Williams, who won the prestigious award last season after leading Class 6A Saraland to its first-ever state title, has another outstanding season to become the first consecutive winner in the award's 42-year history.

He was also the first sophomore in history to win the award last season at just 15 years old.

Many notable stars have won the award, from JaMarcus Russell to Julio Jones to Bo Nix to Kool-Aid McKinstry, but Williams is the first player to win twice.
