Sylvester Williams' career is flourishing at North Carolina
Posted Sep 11, 2012
By 6:45 every morning, Sylvester Williams is on the StairMaster, with every sweat-drenched step driving him toward a lofty place in the 2013 NFL Draft. For those who knew UNC’s star defensive tackle as a high school sophomore in Jefferson City, Mo., that’s almost impossible to believe. It’s not that Williams was a “bad kid,” but his priorities didn’t exactly include early mornings or self-discipline.
