In three of his stops as head coach, he’s had a winning percentage of 59 percent or better. He is a two-time SEC coach of the year, winning the award after the 2019-2020 and 2022-23 seasons.
Williams’ hiring comes two days after Kevin Willard left Maryland and agreed to become Villanova’s next coach after the Terrapins’ loss to Florida in the Sweet 16.
