A Q&A with the senior linebacker
Antwione Williams • #37
Linebacker • Lovejoy, Ga.
6-3 • 245 • r-Sr.
Plans after graduation:
My plans after graduation hopefully have me taking a shot at the NFL. I already have my degree and I thought to myself "what time would be better than now to take that chance."
What is the hardest part about being a senior?
It's knowing that no matter what happens, you have to keep your composure and be a leader. Plenty of things happen on and off the field on a football team, but it's super important that your seniors are a great example at all times.
Who is your biggest inspiration and why?
My parents by far. They work hard to give me everything I ever needed and they support me completely in my endeavors.
Best advice you have ever been given:
Fatigue makes cowards of us all. You have to be in great shape to play your best.
Favorite Georgia Southern game day tradition:
Watching the people from the yellow buses. They have so much energy and there's electric enthusiasm in the air from the fans.
Most memorable moment of your career at Georgia Southern:
Playing App State in 2014 and watching the fans absolutely lose their minds as we beat them. I played in a couple of close losses to them so it was a great feeling to beat them at Paulson.
Once you're done at Southern, what do you want to be remembered as?
The first senior class to win a bowl game at Southern.
What do you want to say to the fans who have watched you play during your time at Georgia Southern?
The love I have for y'all is unmatched and the support yopu show and give is truly amazing. I will forever be an Eagle through and through.
Eagle Extras:
Favorite App: Clash of clans
Favorite TV Show: Ballers on HBO
Favorite Movie: Dark Knight
Favorite food: Spaghetti
Who would you like to have dinner with? Cam Newton
