Don't be surprised to see Shaw wide receiver Williams in Mr. Football race: training camp notes

EAST CLEVELAND - Shaw senior wideout Tyrone Williams has recovered from a torn anterior cruciate knee ligament that limited him to five games last year and - you read it here first - should be a Mr. Football candidate.

If the numbers attributed to Williams are legit, and coach Rodney Brown says they are, Williams is scary good. He's listed at 6-6 and 220 pounds. Brown said he ran the 200-meter dash in 22.6 seconds and a 4x400 relay split in 48.1 this year. He caught 11 passes for 402 yards - nearly 40 yards per catch - and scored eight touchdowns in 2008.

"He has the body of an Adonis. He looks like a college senior," Brown said. "He covers a lot of ground."

Not surprisingly, Williams is coveted by a lot of colleges. Brown said the final five are Ohio State, Cincinnati, West Virginia, Kansas and Michigan State, but that could change. Akron is making a spirited run at Williams, too.
