Long, rangy freshman safety with upside for Coastal Carolina
Kareem Williams enters Coastal Carolina as a 6-foot-3, 175-180-pound freshman safety from Asheville, bringing the kind of length and frame that can play big in the Sun Belt. His recruiting profile was modest, but his high school production stood out: in 2023 he posted 54 tackles, 5 tackles for loss, 2 interceptions, 2 forced fumbles, and a sack, plus a blocked field goal, showing both ball skills and disruptive instincts. The appeal here is his ceiling—if his physical tools translate, he could become a versatile, downhill defender who fits a defense that values range and special-teams grit.
