16th Season
Curt Williams is in his 16th season at Davidson and his second in charge of the Wildcat running backs. He previously spent much of his career at Davidson coaching the linebackers.
The Davidson running backs helped the Wildcat offense average 357.1 yards per game in 2011, an improvement of nearly 70 yards from 2010.
In 2006, Williams helped coach a defense that tied for second in the PFL in sacks with 22, and inside linebacker Chris Castillo ranked eighth in the league with 67 tackles.
In 2007, Peter Bakke ranked eighth in the PFL in tackles and posted 20 stops at Butler, which tied for the seventh-most in an FCS game that season. Bakke went on to earn second-team All-PFL honors.
In 2008, Tyler Lemons was named second-team All-PFL after ranking second in the league in tackles by linebackers and tying for second overall in forced fumbles, and Daniel Astrop earned Honorable Mention All-PFL honors in 2009 and 2010.
In his first nine years with Davidson, Williams coached a variety of positions on the defensive side of the ball and coached the linebackers in 1998 on one of the Wildcats’ best defensive teams ever. That squad finished second in FCS in scoring defense at 10.4 points per game and fourth in total defense, allowing just 231.9 yards per contest. In 1999, the defense led FCS in interceptions with 28 and was 13th in rushing defense, allowing 101 yards per game.
