Anyone who pays attention to college football recruiting knows that it has been crazy for years. And that craziness has hit a higher level with the introduction of NIL. But the current recruiting process of Class of 2026 linebacker Izayia Williams has redefined the word crazy.
It all started back on November 20, 2023, when Williams committed to Louisville after taking an unofficial visit to check out the Cardinals. That was the start of this chaotic roller coaster:
January 28, 2024: Decommitted from Louisville
April 15, 2024: Committed to Syracuse
August 4, 2024: Decommitted from Syracuse
September 4, 2024: Committed to Florida State
November 7, 2024: Decommitted from Florida State

August 15, 2025: Decommitted from Ole Miss
August 15, 2025: Recommitted to Florida State
This is the definition of chaos. And the fun part is that National Signing Day isn’t until December 3rd, which is in 104 days. Are any Florida State fans excited about grabbing the commitment of one of the top linebacker recruits in the country? They shouldn’t be.
And if his high school recruiting process is this chaotic, imagine how his transfer portal process is going to be in a year, and then in two years and three years?
