Troy Williams uses drop in rankings as motivation
Posted Jun 12, 2012
Roughly two weeks ago, Troy Williams underwent a mental metamorphosis which caused him to develop a rather sizable chip smack-dab on his shoulder. When ESPN RecruitingNation released its updated hoops class rankings, Williams learned he’d plummeted from No. 6 all the way to No. 42 in the ESPN 100, a drop that he said he “never saw coming.” “I don’t get it at all, but that’s someone’s opinion, and it’s up to me to prove them wrong."
