Jameson Williams might have an amazing end to 2022 after being selected as the No. 12 overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft by Detroit Lions. His success came from the hard work and things he achieved during college.

The Missouri native wide receiver initially started college at the Ohio State University, where he registered only three touchdowns and 15 receptions in 22 games over two seasons. But things changed after he transferred to the University of Alabama.

During his time for the Alabama Crimson Tide, he showed a new side of his gameplay, recording 79 catches for 1,572 yards and 15 touchdowns in just one season. His feats there later helped in naming him an All-American.

It’s clear that Williams did a lot of hard work to reach the level he is currently on. But there were other factors that also played a crucial part in his success. And those factors were the constant love and support from his parents and family.

Who are Jameson Williams’ parents?

Williams was raised in an athletic family. That’s right! His parents were also involved in sports, but instead of football, they were track athletes — currently retired. His father’s name is James Williams, and his mother’s name is Tianna Williams. 

It’s reported that his father initially insisted Jameson join the University of Alabama, which he later did by transferring, resulting in his playing career changing considerably.

Talking more about his parents, his father is a former Sumner High School track team member. James eventually went on to graduate from Abilene Christian University — he was also a track athlete for the university team. As of now, he reportedly works as a barber in St. Louis.

Coming over to his mother, Tianna was also a track athlete at Sumner High school, and some might say it was there where she met James. Furthermore, some reports indicate that she might have run track at UCLA.

Nick Knight Has Kept Mum About His Wife and Children

Nick Knight has gained quite a reputation in the field of cricket. 

He serves as a commentator after retiring as a cricketer in 2003. While Knight’s professional life is well-known and established, his professional life is unknown. 

He has remained mum about his personal life. As a result, there is no information about it online.

Does Nick Knight have a wife and children?

As said before, Knight’s personal life is unknown. As a result, there is no information on whether he has a wife.

It is possible that he has a wife and shares a daughter with her. Perhaps, Knight wants to keep his personal life private so he has not brought his family to the spotlight.

However, it is also possible that Knight is not married and does not have a wife and children. So, unless the commentator reveals details about his personal life, everything is mere speculation.

Nick Knight’s career in cricket

Knight is a former England cricketer and English cricket commentator. Knight, a left-handed opening batsman and excellent fielder, played 17 Tests and 100 One Day Internationals before retiring from international cricket following the 2003 World Cup. 

He was a talented cricketer from a young age. He was named the Daily Telegraph’s ‘Young Cricketer of the Year’ in 1989 and played for Brentwood Cricket Club from 1989 to 1991. 

He began his domestic career with Essex in 1991 before moving to Warwickshire four years later. He captained Warwickshire from 2003 to 2005, leading them to the County Championship title in 2004.

After retiring from first-class cricket at the end of the 2006 season, he joined the Sky Sports cricket commentary team. His first-class career ended with 16,172 runs at 44.18 and 40 hundreds. In 2004, he hit an unbroken 303 against Middlesex at Lord’s.

Knight struggled in Test cricket, scoring only one century, a 113-run performance against Pakistan at Headingley in 1996. In 1996-97, he scored 96 points against Zimbabwe in a tie game at Bulawayo. 

His method was the most evident explanation for this. He was never scared of actual fast bowling, and his footwork was often indecisive — causing him to look to back away from short deliveries at times, and his test innings regularly concluded with a catch to the slips or the wicket-keeper.

Knight was a far more successful and consistent one-day player for England. This backing away helped him score a lot of runs in one-day cricket and became something of a trademark. 

In his ODI debut in 1996, he struck a century in his second and third innings against a Pakistan bowling attack that included Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis. Knight set a world record for the longest ODI innings by a batsman when carrying his bat throughout against Pakistan in 1996. 

He was also the first Englishman to bat with his bat carried during an ODI inning. Knight was not picked for the 1999 World Cup roster and made his World Cup debut in 2003.

He played effectively in England’s dismal campaign and faced the first official delivery in cricket to cross the 100 mph mark, delivered by Shoaib Akhtar. 

Despite having an astounding career in cricket as a batsman, Knight retired and currently serves as a commentator for the sport.

Additionally, despite having a verified Instagram account, he has not shared any posts, limiting information about his family on the platform.

While the specific reasons behind his decision to keep his personal life private remain unknown, he may prefer to shield his family from unnecessary attention.

However, The Sun reported Ten Hag resided in Oldenzaal in Twente, Netherlands, with his wife and children, and the pair enjoys playing golf in their spare time. Since then, he has moved to Manchester.

Erik ten Hag’s playing career

Ten Hag had a notable playing career before transitioning to coaching. During his playing days, he played primarily as a center-back.

He represented several clubs throughout his career, including Twente, De Graafschap, RKC Waalwijk, and Utrecht, leaving his mark on Dutch football.

His association with Twente was particularly significant, as he had three separate stints with the club. It was during his time at Twente that he achieved a remarkable feat by winning the KNVB Cup in the 2000-2001 season.

Before his triumph with Twente, Ten Hag had also tasted success with De Graafschap. In the 1990-1991 season, he played a vital role in helping De Graafschap secure the Eerste Divisie title.

