"I committed to Minnesota," Williams said. "Pitt was second.
"I like the Big Ten. And I like Minnesota's academics. And I'll have the opportunity to start when I get there. My parents like Minnesota too.
"I'll be a cornerback at Minnesota."
The 5-foot-10 and 185 pound Williams intercepted five passes and rushed for 1900 yards during his senior season. Williams is the No. 45 defensive back prospect in the Rivals.com player rankings and the No. 24 prospect in the state of Ohio.
