BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- On a day like so many in the friendship of Virgil Williams and Dionte McDuffy, the two were playing “Madden” at Virgil’s house last winter when McDuffy told his former Evangel teammate he was looking to transfer.McDuffy had begun his college career at South Alabama. Williams had just finished his third season at Southern.
But before Williams could begin selling McDuffy on a reunion in Baton Rouge, Williams said McDuffy’s phone rang.
“He told me it was coach Germany calling,” Williams said, referring to Southern assistant Chad Germany. “It just so happened that coach Germany called him right after he told me.”
By the time Williams returned to Southern after Christmas break, McDuffy had transferred from South Alabama and was set to join him in the SU backfield.
