Williams to miss Missouri State game       Send a link to a friend

[October 05, 2007]  NORMAL -- Illinois State defensive tackle Nick Williams will serve a one-game suspension this weekend and will not travel with the Redbird football team to Missouri State, due to a violation of team rules, according to head coach Denver Johnson.

"Our rules are standard, in that, when they're broken, our guys have to be prepared to face the repercussions," Johnson said. "Nick understands and accepts that."

Williams has played in every game this season and started the first three games of the season. He has collected six tackles on the year, including two solo stops. He has also registered a quarterback hurry.
