Broncho Playbook Ep. 7: UCO Football Player David Williams III

David Williams III has been a starting safety for the University of Central Oklahoma football team for the last three years and has earned All-Conference and All-Academic honors.

Q: How has the UCO Bronchos prepared for this season?

A: “We prepared by being tough; the culture in the weight room helps. Considering what we do in the weight room translates to the field.”

Q: How does this team compare to the 2024 team?

A: “They say comparison is the thief of joy, and I personally do not think there is anything that can compare to the team, but I will say the mesh and how everyone gets along is very similar.”

Q: I’ve heard from your other teammates how fierce the practices are. Do you agree those practices set the tone for that team camaraderie?

A: “Yes, it is like that. Iron sharpens iron just like brother sharpens brother; we compete every day, and although we are all on the same team, the competitive fire does not stop.”

Q: What have you done to prepare for your last season?

A: “I know physically I can play, but mentally I have taken better precautions to strengthen my mental fortitude on the field.”
