That's awesome! Jesse could seriously be the catalyst for Alabama international recruiting, especially Down Under. We could be watching history unfold here. How cool is that?

Ha ha, such a cool story! Sounds like Jesse has big-time support back home, and Bama has some new Tide fans on board. Pretty hard-core the whole family getting a Bama tat like that...love it!

That's cute. I'm happy for them that they are getting to enjoy The University of Alabama and all the hospitality the university and people of Tuscaloosa can heap upon them.

From another article on that website:

Williams said his son dreamt of becoming a champion American footballer from his early teens.

"When I stood in front of his first game at Alabama I cried like a little baby," he said.

"Just seeing my son run out in the tunnel in front of 100,000 people - that's what he told me he would do when he was 14."

That's got to be awesome as a parent to see your kid live out a dream. I mean, there are a lot of kids that want to play D1 football, and may do, but for a kid from the other side of the globe (i've made that 15hr45 min flight from LA to Melbourne - it's a looong way) to excel at a premier institution - just like he wanted to do since he was 14. Does it get better than that for a parent?

Sis-in-law and hubby live in Sydney, and he is big into Australian football. He watched the game there - he said it was awesome, and Jesse has a big following in Sydney as well.
Guess I'm gonna have to send them some championship apparel......

:iagree:

Jesse's family and friends 'Down Under', are definitely spreading the news about Alabama Football.

I don't have a 'TAT', but if I did, I would have considered
a script 'A' myself... :BigA: RTR...
