Being coach's son benefits Fayetteville's Corey Williams Jr.

LITTLE ROCK — Being the son of Arkansas assistant coach Corey Williams has benefitted sophomore guard Corey Williams Jr. on and off the court.

Williams, 6-2, 169 pounds, came to Fayetteville by way of Deland, Florida, where his father was the head coach of Stetson University for six seasons.

“I think my IQ as a basketball player increases a whole bunch because we’re in the same house,” Williams said. “I can pick his brain or talk to him whenever I want or if I have a question.”

He’s improved his game after spending time with Fayetteville coach Brad Stamps and assistant Ronnie Brewer Jr.
