FAYETTEVILLE — -Maleek Williams looked fantastic today. He began the day working as the first running back with the second-team offense alongside Cole Kelley. Williams broke off a pair of really nice runs, including a 42-yarder when he made a defender miss at the line of scrimmage, then stutter-stepped a defensive back to break free for an extra 15-20 yards. The thing that stands out is how hard he is to bring to the ground. In one instance, Williams broke free of a Scoota Harris arm tackle and got into the end zone. Coaches blew the play dead when Harris stood him up, but his lower body strength is so impressive.
