You can take the boy out of the country, but you can't take the country out of the boy. Those were the words of the NFL's top draft pick Mario Williams, who returned to his high school stomping grounds over the weekend.
A crowd of 600 people turned out at Richlands High School for "Mario Williams Day" at the high school football field. Not bad for a town of about 1,000 people, that will be keeping a close eye on Williams' career as a Houston Texan.
Williams, who owns a $54 million dollar contract with the Texans, says he's still old country and will stay that way.
