MURFREESBORO, Tenn. - Middle Tennessee junior wide receiver Bobby Williams will be transferring to another school as announced today by Head Coach Rick Stockstill. Williams (6-3, 204) will have two years remaining to play one season.

"When I first arrived on campus Bobby was missing class, missing workouts, and on the verge of serious academic problems," said Stockstill. "After suspending him from the team and telling him what I expected out of players at Middle Tennessee he was given a second chance which basically saved his career.

"Over the last two years he has done everything we have asked and now he wants to forego his final year to transfer so he can catch more passes and be the focal point of the offense."

The Jacksonville, Fla., native finished his three-year Blue Raider career with 76 receptions for 864 yards and five touchdowns. Williams played in all 36 games of his career and led the team in receptions with 36 in 2006.
