Many on this board likely remember that awful day when a Stanford RB more than ruined the career of UW player Curtis Williams.

I was there. Will never forget it. Could tell instantly that something very bad happened when the hit was made on Kerry Carter, IIRC.

Williams' death so reminds me of something I said about Kerry Carter before his freshman season. I had watched Stanford's freshman practice for a couple of days and had seen Carter up close, both his physique and his running style. A friend of mine asked me what I thought of Carter, I responded by saying, "That guy could kill somebody." It was Williams who brought that fate upon himself, however. He was a vicious hitter who liked to lead with his helmet, as he did on his final play.
