Love for WILLIAMS

[planohog78]

How about some love for Jonathan Williams. Seems like he only gets talked about as a afterthought in a alex collins thread. He could have had 100 yards in the Alabama game and no doubt would have scored on that last pass had Landon collins not made that great play. All i ever see is collins this and collins that.....how about some Williams threads.

[PonderinHog]

He runs hard.

[Hogpkins]

Love JWill!

[Kevin]

love how he plays. love how he represents himself, and the university

[Hogpkins]

love how he plays. love how he represents himself, and the university

Yep yep. Just an all-around great player and person.

[Dropkick]

One of my favorite players. Our other RBs could learn a lot from him, on and off the field.

[Capt. Hamm]

Best back on the team!

Well said.  He's our most reliable back.  Collins' head is not always in the game.

[trashcan maN]

Hes clearly our best offensive player this year. Hope hes back next year

[Squints Pallaboarus]

I've liked this guy since he committed to the Hogs. He his a hard, determined runner. More importantly, he seems to be a high character guy.

My fiance loves this guy, and she's a good judge of character. She picked me after all! Lol.

[Horsesrus]

My daughter has nothing but good things to say about JWill.  She's had a few classes with him and he appeared at a charity event for her sorority on his bye week.  He's a good student, athlete and even better person.

[secneahog]

Jwill is a great back.

[HOGINTENNESSEE]

He is mentally locked in the game. I would give him 75% of the carries right now

[razorsharptusk]

NFL bound.  He runs with a purpose.

[Tejano Jawg]

Afterthought?...not from me. He's been my favorite back since he started getting full-time duty. He's amazing and has it all--speed, power, moves, allusiveness, and DRIVE.

[tophawg19]

as soon as he committed he went to work recruiting . Ultimate team player . he will be missed when his time is done here . He is what you wish the other 2 were . I like Collins and Marshall but both better get their heads straight or CBB  will move on

[Sooie71923]

Best RB since DMAC

[Bacon_Bitz]

I hope he sticks around for his senior year.  He's fun to watch, never lacks for effort, that's for sure.

[FelixJonesorDMAC?]

He is a beast and will be in the league

[urkillnmesmalls]

He deserves more credit.  He's runs tough and is durable.  Those are attributes that the NFL is looking for.  The only good news is that RB's are becoming more of a commodity in the NFL in recent years, and very few go in the early rounds anymore.  Maybe that increases the prospects that he'll come back for his Sr. year and possibly do something really special and see if maybe he can improve his draft stock. 

Either way...the kid is out there every week fighting for every inch, and it's impressive.  How easy would it be to mail it in after all he's been through? 

[PorcineSublime]

Never agree with promoting one player over another, but if you need a tough two yards, you hand it to JWill. That doesn't mean that Alex is not an amazing player as well. It isn't really an either or thing since we have them both.

[Prestworthy]

Huge JWill fan.  Love his enthusiasm and toughness.  Seems to play hard and work hard off the field.

[Rzbakfromwaybak]

J Williams......is our best RB.  Wished his eligibility would never run out.  If he has a clone, hope our coaches sign him...

[chuggs33]

I love a physical running back and he fits the bill.   :razorback:

[Danny J]

NFL bound.  He runs with a purpose.

Yeah....he will certainly have a chance at the next level. He runs really hard, can catch the ball and has great character.

[urkillnmesmalls]

That's right.  They have different styles, and that's a good thing.  Both are exceptional, and I hope we can get back to running it more effectively as the season progresses. 

[TNhawgfan]

I wish jwill would get more carries and ac less. Give collins some carries when jwill is tired or we're in the red zone, but other than that, feed your best back

[Hogsmo Kramer]

He has proved this year he's the best back we have.

He plays his guts out and is always dialed in.

His physical skills are awesome but what he's got between the ears is equally as impressive. Hell of a FB player.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Parents, tell your kids to watch JWill.

