JIMMIE WILLIAMS - FURMAN

Williams has made an impact at Furman in two seasons. The Paladins turned in a school record for victories for a second consecutive season after they posted a 25-7 overall record and a 15-3 Southern Conference mark in 2019-20. The first season in Greenville, SC was also very successful as the team won 25 games, received the school's first ever national ranking in the Associated Press Top 25, and a berth in the National Invitation Tournament. Williams spent three seasons at William Jewell College before coming to Furman. While there, he helped turnaround a program in his third and final year by winning 20 games and securing a No. 20 national ranking, which was a first for the school since moving to NCAA Division II. Prior to William Jewell, the Olathe, KS native spent four seasons at North Greenville where he helped guide the Crusaders to their first Conference Carolinas title and NCAA Division II Tournament appearance after posting a school-record 22 wins.
