ill have to say sammy williams.when warrick dunn was 9 yrs old and a 3rd team rb on a south baton rouge ram team.the 1st team guy was sammy williams.a straight beast.he ended up a 2 time all state wr-db from baker high back in 1990.had like 12 td from kick offs.and when baker lost to ruston 38-13 in the q-finals.sammy williams had a punt return for a td and a kick off to the 5 yard line that set up td that led to a 13-10 lead over the 1990 ruston football team.back then when all star teams mattered. he had 2 touch downs in the all star game and was the 1990 mvp.texas a&m led for his sig. but a drug addiction got him.ask around to the guys in that era and they will tell you how special he was.

ask warrick dunn about him.they had a friendship.he had it all.the moves.the swagga.baker even beat catholic that year with williams getting the best of dunn because of playing both ways in 4a which was the highest class then.sammy williams is maybe the best football player who didnt make it to the pros who should have.a ed reed clone.
