Cameron Williams’ recruitment was redirected by two minutes of tape.
Two minutes and four seconds, to be specific. When he reluctantly published the highlight on March 3, 2018, Williams — now an early enrollee freshman at Washington — still considered himself a quarterback. After all, he had been the starting varsity signal caller for the previous two seasons at Bakersfield (Calif.) High School. Heck, he even earned a scholarship offer from Rich Rodriguez to play quarterback at Arizona prior to his sophomore season.
It’s true, the 6-foot, 185-pound soon-to-be high school senior also dabbled on defense. But his future was under center.
