Father says charges stupid
ASSOCIATED press
HOUSTON—Shannon Williams, father
of one of two Texas A&M players declared
ineligible by the Southwest Conference
Thursday night, says charges against his
son are stupid-
the SWC faculty representatives had no
relevance to the alleged charges against
Jarvis.
“They kept asking questions about my
;lde
personal life,” the elder Williams said.
Williams, father of freshman Jarvis Wil
liams, was one of at least 12 witnesses to
appear before a court-ordered hearing to
give the player and his teammate Karl
Godine a chance to hear charges against
them and present their case to the SWC.
“What relation does my present family
have to do with this investigation? I went in
there prepared to answer any questions
they asked because I have nothing to hide.
Following an all-day hearing, the SWC
decided to uphold its original ruling of Feb.
15 when the league declared the players
ineligible.
“But I don’t think it is fair questioning
me about my personal life. This is very
embarrassing to the family.”
Williams, who is divorced from Jarvis’
mother and remarried, said the SWC’s in
vestigation was embarrassing to him and
his family.
The SWC accused the players, among
other things, of accepting washing
machines and dryers for tneir mothers.
“It’s like a nightmare,” Williams said. “I
don’t know the evidence, against my son
other than what I read in the media but
what they are saying is stupid.”
Williams said the questions asked him by
Williams said his ex-wife had always had
a washing machine and currently is pur
chasing one on credit.
“Just because my son goes to Texas A&M
doesn’t mean any of us can buy anything on
credit. Besides, if they were getting money
from somewhere, why buy anything on
credit. ”
