TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — When it comes to University of Alabama senior linebacker Tim Williams, the question isn’t if he can be good; it’s if he can be great.
Williams has that kind of potential. Maybe not quite Derrick Thomas potential when it comes to sacks but possibly the best at Alabama since the Hall of Fame linebacker last played for the Crimson Tide in 1988.
Did you see Williams come off the edge in the SEC title game and drop Florida quarterback Treon Harris in the fourth quarter? How about in the Cotton Bowl, when he blew past Michigan State tackle Jack Conklin, who went on to be the eighth overall selection in the NFL draft?
