Robb Williamson

Pierce College defensive end Robb Williamson is coming to NMSU in the summer of 2010.

Williamson said that DeWayne Walker was a huge reason he selected NMSU. He was a sought-after player by a handful of colleges, but the Aggies were willing to be patient with him and wait until next summer to see him on campus.

I have heard that the Los Angeles area is very high on Walker and that NMSU is a topic of conversation. How big of a topic, I'm really not sure, but there is some chatter. And I like the way he is building the team. Williamson is a front-seven player and it seems like Walker is a big believer in establishing good play up front.

Williamson, who stands at 6-foot-3, 260 pounds, had 12 sacks last season, 40 tackles, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery.

Sounds like a nice get for coach Walker.

Coach Walker is VERY highly regarded in So. Cal! NMSU has several major players from Ca. already because of CDW and I suspect many more to come! We saw first hand what he can accomplish at UCLA! Next up NMSU!

Rivals.com article said he graduates in December.

Williamson said that he will "most likely" graduate in June and the reason he chose NMSU was because the Aggies were willing to wait on him.

I am pretty sure all those teams who offered would of waited on him to.

Looks like this kid makes a living in the backfield.
Seems like a good signing!
