On Monday, the LSU Tigers extended a scholarship to Williams. The offer came while LSU defensive backs coach Corey Raymond was visiting the Florida native.<\/p>\n
The Tigers are working on putting together their first true prep class under new head coach Lane Kiffin. So far, LSU has landed a few impressive recruits such as five-star tight end Ahmad Hudson, four-star defensive end Jaiden Bryant, and four-star quarterback Peyton Houston.<\/p>\n
It remains to be seen if Williams schedules an official visit to LSU.<\/p>\n

Williams was back on campus in March, and now the Seminoles will look to shut his recruitment down when he returns in early June.<\/p>\n During his junior season at Lennard High School, Williams totaled 33 tackles, four pass deflections, and two interceptions. He recorded a season-high seven tackles and two pass deflections in a 35-0 victory against Lakewood Ranch High School on September 26.<\/p>\n The 6-foot-2.5, 160-pound defensive back is regarded as the No. 196 overall prospect, the No. 17 S, and the No. 22 recruit in Florida in the 2027 class according to the 247Sports Composite Ratings.<\/p>\n Information On Florida State’s 2027 Class<\/p>\n Florida State holds six verbal commitments in #Tribe27, which ranks No. 38 in the country.<\/p>\n Who Is Committed To FSU In The 2027 Class?<\/p>\n Three-Star TE Connor Winn<\/p>\n Three-Star DE Anthony Cavallaro<\/p>\n Four-Star LB Gregory Batson<\/p>\n Four-Star DB Mekhi Williams<\/p>\n Three-Star DB Jemari Foreman<\/p>\n Three-Star DB DaYon Cooper<\/p>\n Who Does Florida State Have In The Defensive Backfield For The 2026 Season?<\/p>\n Ashlynd Barker, Redshirt Senior<\/p>\n Donny Hiebert, Senior<\/p>\n Quindarrius Jones, Senior<\/p>\n KJ Kirkland, Redshirt Junior<\/p>\n Ja’Bril Rawls, Redshirt Junior<\/p>\n Karson Hobbs, Junior<\/p>\n Nehemiah Chandler, Redshirt Sophomore<\/p>\n CJ Richard Jr., Redshirt Sophomore<\/p>\n Jarvis Boatwright, Redshirt Sophomore<\/p>\n Charles Lester III, Redshirt Sophomore<\/p>\n Ricky Knight III, Redshirt Sophomore<\/p>\n Jamari Howard, Redshirt Sophomore<\/p>\n Ma’Khi Jones, Sophomore<\/p>\n Gregory Xavier Thomas, Redshirt Freshman<\/p>\n Max Redmon, Redshirt Freshman<\/p>\n Antonio Cromartie Jr., Redshirt Freshman<\/p>\n Chauncey Kennon, Freshman<\/p>\n Darryl Bell III, Freshman<\/p>\n Jordan Crutchfield, Freshman<\/p>\n Sign up for our\u00a0free newsletter<\/a>\u00a0and follow us on\u00a0Facebook<\/a>,\u00a0X<\/a>\u00a0, and\u00a0Instagram<\/a>\u00a0for the latest news.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/assets.minutemediacdn.com\/platform\/google_discover_icon.svg\"){kind=icon}
