (said in Laurence Fishburne's fake caribbean accent from Higher Learning)

Euclid win could salvage playoff spot

Norm Weber, Special to The Plain Dealer, October 31, 2009 12:27 a.m.

Euclid's football team overcame bad first-half field position, 6-7 Ohio State-bound Shaw receiver Tyrone Williams, a nasty wind, and Cardinals quarterback Rob Small, who was dangerous on the run and pass.

. . .

It was Bryant who was assigned to cover Williams, holding him to zero catches.

"He definitely was the hardest receiver I had to defend," said Bryant. "I had to go way up there to knock away the ball, but I just did what I had to do. I knew my team had confidence in me when I was given the assignment and I just took that and ran with it."