After a successful playing career spanning over a decade, Ten Hag decided to retire from active football in 2002 at the age of 32.

Following his tenure with Bayern Munich II, he worked as sporting director and head coach at Utrecht in 2015. 

In his first season with the club, he led Utrecht to a respectable fifth-place finish. The following season, the team secured a fourth-place finish and earned a spot in the UEFA Europa League qualifiers.

On 21 December 2017, Ten Hag was appointed as the head coach of Ajax. Under his guidance, Ajax achieved remarkable success.

On 21 April 2022, it was announced that Ten Hag would become the manager of Manchester United, commencing from the end of the 2021-2022 season. 

In his early tenure with the English club, he experienced mixed results, including a 2-1 home defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion and a 4-0 loss to Brentford. 

However, Ten Hag secured his first competitive win with a 2-1 victory against Liverpool, ending United’s winless streak against their rivals.

He continued to make his mark by leading Manchester United to a 3-0 win over Charlton Athletic in the EFL Cup, becoming the fastest United manager to reach 20 competitive wins. 

Furthermore, he guided the team to a 2-0 victory over Newcastle United, clinching the EFL Cup and securing their first trophy since 2017.

Despite these successes, Ten Hag faced a significant setback when his team suffered a record-breaking 7-0 defeat to Liverpool.

Predictions For The NBA Finals: Can The Celtics Get Their 18th Larry O’Brien Trophy?

All you need to know!

Predictions For The NBA Finals: Can The Celtics Get Their 18th Larry O'Brien Trophy?

While they were the betting favorites to win an NBA-record 18th championship for the vast majority of this season, things aren’t looking good for the Boston Celtics as they trail the Miami Heat 3-1 in their Eastern Conference Finals series.

No team has ever managed to make it back from a 0-3 series deficit, so the Celtics will need to make history in jaw-dropping fashion in order to secure a chance at their next championship. 

Game 5 tips off in Boston at 8:30 pm EDT, so we could know as soon as tonight what this year’s NBA Finals matchup will be if the Celtics aren’t able to stave off elimination for a second consecutive game.

As of right now, Caesars Sportsbook Massachusetts loves the Celtics’ chances of prevailing tonight, listing them at -320 and 8.5 point favorites to overcome the Heat, just make sure to utilize a Caesars Sportsbook Massachusetts Promo Code when placing your bets on the Celtics (or any other team or sport) to ensure you have the best chances of winning big. 

Here’s a look at how their series with the Heat has gone so far, and what could go down if they manage to advance to face the Nuggets in the Finals.

Missed opportunities marred Boston’s first two home games against Miami, as the Celtics built massive leads in the second half of both games before promptly blowing them away. It doesn’t help that Heat wing Jimmy Butler has shown his ability as one of the most clutch players (on both ends of the court) in the league today, turning into an ice-cold assassin when the game hits crunch time.

The Heat blew Boston out 128-102 in Game 3, feeding off of the energy of their home crowd and limiting Celtics’ stars Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown to just 14 and 12 points, respectively, as head coach Joe Mazzulla pulled them early with the game out of hand. 

It was the Celtics who finally kept their foot on the gas for all four quarters in Game 4, winning 116-99 behind a 33-point outing from Tatum.

Should Boston manage to do the (almost) unthinkable and come back from what was a 3-0 series deficit, it’ll be interesting to see how they respond against the Denver Nuggets. The Nuggets managed to take care of business quickly against the Los Angeles Lakers, sweeping them 4-0.

As such, if Boston managed to win their conference finals, Denver will have had more than a week-long layoff as they wait for the Celtics’ series to finish. That can go either way: right now the Nuggets have an impeccable injury report (with the exception of guard Collin Gillespie, who’s out for the season with a leg injury), so it’s not like they’ll be working their way back to a clean bill of health during the time off.

On the other hand, if Boston is banged up after coming back against Miami’s grueling defense, they could struggle against a fresh opponent. Right now, Celtics’ point guard Malcolm Brodgon is day-to-day with a partially torn tendon in his right forearm, while power forward Danilo Gallinari has been ruled out with a knee injury.

Brogdon is planning to play through the injury, as he has for this entire series, but he’s managed just two points in 35 minutes across the past two games, so it’s clear that it’s limiting his effectiveness.

While he’s an excellent sixth man when healthy, the Celtics might be better off resting him in favor of a player at full capacity, especially because Boston isn’t keeping the injury under wraps: Miami knows exactly how limited Brogdon is, and that should change how they play against him in Game 5.

Gallinari, a depth piece, hasn’t yet played a minute in a Celtics’ uniform, so his absence shouldn’t hurt the team much, if at all. 

Mazzulla will have to reach deep into his bag of tricks in his first year as a head coach in order to find a lineup that will help him come back in the series despite Brogdon’s injury.

Advertisement

Without any layoff between a potential series comeback and the beginning of the NBA Finals, it sounds like it’ll be pretty tough to get Brogdon back to full health in time to vie for a championship: tendons don’t heal overnight as bumps and bruises can. 

At the end of the day, though, the rest is a narrative written after a series ends. If the team with a long layoff wins easily, it’ll be because they had time to rest up: if they lose in disappointing fashion, pundits will claim it’s because of rust after the time off.
