Avantae Williams in Jail (now dismissed from team)

[P-Tizzle]

Sounds like UM administration and Diaz had a private conversation with the State and then made their decision to dismiss him from the team and the university.

What u mean ?

JW mom was killed due to domestic violence. This ain’t gonna fly with him and what he stands for as a man and nor should it. Keeping him on the team would be beyond disrespectful to a future leader on the team and there in the same room.

Tell that to Jeffrey Simmons. Video and all.

Different times man. 2021. Simmons was in HS and back in 2016. Tae is already a grown man and a sophomore in college. He has no time.

It’s not acceptable to some of us fans and alumni either.

Hopefully he learns from this and figures it out. Sometimes the toughest lessons are the best ones.

Really? I never knew that about JW. Excellent insight, and I agree.

If he’s talented enough, he’ll play pro ball. That’s just life. Well if he doesn’t spend the next couple years in jail.

I think judge actually given the information she was presented treated him pretty fairly… lawyer’s the one that didn’t do him any favors letting Avantae talk about his ability to pay.

Right if anything once she found out he was a football player here. You can see the change if anything she helped him out as much as she could.

Huh?

Sometimes the beans don't need to be spilled. Regardless of whether he is on the team, there are other people involved in this sad situation too. For their sake, a lot of the details we don't know should probably remain that way.

He won’t play for Miami but he’ll play CFB again. He’ll get a second chance just won’t be here.

Thank you...and that is why I haven't posted more of the internal details.
Its just so sad....

 

[canesplaymaker]

My coaches will pay my bail. ******* idiot. Now he will rot in jail for awhile

 

[CaneSince4Ever]

Should've went to Floriduh, they have a reputation for sweeping $h!t like this under the rug.

He will have to go the JUCO route, IMO. Whether he makes it back to a major program is on him. He needs to make a serious life changes for one. 3 kids by 20 and you're a woman beater shows he's got some mental issues when it comes to women at the very least.

Lock thread camp opens in 2 weeks.

Time is running out... I don't see him playing a down of meaningful football ever again. Too much baggage.

Yep… could tell she was mostly just sad about the whole situation including how much he was likely losing out on because of this.

Lock it up

From ESPN:

Miami Hurricanes freshman safety Avantae Williams has been kicked off the football team after he was arrested Wednesday on domestic violence charges, the school announced.

Williams, 20, is facing three counts of aggravated battery of a pregnant person, according to Miami-Dade County records.

"The University of Miami announced Thursday that freshman safety Avantae Williams has been dismissed from the football program," the school said in a statement.

According to a Miami-Dade Police Department incident report, the woman, Williams' ex-girlfriend, is 31 weeks pregnant, and Williams was aware of the pregnancy. They have been living together for four months.

The woman, according to the report, said she and Williams were arguing about his involvement with another woman when Williams said, "When I return from practice, you need to be gone."

She was in her bedroom packing her things to leave when Williams returned from practice, the woman said. According to the report, Williams was angry that she was still in the residence, grabbed her by her hair and threw her onto the bed, grabbed her again and threw her to the ground, and then picked her up and threw her to the ground outside the residence, where she hit her head, before contacting a neighbor and calling 911.

The woman was taken to a hospital for evaluation. The report states she suffered multiple bruises to her arms and a minor bruise to her neck.

Police said Williams was not interviewed by the detective and was represented by legal counsel.
