Monday, a reporter asked him why he wanted to stay in Miami. "I'm at a point in my career where I'm looking for some kind of stability," said Williams, 31. "I'm taking classes now, so it will be easier to help with the transition to my life after football, so I'm happy to be here another year." Say what? Taking classes? "I'm just taking a math class and a writing comp, just to finish up some of my undergrad, still haven't finished my degree," Williams said. "It's just pre-algebra. I never took math when I was undergrad. I'm starting over." Why pre-algebra? "I've always been good with numbers," he said. "I want to get my degree pre-med, so you have to take calculus and a bunch of math classes. I've been out of school 10 years and so just trying to start over and get back in the swing of things." Wow, pre-med? What do you want to do? "Osteopathy," he said. "There's a college here at Nova, too. That's another reason why staying here is advantageous." Wait, you're not taking online classes? "I'm just taking classes here at Nova," he said. With other people in class? "I'm not by myself," he said, smiling. "It's an evening class, 6 to 8, but there are other people that have jobs, coming in after work, trying to finish up." Have you been recognized? "I've only been to one class," Williams said. "Teacher was looking at me, he's like, 'You look like you play football, and I was like, 'Yeah, I play football.'" "And he was like, 'For who?' And I was like, 'For the Dolphins.'" "He was like, 'What's your name?' I said, 'Williams.'" "He said, 'OK ? So how's Chad Pennington doing?'" "I was like, 'Fine,' and that was the end of it." Teacher never asked for your first name? "I'm sure he'll come back," Williams said. "Especially math teachers, they're kind of in their own little world, but I'm sure he'll figure it out." But the students must recognize you, right? "It's at Nova, so it's a lot of international students, so I think half my class is from different countries," Williams said. "It's a couple hours once a week, not a big deal. I think next semester when I'm going full time it might be more of an issue." How close are you to graduating? "Because I'm changing my major I think I have 72 credits," said Williams, an elementary education major at University of Texas a decade ago. "I have to take a bunch of science classes. I want to go to medical school. Hopefully when I'm 40 I'll be starting my next career."
