Florida State defensive end transfer James Williams is gearing up to make a statement in his first season with the Seminoles, starting with their season opener against Alabama. After transferring from Nebraska, Williams is eager to help restore Florida State to its former glory following a tough 2-10 season.
Williams is excited about the challenges ahead, including tough matchups with Miami, Clemson, and Florida during the regular season. He’s determined to showcase his skills against the best, including Alabama. However, he also made headlines with some bold words about Wake Forest, calling them less of a threat compared to the bigger opponents on the schedule. “I’m not just here to be a recruiting face for you guys, I’m here to dominate against Alabama,” Williams declared. “I want to make sure I’m not just good against Wake Forest.”
Interestingly, the Seminoles have struggled against Wake Forest recently, losing three of their last four meetings. This bold statement could come back to haunt Williams when the teams meet again on November 1st.
Williams, who recorded five sacks during his 2024 season at Nebraska, is looking to make an immediate impact at Florida State. While his comments may have drawn attention, both Alabama and Wake Forest are likely to have a target on his back when he hits the field next season.
