Etowah’s Williams set to become a Gamecock

Published on: 12/19/07

Defensive tackle Elliot Williams of Etowah has committed to South Carolina.

Etowah coach Bill Stewart said Williams was attracted to the Gamecocks for multiple reasons.

“First of all, it’s definitely an SEC program,” Stewart said. “He got to go watch the South Carolina-Florida game. It didn’t work out well for South Carolina that day, but I think he really liked the big picture.

“I think he feels like he’ll be treated well there and it will be a great place for him.”

The 6-foot-6, 280-pound Williams could end up on South Carolina’s offensive line.

“He definitely fits the mold of one of those big offensive tackles with those long arms, and that may be where he ends up,” Stewart said.

“I’m not certain, but I think they’re bringing him in as a defensive lineman.”
