College career

edit

Williams was born in Beckville, Texas. After high school, he signed with rural Cisco Junior College, but soon left the school. Following a year of oil field work, he decided to walk-on to Kilgore College located in the town of Kilgore, Texas. It was here that Kilgore head coach Jimmy Rieves decided to change him from a cornerback to a linebacker, and he excelled there. Williams helped lead Kilgore to an undefeated season in 2001, and a #2 national ranking. Prior to entering the NFL, Williams played for the University of Nebraska, where he completed his degree in sociology.
