The Miami football program dismissed safety Avantae Williams on Thursday hours after he was arrested for domestic violence on his pregnant ex-girlfriend. Williams was originally suspended indefinitely on Thursday morning. The argument occurred after Williams asked her to pack her things and move out of their apartment.
An ESPN report stated Williams and the ex-girlfriend had been living together for four months. The dismissal of Williams occurs before he ever played a down for Miami. Williams surprisingly signed with Miami in the Class of 2020 when nearly every projection predicted he would sign with Florida.
