D.J. Williams earns starting nod for GSU

Grambling, LA - Doug Williams is a firm believer in picking a quarterback and sticking with him.

"I always say the quarterback," the Grambling State coach said. "During the course of a game, anything can happen, but I don't want any quarterback to go in and have to look over his shoulder. I don't think that's fair to any kid or anybody who's played that position to worry about, 'Am I going to get yanked?'"

The youngster who will not have to worry about that pressure when Grambling opens its season Saturday against Alcorn State in the Port City Classic will be Williams' son, D.J., a 6-foot-4, 193-pound freshman.

The younger Williams beat out Frank Rivers for the starting job.
