Bishop Caldwell and Kordell Williams grew up playing football in Temple, but they didn’t know one another until their freshman year of high school.

Now senior standouts and two-year starters for the Wildcats, they often can be found competing against each other on the practice field — the 6-foot-3, 230-pound Caldwell at defensive end and the 6-1, 285-pound Williams at left offensive tackle.
