UTC running back Keon Williams runs underneath a net during practice at Scrappy Moore Field Wednesday afternoon.Six weeks of training have done Keon Williams a lot of good. So have six more weeks of good behavior.
The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga running back, who was suspended for the 2011 season, will be on the field Monday when the Mocs begin spring practice. If there’s any rust, he said, it won’t last long.
“I think all that will be gone after the first carry in practice,” said Williams, who was suspended after a marijuana possession arrest last May. “I’m ready to go, I know I am.”
Williams said he has changed a lot in his life since his arrest, including his circle of friends.
“Really, all I do is stick around the team,” he said. “You won’t see me with anybody besides the team. When I’m going out to the mall or anywhere, to the movies, you won’t see me with anyone but a girl or with the team.
