All in all, the No. 3 rated running back in America has pieced together a dominant high school career with programs across America salivating at the potential he attains at the next level.

"Williams-Callis was a one-man wrecking crew as a junior, finishing the Texas high school football season with 3,502 yards on 324 carries while finding the end zone a whopping 59 times," Rivals wrote.

"He earned Rivals All-American honors after the season and is considering schools from coast to coast at the next level. Texas, Georgia, Ohio State, Texas A&M, Michigan and Oregon are among the programs high on the list for him right now."

Fast forward to this weekend and Williams-Callis will be in Baton Rouge on an official visit with Kiffin and Co. set to roll out the red carpet for what will be a star-studded weekend in The Boot.
