Williams visited campus on Thursday amidst internet chatter that a commitment was possible, before confirming his commitment to UK via his Twitter page.
“#BBN #Yahtzee!!!,” Williams said on his Twitter account, @boom_that_guy.
It is the first time in school history that UK football has received a commitment from the No. 1 ranked player at his position.
