    After beating No. 3 Kansas on Wednesday, UCF and head coach Johnny Dawkins continued making headlines on Friday.

    Four-star transfer Mikey Williams, a 6-foot-3 combo guard, announced he is transferring to UCF.

    Williams had been enrolled in online classes at Memphis and was on the roster but didn’t have access to team facilities or activities while his legal case played out in a suburban San Diego courtroom.

    Williams pleaded guilty to one felony gun charge on Nov. 30 and one of his attorneys said the 19-year-old is not expected to face jail time.
