  Draft Scout by Conference









  Back in Lawrence to show off his speed, footwork and more, former Jayhawks running back Pooka Williams returned to the Kansas football spotlight on Friday, more than four months after he opted out the 2020 season. Williams clocked a 4.38 40-yard dash at KU's pro day, displaying some of the velocity that helped him stand out during his 26 career games with the Jayhawks. "I was happy about the whole thing really," Williams told reporters on a video call following the closed event. "Just performed well, and was being myself for real."

One of KU's most talented skill players in recent memory, Williams, a preseason All-Big 12 running back in 2020, announced four games into the 10-game schedule he would opt out of the season. Speaking with media members for the first time since then, Williams, who announced in December his plans to turn pro and leave KU, said he didn't think his time away from practicing and playing in games from mid-October through early December would hurt him heading into this year's NFL Draft. "Nah. If it does hurt me, once I get in there I'll just prove myself again," Williams declared. - Lawrence Journal World
