'19 GA DT Austin Williams (SIGNED to COLORADO)

Leaving it late isn't he. Well good luck to him. If he was going to transfer, should have announced it early while there are open spots at other programs.
 
This was announced after spring practice. He was buried on our depth chart after playing serious minutes as a True frosh under Tucker.

Another southern recruit leaving CU before making a meaningful impact. Shocker

In this case, I think he is a player that is leaving that also happens to be southern. As opposed to a player leaving because he is southern. I do understand your larger point, though, and don’t disagree that we have to be judicious in our recruiting strategy.

From the various interviews over the years, he seems like a good guy. I hope he finds a good landing spot.

Yeah, I think this was a case of Tucker trying to get in size with that 2019 team in any way he could at the dline because it was absolutely decimated by the previous regime. He was always a G5 type talent.
 
Tidbit I'd heard from OL guy was Austin had all the tools, but didn't want to work. He was being passed by guys who are willing to do the work.

If this is true it is unfortunate but it happens in every program. It then becomes a positive for the program and the kid when he moves on.

Makes some sense because guys who don't have the tools don't have the offer list he had.

Happens all the time. Historically, these guys eat up too many spots on our roster....glad to see he is looking for a better opportunity, and I hope it works out for him. Good luck to him.
