Caleb Williams Says His Dad Wouldn't Let Him Choose Alabama

New USC quarterback Caleb Williams appeared on Good Morning America on Wednesday to discuss his decision to commit to the Trojans in the transfer portal.

While his recruitment out of the transfer portal ultimately ended with him choosing USC and former Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley, it was clear that it was a family decision for Williams to head to Southern Cal.

While Williams was heavily recruited both out of high school and out of the transfer portal, there was one school he definitely wasn't going to attend.

“About 10 years ago, my dad actually told me to make a list of schools I wanted to go to and he said (number) one, you can’t have Alabama on there,” Williams said on Good Morning America.
