Congratulations and best wishes to Larry Williams, Jr. who starts his first season at Tennessee State University (TSU) as running backs coach for the Tigers football team.

A 1994 graduate of American High School, Williams went on to attend Florida A&M University (FAMU), where he was a two-sport student-athlete from 1994-98, earning four letters in football and track & field.

Williams's coaching experience includes stints at Miles College; Edward Waters College; Florida International University; FAMU and with the semi-pro Tallahassee Thunder.

His father is Larry Williams, Sr., president of the Miami Northwestern Alumni Association and also a passionate Florida A&M University alum, especially regarding athletics.

There will be mixed emotions in the Williams household on September 7 when TSU plays FAMU at Bragg Stadium in Tallahassee.
