LB Kourt Williams II (Official Thread)

[brodybuck21]

Ronnie Hickman and Josh Proctor led the way at safety. Lathan Ransom and Kourt Williams also mixed in for some first-team reps but ran primarily with the second-team defense.

Players who took first-team reps with the punting unit included Mitch Rossi, Mitchell, Eichenberg, Chambers, Xavier Johnson, Kourt Williams, Fleming, Smith-Njigba, Gee Scott Jr., Cade Stover and Bennett Christian.

S KOURT WILLIAMS
Even if Josh Proctor locks down Knowles’ starting bandit position, as evidenced by most of the practice reps we saw this preseason, Kourt Williams will likely play an integral role for the back end of the Buckeye defense in 2022. At 6-foot-1, 220 pounds, Williams possesses the type of hybrid build that could make him an ideal run-stopping safety when the Buckeyes match up with two-tight end sets and run-heavy attacks. With teams like Notre Dame and Wisconsin on the schedule this season, that won’t be an ancillary need for Ohio State.

A first-time captain in 2022, Williams will make a mark on the field and in the locker room.

One Buckeye who will not play against Iowa, however, is Kourt Williams. The redshirt sophomore safety, who played only sparingly on defense in the first half of the season but has been a regular on special teams, was seen wearing a sling on his arm after Wednesday’s practice and is out indefinitely with what Day described Thursday as “a long-term injury.”

“Not sure exactly when he'll be back,” Day said.

Talking about his position change to LB and dealing with all his injuries he says “I’m going to ride this thing till tne wheels fall off”

Hell yeah man. Love this.

Kid can't catch a break.

 

[dragurd]

Damn it man. I thought we agreed to play this year with injuries off after last year

 

[scarletngray]

Kourt is the Kamryn Baab of our Defense. Great guy, great leader, great talent, but can't catch a break.

 

[OHSportsFan]

Blah. The 2 posts before - graduated and overcoming injuries “til the wheels fall off”…

Had the right attitude but the body/wheels are falling off. Not fair to the young man but hope he continues to rally.

 

[RB07OSU]

Shit, poor kid catches zero breaks. Glad he has his degree and he will be a positive influence in the locker room this season. As said above, Babb of the defense seems to be an apt analogy, I hope he gets a moment to shine like he did but it is looking doubtful after this injury.

What awful news, just couldn’t stay healthy. Cheers to an exciting future in whatever he does.
