Bethune-Cookman Commitment Named Mr. Football In Florida (http://hbcusportsonline.com/media/2011/01/bethune-cookman-commitment-named-mr-football-in-florida/)


Williams threw for over 4,300 yards passing and 52 touchdowns, while also rushing for 800 yards and eight touchdowns, leading his team to a 14-0 record and the Class 3A state championship.

Williams now owns the state record for career passing touchdowns and career passing yardage in the state of Florida.

Bethune-Cookman has taken advantage of the success this past season and really pushed hard on the recruiting trail. The Wildcats have received commitments from 3-star rated defensive back, Nick Addison of Spoto High School (Riverview, FL) and 2-star running back, Breon Allen from Warner Christian Academy (S. Daytona, FL).

Good pull. Does he have grade problems? I wonder how did the big schools miss on him?

He's listed at 5'11-6'0". I think that's why.

I saw that, but still, you would think some lower level BCS or FBS schools would have given him a flier. Especially since he is a Florida kid. He might be the next Armanti.

His mom went to BCC.

That's why he chose BCU, yes, but he didn't have any offers from a BCS school, which is why I think his size had to do with what GLS asked about why didn't a BCS school take a chance on him.

His mom went to BCC.

Sounds like a good enough reason to me... kudos to this kid and parents!

Yeah, I never said he didn't have any other offers, but clearly FIU & Towson aren't BCS schools either. I haven't seen anything about character issues anywhere, so I still believe his size was a deterrent to schools.
