Verbal Commits @VerbalCommits
Samford F Tim Williams is leaving the program. (HT @TheRecruitScoop)
By far their best player and one of the top 3 players in the conference, if not the best!!!
[BTW - I always end the posting title with a "?" when its via twitter(don't quite trust it) and remove it after corroboration...]

We'd take him. He'd be a member of the current sophomore class. (Mehenti, Watts, and Madison)

averaged almost 18pts, I'm sure he'll have some big schools going after him.

RE: WOW!!! Tim Williams leaving Samford?
When transferring was unusual and few & far between, it was considered a problem for a few programs. Now it seems that players transfer as a way to let other coaches know they "are really that good" or to not seem uninteresting to other schools. Perhaps it has become a means of self validation like the old Madison Avenue mantra - "Run it up the old flag pole and see who salutes".
Maybe in a few years when the number is nearer a thousand, transfers may find they have become a glut on the market and most will find their new offers to be less exciting than anticipated and the numbers may decline.

RE: WOW!!! Tim Williams leaving Samford?
Many have transferred to lower-level D1, DII, NAIA, and DIII schools. Some just want one last shot at glory before they're done and, of course, other were "persuaded" to leave by their coaches...
