Williams ready to make an impact for OM Rebels
Ole Miss football coach Hugh Freeze and his staff have been searching the state and nation for athletic players who can help turn around a program that won just six games the last two years.

The 6-foot-2, 183-pound Williams picked the Rebels over West Virginia on Thursday for several reasons including the chance to make his own mark away from home.

Chris Nee, the recruiting analyst who covers the state of Florida for Rivals.com, said Ole Miss has been very active in the state again thanks to the efforts of assistant coaches Chris Kiffin, Matt Luke and Wesley McGriff.
According to Nee, McGriff has built a lot of relationships with high school coaches from his days at Miami. (July 17, 2012, Page 6)
