STARKVILLE – High school football fans in North Mississippi are very familiar with Aeris Williams.
After all, the former West Point standout rushed for 3,994 yards during his prep career en route to being named Mississippi’s Gatorade Player of the Year as a senior in 2013.
Next on Williams’ agenda is introducing himself to the Southeastern Conference after his redshirt freshman season at Mississippi State. He is one of four tailbacks vying for a starting job in the Bulldogs backfield in the fall.
“I’ve gotten a lot stronger and a lot faster,” Williams said.
