Looks like WVU has decided to pull the scholarship offer to Running Back Raymond Williams. This comes on the heels of his arrest and accusations of robbery and murder.

I expect Williams to eventually end up at Division II or some I-AA school. He will set all sorts of records, and be considered a medium to high draft pick, and then ESPN will do some story on his fall and rise.

UPDATE: Make that 15 years. It appears from reports Williams and another have confessed to the actions

Two Benedictine High School football stars have confessed to taking part in a botched robbery that left a teammate dead and will beg for the state’s mercy, a lawyer for one of them says.

City prosecutors filed murder and aggravated-robbery charges Wednesday against Raymond Williams, who won Ohio’s Mr. Football honor last year as the state’s outstanding prep star, and Jon Huddleston, a defensive back on the state-champion team. If convicted, the Cleveland teens would face at least 15 years to life in prison.
Police say the two and 16-year-old Lorenzo Hunter tried to rob a 20-year-old man with a fake gun around 2 a.m. April 16, only to see the intended victim pull a gun, fire and kill Lorenzo as Huddleston and Williams ran.

Pat D’Angelo, Huddleston’s lawyer, said both youths spoke with Benedictine counselors, then agreed to give police oral and written statements without attorneys present.

“They made statements to investigators that expose themselves to liability,” D’Angelo said Wednesday. “We’re contrite, remorseful and saddened that someone died.”

‘Angelo said he reviewed statements from both defendants and understands that Williams brandished the phony gun during the stickup of Rodney Roberts near East 124th Street and Craven Avenue.
