Union College senior Willie Williams led the South defense to a 27-0 victory over the North in the 2008 East Coast Bowl on Saturday, Nov. 29, in Petersburg, Va.

In the eight-year history of the bowl game, this is only the second time the South won. It was also the first shutout in East Coast Bowl history.

Williams (Miami, Fla.) led the South defensively with 12 total tackles, two sacks and two forced fumbles.

"I knew I had to put everything out there on the line," said Williams of his performance.

The 6-foot-4, 220-pound linebacker set the Bulldogs' single-season record for tackles with 150 while also recording 19.5 tackles for a loss and 11.5 sacks.

However, Williams was not pleased with his performance in Union's season-ending loss to the University of Saint Francis (Ind.).In the first round of the NAIA Football Championship Series, Williams was limited to six total tackles in the 55-3 loss.

"(Saint Francis) was a great team, and they played a great game," Williams said. "Going against guys from Division I and II, I knew I was going up against tougher competition (at the East Coast Bowl). So, I really wanted to show what I can do."

The game featured 68 of the best Division I-FCS, II, III and NAIA players from 33 different states. All revenue generated from this event is used to award a high school student who will attend a Division I-FCS, II, III or NAIA college with financial assistance.

I certainly don't agree with everthing Ted Thompson does or doesn't do, but overall I believe he does a very good job. There are certainly a lot worst GMs. For example I thought he gave up too much to get to draft Matthews. But I also thought Wolf gave up too much to get Favre. If this turns out that well I will be ecstatic.

Williams could be huge also if it works out, agreed. He must have turned himself around or I don't think Ted Thompson would have messed with him. When you get kicked out of Miami you have to be pretty bad.

I do find it curious that we are bringing in so many WRs when we just re-signed Ruvell Martin 10 days ago.

According to NEPatriotsDraft.com , the Packers have indeed signed Willie Williams, but apparently the Packers are known for being extremely tight-lipped about UDFAs until they have them under contract. So I'm guessing we'll have to wait a few days for confirmation.

Packers
WR Andy Brodell (Iowa)
RB Tyrell Sutton (Northwestern)
WR Kole Heckendorf (North Dakota State)
TE Carson Butler (Michigan)
WR Jaron Harris (SDSU)
DE Ron Talley (Delaware)
OL Evan Detrick-Smith (Idaho State)
WR Jamarko Simmons (Western Michigan)
OG Dario Nanni (Stillman Valley)
LB Willie Williams (Union College)
P Kurt Achter (UW-Oshkosh)

The thought of our defense with Raji, Matthews, Kampmann, Harris, Woodson, and Williams is SCARY.



You screen through the WR's and put the best of the best on your PS just in case your guys start going down during the season. It only takes a couple of injuries and you will be looking at that list to bring somebody up.

There is one major danger with Kevin Greene as a coach.

He is going to hurt someone on the sideline. I can almost see it now, one of our LB's makes a sack on a 3rd and 4, comes off the field, and gets completely flattened via a head-butt from Kevin, (helmet? he don't need no friggin' helmet anymore than Al Harris needs a friggin' spleen :thumbleft: )

He is not a mere position coach--- He's an intensity coach, and I can think of no one more qualified. I got dollars to donuts that the results will be instant and very recognizable. There will be no more back-peddling silliness on his watch.
