Boo Williams

[yraciv]

Right now on ESPN special about Seau.  Contemplated suicide in 2010.  Slept under a railroad track for 2 days before laying down on the tracks, but thankfully he didn't go through with it.  This was the first I've heard of this. Sad!

My understanding is he was in a lot of pain those last few years.  I think his emotional and mental state were eroding as well.

Boo was on the tracks.  Seau took his own life 3 years ago.  The piece was just talking about mental issues like that in NFL athletes, and Boo was one they interviewed who overcame it.

Not good.

I took an art studio class  with him and about 5 other students about 15 years ago.  Seemed like a pretty good dude. Couldn't draw very good, but a good dude.

He was on an episode of Dog The Bounty Hunter recently. He was working with some local unit working with Dog.

He now has a bounty hunter business so hopefully he's okay now.

I doubt he is reading this but Razorback nation loves him. There are some great Boo Williams memories.  There would have never been a "Stoerner to Lucas with Polyduras in motion" if it wasn't for Boo. Tennessee just took a 24-14 lead midway through the third quarter to silence the Hog crowd. Stoerner hit Boo on a pass and he out ran the Vol defender and stretched his body just over the goal line for a spectacular 39 yard touchdown to give the Hogs hopes.  He also caught a winning 79 yard pass late in the game against Boise the following year. He was our main offensive threat that year posting some good numbers. He then had a nice career with the Saints as a Tight End(another Hog who played a different position at college under Nutt).
He was and still is a True Razorback!!!!!!

I agree...

Kid was a beast. Tossed around a Boise State Defender in Litte Rock, what 2-3 times on his way to a long TD.

My dad told me he saw him on Dog, so I hope he is good now.

[ArmyOfnobunaga]

Guys like edelman will end up like Wayne chrebet.... unable to construct a proper sentence in "retirement".

Can you imagine what Welker is going to be like?  They should force him to retire.

[Pudgepork]

agree.   Welker was always fun to watch play and he was a true fighter.   However,  there isn't going to be enough pain pills to help him go through his 40's and 50's etc
