Nebraska Football: Keith Williams Pleads No Contest; Gets 30 Days Jail

Williams pleaded no contest to his third DUI offense Wednesday afternoon and was sentenced to 30 days in jail, three years probation and a $1,000 fine.

The Nebraska football coach does have the option of serving the jail time under house arrest. The attending prosecutors requested that not be an available request considering he didn’t serve jail time after two previous convictions in California.

Williams’ driver’s license has been revoked for a five-year period and he will only be able to drive with an ignition interlock.

According to the Lincoln Journal Star, Williams does have plenty of time to request a house arrest sentence:

…Lancaster County Judge Thomas Zimmerman gave Williams time to apply for house arrest before he reports for jail March 3.
