This summer, Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko and his staff will host a long list of 2025 prospects, including four-star defensive lineman Jaylen Williams out of Palatine, Illinois, according to On3’s Steve Wiltfong. Another long-framed, twitchy athlete dripping with potential, Williams’ has received several predictions to land with Michigan but has also set up an official visit to Nebraska on June 21.

But I never had the same fervor as others. Certainly not like the characters we find in Challengers.
