Mike Williams

At UMass

Became “Mr. Clutch” over the course of his UMass career, for hitting many game-tying and game-winning shots.
John Calipari on Williams, after the West Virginia win (1/27/95): “Anytime you have Mike Williams on your side, which we do, and it's a close game, we have a chance to win. I don't know of any player in the history of college basketball that has made bigger shots.”⁶⁾
For all the clutch shots though, the Atlantic 10 never recognized him with a Player of the Week award.
