Cleveland WR Marcus Williams has received offer from the University of New Mexico.
NMPreps.com has learned that 6-foot-4, 210 pound receiver Marcus Williams out of Cleveland High School has just picked up a D-1 offer from the New Mexico Lobos. The Class of 2016 prospect has caught for 677-yards this season and 10 touchdowns.
"Marcus is one of the hardest workers on our team. He is a captain and a leader. He is one of the best football players I have ever had the pleasure of coaching and think that New Mexico hit the nail on the head with this offer. I am very proud of Marcus and excited about his future," Said Head Cleveland Football Coach Heath Ridenour.
Henderson's Take: I've seen a lot of high school football and we have not had many like Williams. What separates him is his ability to cause mis-matches inside the red-zone because of his size at 6-foot-4, 210 pounds and his A+ hands. I haven't seen him drop anything. I feel if he plays in a larger metro area with a more active recruiting base he is a 10-15 offer type guy. He will need to work on his speed and route running abilities in-order to contribute at the D-1 level, but his in-tangibles that he has right now as a 17 or 18 year old make him someone you want within your program. He is also a great young man off the field, met him several times and he is very polite.
