The current University of Tennessee freshman and former Rivals.com four-star receiver is presently not allowed to practice after Williams' standardized test score, in this case the ACT, recently was flagged. The testing agency has granted Williams a retake of the exam, and that process is scheduled to take place early next week, no less than four sources told VolQuest.com.
For Williams, getting a special session scheduled to take the test potentially could help greatly expedite his return to the field --- as long as Williams records the necessary score. Multiple sources have said that Williams needs simply to score in the 18 range in order to be a qualifier.
Without getting a special session, which likely is to include just Williams and a proctor from the ACT service in the room, he was staring at a regularly scheduled ACT date of Sept. 12 and would have needed to be pre-registered by Friday. Anything thereafter would have required a late fee and also not a guaranteed spot for the test.
