11 to Watch: Daryl Williams

Daryl Williams
Interim Head Football Coach
Livingstone College
SALISBURY, North Carolina — It’s been more than a decade since Livingstone College had a winning football season, but officials are hoping to change that with the promotion of Daryl Williams to interim head coach.
 
Williams, 39, replaces Elvin Williams, who was ousted at the end of this season after a 3-28 record during his three-year tenure.
 
The Blue Bears haven’t had a successful season since 1998, when they went 7-3 and won their second straight CIAA conference title.
 
Athletic Director Andre Springs has said Williams, who landed the job at the beginning of December, is the right person to get the team back on track.
 
Williams, who has been an assistant coach at Livingstone for about a year, served as associate head coach and quarterbacks coach at Texas Southern University from 2007 to 2011. The college won the Southwestern Athletic Conference championship during the 2010 season.
 
Prior to that, he was the director of football operations at Alabama State University.
 
Will he be able to lead the Blue Bears to victory?
