</i><blockquote><p align=justify>LOUISIANA La. - It didn't take long for LaQuincy Williams to make up his mind.
Williams, a 6-foot-2 1/2, 260-pound defensive tackle, made his official visit to the University of Louisiana over the past weekend. On Sunday, he gave Ragin' Cajun head football coach Rickey Bustle a verbal commitment.
"I liked everything I saw," said Williams, a product of Berkner High in the Dallas area. "It felt real comfortable. I just felt it was the place to be."
Williams became the Cajuns' 21st commitment to the 2005 recruiting class, 10 days away from the Feb. 2 opening of the national letter signing period. He is the seventh Texas prep product in that commitment class and the fifth defensive lineman in the group.
Williams played both tackle and end over the last two seasons for the Berkner squad of coach Jim Ledford.
He earned first-team All-District 10-5A honors and honorable mention All-State listing at tackle as a senior, after being named second-team All-District in 9-5A at end as a junior.

"I'm more comfortable playing inside," said Williams, who has been clocked in 4.87 in the 40-yard dash. "I can play outside, but they (Berkner coaches) switched me back inside this year. UL recruited me as an inside guy."
Williams recorded 86 tackles as a senior along with seven quarterback sacks and 20 pressures. Thanks in part to those efforts, Bernker finished with an 8-4 record and won the 10-5A title. Berkner also reached the second round of the Texas 5A playoffs, marking the first back-to-back playoff appearances in school history.
"UL's defense is very similar to what we do," Williams said. "I like going after the quarterback, and I think my quickness is my strong point."
Williams, who was recruited by Cajun assistant Brian Crist, also took a visit to Texas State and had been offered by Wyoming, Miami-Ohio and Illinois State.
