Nothing like a feisty old assistant defensive coordinator threatening to go Woody Hayes on a running back because he has been knocking opposing defensive players out.
Pretty Ricky Willams (that’s what they called him) he gotten a rep of delivering some vicious crack back blocks and Gunter Cunningham is not pleased.
“All I can say to Ricky Williams — I want him to know this — if he hits one of our DBs in the back on a crack block, then I’m coming on the field,” Cunningham said. “I mean, he’s had a couple of knockouts, but they’ve been nonlegal. I’ll just put it as that.”
Gangster.
I secretly want Williams to do a crack back just to see if Cunningham is a man of his word.
