WSU lands 2015 running back recruit

 

James Williams has added his name to Washington State's 2015 football recruiting class, according to recruiting analyst Braulio Perez of Cougfan.com. The running back from Burbank, California is listed at 5-foot-11, 185 pounds and was named the MVP of the Pacific League after reportedly rushed for 1,503 yards on 156 carries and scoring 29 total touchdowns.

Williams also claimed scholarship offers from Arizona and California. Scout.com lists him as a three-star prospect and rates him the No. 56 running back in the country. He becomes the fifth recruit in the class of 2015 to make a public commitment to playing football at WSU. Recruited athletes can't make their decision final until signing their National Letters of Intent in February.