[BatesvilleHOG]

JWill is the kind of person you'd point your kids to hoping they begin to look up to them. He is my favorite Razorback.

[PorkRinds]

Someone hasn't been watching the last couple of games.  But I disagree.  Sure, give Williams more because he's been working harder.  But AC needs more carries to get out of his slump, and if for no other reason, to keep JWill healthy.

[DeltaBoy]

Feed him the Rock he's doing a good job.

[DeltaHog82]

Glad to have him in a hog uniform. Hope he hangs around for his senior year!

I'm guilty. Too little appreciation for this cat.

Best attribute, he's a very mature person and player. Hard worker. Super talented. Could have easily pouted when Collins came on board, but has been the steady leader of that unit. Kudos Jonathan!

[Wild Boarnado]

Great attitude, great running back, definitely makes a positive impact on and off the field. I hope he stays with us next year but if he moves on to the NFL I'll be cheering him on.

[1highhog]

Hes clearly our best offensive player this year. Hope hes back next year

JWill's gonna be making some coin after this season, I think he makes and NFL team with his hard running and hard work, it's sure paid off for us these last two seasons, best RB on the team bar none.  The NFL will take him even if it's free agency, and he'll earn a spot, he doesn't fumble, which is so damn hard to believe the way he runs in traffic and pushes the pile, he'll get paid for sure.

[DBcooper]

JWill is a monster he runs hard and always leaves everything on the field. I just wish Collins would show up to play every game.

[deedster84]

I was sitting next to the Georgia fans during the game and overheard a couple guys talking about that "fullback" we had that was running over them. I told them that was option 1A not our fullback. They had high praise for the way he ran so hard.

[jtw732]

Hes our best back I dont care what stats say. Most of collins numbers have come off big plays. Jwill grinds to get his numbers. I feel like collins has a big head this year, he moves more east and west than north and south. He needs to put his head down and hit the hole more and stop worrying about busting one open and just gettong what yards he can get.

[alohawg]

Best back on the team!

He really is and definitely the go to guy in a bind. I still wish he had gotten that last carry in o.t. .against the ags.

[Hawgzinbowlz]

JWs mature leadership is much appreciated.

He lines up and goes to work.

He gets it.

" GO HOGS "

[hoglady]

Best back on the team!

I'm with you.
He doesn't have that big personality that Collins has.
He's just a quiet guy who does a great job on the field.

[hoglady]

Hope he stays another year.
We'll NEED him next year. If he leaves that will hurt big time.

[rusvegashog]

JWill's my dude(I'm on record saying as such) and I appreciate the intended purpose of this thread, but it inevitably turns into a slight of the other guys and that's not constructive or fair to anyone. We're gonna need all three and I suspect that they'll be games that each one looks like the better back.

[dynastyhog]

Work out of the "slump" in practice.  Give it to the hot hand on gamedays.  I love AC but JWill is our best back right now and has been all season.

[OneTuskOverTheLine™]

Best back on the team!

this...

[MuskogeeHogFan]

Hope he stays another year.

He isn't going to leave, he needs to have a bigger, more productive season before jumping to the NFL. Not to change the subject, but I think that all of the RB's might benefit if we saw more offensive sets with 2 RB's. Not knowing who is going to get the ball, not knowing where they are going, can't do anything but help the RB's production and quite possibly, our offensive output in both passing and running.

[ChicoHog]

I hope he stays.  We need him next year.  JW is much more of an NFL back IMO than collins.  I think he may be the MVP of this team.

I'm not sure about this one.  I just looked his stats up and he has 122 carries for 830 yards with 10 touchdowns, and this is against the toughest schedule in the country.  There are four games left and Jwill at his current pace could end up with about 1200 plus yards and about 15 touchdowns.  I'm hoping he comes back so we can win more next year, but there isn't much more he could prove individually.

[hogdoc97]

No doubt he is our best back. As a matter of fact, I heard that superman wears JWill pajamas and that the boogie man checks his closet at night for JWill. He deserves recognition and credit more than he is getting.
