Is Williams still favoring the Panthers

Wayne (Pa.) Valley Forge Military safety Bryan Williams committed to Pittsburgh back in the class of 2005. The 6-foot-0, 197-pounder has been working his way through the NCAA Clearinghouse and is ready to enroll this summer. Is he still headed to Pittsburgh?

"Everything is going well for me, I'm getting interest from Pittsburgh, Akron, Temple, Minnesota, Kansas and Syracuse," he said. "I have offers from all of them except Kansas and Syracuse since they just hopped back into the picture. Both are saying they'll possibly offer when they get film on me."

The three-star prospect has one visit planned so far to the Steel City.

"I'm going to Pittsburgh on January 19th," he said. "That is the only visit I have planned right now. I would say that Pittsburgh is still on top of my list and is probably the school I will end up at to tell you the truth.

"I know how the players are there and they have accepted me for two years. I have a good relationship with coach Junko and Wannstedt. I like the environment and campus, but really the big thing is the fact that they have stuck with me for two years. They could have left me alone once I got to Valley Forge, but they continued to show me interest, I respect that a lot."

Williams is still considering a possible official to Syracuse sometime this month.

"I don't know if I'll take another visit since I haven't seen what Syracuse is like. They never recruited me out of high school."

No matter where he ends up, the junior college prospect plans to enroll in June.
