Newcomer Vets A Boost For Buffs DE Coach Williams

BOULDER — There's no doubt Colorado assistant coach Nick Williams knows the numbers.

Now the Buffaloes' defensive ends coach has to improve them.

Williams, who played at Georgia and served two seasons as a defensive analyst at Texas A&M, joined Deion "Coach Prime" Sanders' staff last winter as CU's defensive ends coach.

His task is a tall one. He takes over a unit that played a big role last season in Colorado finishing dead last in the nation last year in sacks (nine) and rushing yards allowed per game (245).

The sacks number is astounding.
