Marshawn “Juice” Williams

Height: 5-11
Weight: 224
Second Team 4A All-State

I was a little bit surprised with HokieSports.com listed Marshawn Williams at 224.  He was generally listed between 210 and 215 by all the recruiting services.  If he is a legit 224, that means he is Tech’s biggest back since Cedric Humes.  Humes was listed at 233 as a senior.  Darren Evans was 220 on the dot as a junior.  Both of those guys were taller than Williams (6-1 for Humes, 6-0 for Evans) which means he is packing more pounds onto a smaller frame.

Williams transferred from Hampton High School to Phoebus High school for his senior season.  I thought his senior film was much improved and showed a quicker, more athletic player.
