Kendric Williams: 'A Dream Come True'

Posted Aug 21, 2007

Kendric Williams arrived at the first team meeting of the 2007 season as a walk-on 17 days ago. He left that meeting with a scholarship, a culmination of his hard work and dedication for the UNC football program the past three years. “It was really important,” Williams said. “It almost brought a tear to my eye. I didn’t want to cry in front of my teammates, but it’s something I’ve been working for since my freshman year.” (Inside Carolina)
