The Alabama football star freshman wide receiver initially ended his commitment to the Crimson Tide hours after coach Nick Saban announced his retirement from the program and days after wide receivers coach Holmon Wiggins left for Texas A&M. But Williams said it didn't take long for DeBoer and the new Alabama coaching staff to make an impact.

Ryan Williams usually wears gloves during Alabama football games. But when he takes them off, you can see his painted nails. Such was the case Friday after practice, when Williams spoke to reporters. The green was easy to notice. Each of his nails were painted in a bright green.

Here's why the former Alabama coach encouraged Ryan Williams to start a podcast during his time with Alabama football.

Williams, a 6-foot, 175-pound freshman wide receiver, leads Alabama with 10 catches for 285 receiving yards. He has secured four of quarterback Jalen Milroe's eight touchdown passes, and is the only wide receiver to have multiple scores.

For Alabama football freshman receiver Ryan Williams, it was the latter. The first day the Crimson Tide wore pads in practice, the Saraland product went across the middle on a shallow crossing route. He tried to juke. Emphasize on tried. Linebacker Justin Jefferson made Williams pay for it.

Two of the Crimson Tide's star freshmen teamed up to create the "New Wave Podcast" with over 100,000 views on YouTube three episodes in.

Georgia's head coach Kirby Smart spoke about the upcoming matchup, and spoke about Alabama's offensive talent, particularly the young phenom receiver Ryan Williams, who has been a headliner in Alabama's first three wins of the season. Charlie Potter provided a specific quote on X.
