Drama is brewing for the Alabama Crimson Tide following freshman cornerback ‘s unexpected decision to enter the transfer portal. Allegations of tampering have surfaced after On3’s Charlie Potter reported that he was offered a seven-figure deal to leave Tuscaloosa, sparking rumors that Ole Miss may be involved. The situation escalated when Ryan Williams posted on Instagram, leaving Crimson Tide fans with even more questions.
Williams and the top star share a close friendship, both being highly sought-after five-star recruits in last year’s class and co-hosts of the New Wave Podcast. While Williams could simply be showing support for his friend as he leaves the program, his Instagram post, including the phrase “Bingo we got action,” raises more questions. This phrase originates from the 2002 comedy Friday After Next, starring Ice Cube and Mike Epps, and was later used in rapper Bossman Dlow’s song “Sportscenter.” It’s likely that Williams picked it up from there, but the cryptic message still leaves room for interpretation.
Is he just supporting Mbakwe, or is he hinting that he might be following his friend out of Alabama, sparking a doomsday scenario for Crimson Tide fans? Or maybe it’s just a 17-year-old doing what 17-year-olds do on social media. Either way, the portal activity surrounding Alabama is already creating buzz, and it’s bound to get even more intriguing in the coming days.
