Ryan Williams’ extraordinary 75-yard touchdown with just over two minutes remained was the decisive score in No.
Former tennis superstar Serena Williams even jokingly remarked at how “impressive” her 17-year-old “cousin” has been doing at Alabama.
“Whether Ryan ever catches a ball again for the rest of his career, he’s already entrenched himself in Alabama tradition for that play,” Kelly told CNN.
It was when the pair reversed roles – Ryan Williams now catching passes – that Kelly, whose office was overlooking the practice field, realized the young athlete’s potential as a receiver.
And with Saraland in need of a receiver, Kelly decided to throw Williams in, a decision which ultimately paid dividends.
