Don't see his name mentioned often anymore but I always thought he was the first in a line of all SEC type backs. He is still carrying the rock for the Jacksonville Sharks of the IFL. Really thought he would stay in the league a few years.
Boom Williams
- Thread starter Grumpyolddawg
- Start date
He was a special commitment in June of ‘14, actually the first thread I remember Grumpy’s participation was discussing former Georgia commit, Boom Williams, and this new, monster UGA commit, Nick Chubb.
I was surprised he never took a snap in the NFL.

Yep, he's still playing arena football for the Jacksonville Sharks.
One of my favorite Cats. Inventor of L's Down as well.

Looking at their box score for their last game. He didn't play, but maybe hes hurt. He posted this on June 3rd:
He seemed a little injury prone here and probably should've stayed one more year. But glad to see he's still playing. He was our first legit RB under stoops, the Benny&Boom season where each had 1k+ would've been fun if we could have thrown the ball with consistency
Having Boom took a lot of the sting of out missing on Harris.
When boom reversed field and scored against Florida was the first moment I thought UK was really heading in the right direction. He was literally as athletic as Florida and I had never seen that before. It was a moment
The run in the Florida game as a freshman was simply amazing. I knew then he would a great RB at UK.

He was only 18. We all made mistakes at that age. I know I made plenty.
I did not realize that. That is a great potential trivial question! For both UK and UL fans , lol .
Then he somehow gets ran down vs vandy after what should've been a breakaway td. I couldn't believe it
Yep what I think of when booms name is brought up. How perfect was that on the first play of the game. 😁😁😁😁. I thought we were for sure cooking 😅
