Darrin Williams struggled for 3 Quarters. He then took got the corner for 20 yards and a TD. He got the corner again for a 50 yards and next thing you know he has 120 yards on 18 carries and a TD.
Very explosive speed, I am not sure if he will be an every down back.
I was disappointed by his body language. Several times he walked away from the huddle shaking his head and you knew before the play he wasn't getting it. 1 play he was split out wide and pulled a Randy Moss and didn't even run a route or move.
He has a teammate, Nick Perry, that is ALL World. 6'4 240 DE/OLB that can move. He is probably USC bound.

Darrin Williams can be an every down back in time, in this offense at least. He is built very well and his frame would allow him to add 10 or 15 pounds without losing his explosive ability. He is kind of like Noel Devine, lacking the otherworldly speed that is the calling card of devine, but having a bit more power. I never like to get too worried about the body lanugage that high school kids display. Chris Wells developed a reputation in Akron of being soft because of the way he acted without the ball. Its a high school kid showing emotion, that is not a bad thing.

Darrin Williams will be a great pickup for UC if he doesn't back out.
I am not a fan of kids pouting when their number isn't called

Nor am I, but it is not a big deal at all IMO.
