‘I’m going to let my tape speak for itself’: Hurricanes freshman safety James Williams ready for more after impressing in first start

When Miami Hurricanes safety James Williams got the first takeaway of his college career versus Central Connecticut State on Saturday, he created a moment UM fans likely won’t forget for a while and hope to see for years to come.

As soon as Williams, a former five-star prospect out of American Heritage Plantation, hauled in his interception during the third quarter against the Blue Devils, the freshman safety ran over to Leonard Taylor, a fellow former five-star prospect out of Miami Palmetto, with both Taylor and Williams jumping in the air for an embrace between Miami’s highest-rated players from its 2021 recruiting class.
