Williams could be next from Immokalee

Immokalee (Fla.) High is no stranger to putting out top shelf Division I talent. In the Class of 2008, wide receiver Markease Williams is one of the players from Immokalee that should end up finding his way to a major college football program in the fall.
The 6-foot-2, 190-pounder has been hearing from some programs that have recruited his high school in recent years.

"I've heard from Wisconsin, Ohio State and Florida," he said. "I like them a lot. They are Division I schools. I like them."
The Badgers signed cornerback Aaron Henry from the school in the Class of 2006 while the Buckeyes signed Brian Rolle. The Gators recruited both prospects during the process.
There are other programs that have Williams' attention.
"I like Michigan a lot," he said. "I like Georgia Tech and Georgia. They run good offenses and throw the ball and that's what I want to do."
Williams talked about what makes him a Division I-A prospect at his position.
"I work hard," he said. "That's what I do. I play receiver and I work hard."
Williams has been timed as fast as 4.5 seconds in the 40-yard dash. He also runs track for Immokalee, competing in the 100, 200 and 400-meter dash.
Williams also did the placekicking for his school this past fall while playing limited snaps behind Henry and others at wide receiver. When he did see the field on offense, he made the most of it, catching five passes for 123 yards (an average of 24.6 yards per catch) and a touchdown and IHS posted a 10-0 record.
He currently only has one camp planned for the spring/summer.
"Our coach always takes us to USF, but other than that I don't have anything lined up."
Williams attended the Rivals.com Tampa Bay Junior Day last weekend at Clearwater Countryside High School in Clearwater, Fla.
