Having grown up just down the road in West Point, Aeris Williams is thankful every time he gets to pull on his maroon and white Mississippi State uniform. The redshirt freshman running back has had coaches help him along the way to becoming a part of MSU’s stable of rushers, but Williams is quick to credit one entity above all others.
“It’s exciting and it’s a blessing,” Williams said. “I just give all the glory to God and thank God for just putting me in this position.”
This season, Williams is getting his first chance to make an impact with the Bulldogs.
