South Carolina grad transfer Ty'Son Williams announces he's joining BYU's running backs

PROVO — Just like that, BYU’s running back position bolstered its experience and depth.

Ty’Son Williams, a graduate transfer from South Carolina, announced via social media Sunday that he is joining the Cougars for the 2019 season. He will be immediately eligible and will have one season remaining to play.

“I want to thank all the coaches and programs who reached out to give me an opportunity to continue my education for my last year,” Williams wrote. “With that being said I will continue my last year of eligibility at Brigham Young University.”

The 6-foot, 219-pound tailback from Sumter, South Carolina, started his career at North Carolina in 2015 before transferring to South Carolina.
