'It's about time you came back': Running back Antonio Williams is finally home

Posted Nov 9, 2018
Antonio Williams is UNC’s leading rusher with 478 yards and five touchdowns. His home a 90-mile drive southwest of Chapel Hill, the bruising runner took the scenic route, but he’s finally arrived where he belongs. Williams already has carried the ball 22 more times than he did as a Buckeye. Equally important, he’s closer to one of his biggest motivations: his family. (Daily Tar Heel)
