It has been reported that Alabama wide receivers coach Holmon Wiggins is leaving the Crimson Tide to take the same position at Texas A&M. 

The relevance of this situation for the Auburn Tigers has to do with five-star receiver Ryan Williams. 

Williams has been committed to Alabama since October of 2022, but the Auburn Tigers are trying to make a late push after one of the best players in the 2024 class. 

He is currently preparing to participate in the Under Armour All-American Game with Auburn receiver signees Cam Coleman and Perry Thompson, so his mind is likely on this game and not his college decision. 

But when the dust clears from the All-American game Wiggins leaving for Texas A&M could have an effect on the recruitment of Williams and definitely helps the Auburn Tigers some.

Williams will be on the Plains for a visit February 3rd so Coach Freeze and the staff will have another opportunity to try and land a player who many believe could be a first-round pick in the NFL Draft in the future. 

If Auburn was able to flip Williams from the Crimson Tide the Tigers wide receiver class would be on of the best in college football history. 

Perry Thompson posted this tweet right after it was announced Higgins would head to College Station.
