Through the first week of fall camp, several newcomers have caught the attention of the coaching staff. Freshman cornerback Reese Taylor, cornerback Jaylin Williams and safety Devon Matthews are three players in particular who have made a strong impression early on.
Meanwhile, redshirt junior wide receiver Nick Westbrook looks every bit 100 percent healthy as IU head coach Tom Allen mentioned in the start of training camp based on what we've seen in practice. He's running, cutting and jumping with zero setbacks.
In recruiting, 2019 3-star Tennessee defensive tackle Kristian Williamsincluded Indiana in his Top 6 on Aug. 4, along with Memphis, LSU, Tennessee, Missouri and Minnesota. Distance doesn't appear to be a factor which should bode well for IU. However, he also stated when he released his top six that his recruitment was still open, so he'll be one to keep an eye on moving forward as things could clearly change given his open status.
2019 4-star Merrillville (Ind.) Andrean linebacker and IU target Cam Williamscaught up with Rivals Midwest Recruiting Analyst Josh Helmholdt for the latest on his recruitment. The key update there is Williams wants to wait to schedule official visits until after he sends out film of the first three games of his senior season. Michigan, Michigan State, Wisconsin and Louisville are some of the big names on his radar, and he's also been in some contact with USC and Notre Dame.
This does not mean Indiana is out of the running for Williams. It's more an indication that he's still open in his recruitment and going to take his time.
