James Williams late hit penalty Clemson and accountability

I was shocked he stayed in there. Especially with how bad he's been playing.

I was actually expecting a late penalty on him on their QBs touchdown run when he was still trying to strip the ball 5 yards after the guy broke the plane.

Only possible explanation is that JW is a hard worker/strong leader off the field and he's in Mario's long term plans so he didn't want to shatter their relationship/confidence over a meaningless game? I'm not sure.. not advocating for that but it's always said that you don't treat all your players equally but you treat them all fairly. Maybe he's done enough to earn a longer leash and we just don't know what that is?

That sounds like the most reasonable explanation.

I’ve been told LB is very possible next year as a permanent move but I have some doubts he can even do that. I guess we’ll see.

Right now, I’ve seen nothing in his game that tells me he can play linebacker…in the box full time. Lacks physicality to play inside like that. I don’t know what you do with him. He definitely has traits but…like you said we shall see.

There was a play earlier in the corner of the end zone out of bounds where he shoved somebody late and I thought he was going to get called on that play.

That was against DJ and yea I thought he was getting flagged.... was really surprised no one threw a flag... It was pretty blatant...

LB is a totally different animal. Plus, it entails tackling and he can’t do that for some reason my mind can’t comprehend. He’s turned into a project and is a liability.

I have heard DE is a possibility for him if he can add the weight.

I can’t see him ever setting an edge. Maybe 3rd down here specialist? Frustrating situation.
 
LB might be his position. Get some Cuban Abuelitas from Hialeah to come down and fatten him up for next season.
 
DE or OLB at best. How many balls did he attempt to tip and miss?

Maryio was disputing the penalty, so safe to say he didn't see the push that came well out of bounds.
As far as where this kid can be impactful, in all likelihood nowhere. 5-star kid determined to be a safety. At his height, simply a tall order, no pun 😂, to have the ability to deal with skilled backs and receivers (particularly). Maybe a future at WILL, but kid is school-boy skinny and shaky from a tackling standpoint. As an all-world high-schooler just don't know that he'll yield to any staff and accept direction.

Our fanbase thinks we have better players than what we actually have.

I don’t think Gattis is the answer either but doesn’t anybody understand how limited we are due to to OL? It’s a joke. And then when we have a guy that is WIDE open - our QB misses him by 5 yards. LOL.

The players aren’t very good.

That entire game Was a **** show obviously. But I think the thing that’s really bothering me about whether or not this entire team and culture can be turned around by Mario’s current approach is about the moment Williams got flagged for hitting the Clemson guy so far out of bounds that Georgia state troopers are considering an arrest.

If Mario is trying to change things can somebody please explain to me how over after such a blatantly undisciplined idiotic selfish play, why was James Williams still on the field right for the next snap?

I’m not a coach, didn’t play college level and don’t claim to be a board expert, but I’m totally baffled at game 11 when that play happens how a tough coach looking for players to play the right way a guy who hasn’t been making plays the entire season was still on the field. And it wasn’t his first boneheaded move this year.

Anyone have an explanation that makes sense because it feels to me that almost every other coach I could think of would have yanked his *** off the field and honestly expected more from Mario

James Williams came close to another unsportsmanlike call when pushed the Clemson QB out of bounds after he scored a TD
