UNC Football: Ohio State transfer Antonio Williams is eligible to play in 2018

They say to always release bad news on a Friday, right?

Well, the NCAA has never been the most savvy of institutions, so they got it backwards and surprised us with some good news: Antonio Williams is eligible to play for the Heels in 2018!

The New London, N.C. junior was a four-star running back in the class of 2015, and saw snaps as a third-stringer in his first two years at Ohio State. Slated behind J.K. Dobbins and Mike Weber again this year, Williams made the decision late in the spring to return home.
