I guess I've been taking the long way to Tarrant County.

I noticed that line, too. Whatever  he'll figure it out if/when he gets here. Bet they didn't mention what Jerry's charging to go inside that place, though.
Good find, Lotus. Thanks for posting

This isn't the same Williams who is the son of NFL assistant coach Gregg Williams, is it? I thought he was a lot bigger than this guy.

The 4.56 was at his most recent Nike event. Where did he run a 4.4? Seems like a huge jump in a short period and usually they don't run at the Nike if injured so doubt that was an issue.
Kid has some speed, no question about that, but 4.4?
