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.
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.
how does he do for them?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:how does he do for them?
He was only 18. We all made mistakes at that age. I know I made plenty.Unfortunately my memory of Boom Williams is dominated by his pouting and quitting the team then unquitting, then leaving early to go pro when he hadn't a snowball's chance in hell of making the NFL
I did not realize that. That is a great potential trivial question! For both UK and UL fans , lol .Yep, he's still playing arena football for the Jacksonville Sharks.

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
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 😅I remember the First play in the new CWS. Amazing moment!

Almost as athletic as the play made against Florida by David Jones under Coach Brooks.
I’d nearly forgotten that one.
Reversed field two/three times, and dove down near the goal line, as I recall.
I thought Booms Dad was a riot, I guess some didn't. I spoke to him on several occasions at the game, he was easy to pick out of a crowd!
