White Chocolate was going wild while his daughter is embroiled in some college softball drama.
Mia Williams, who played softball for the Florida Gators from 2024-25 before transferring to Texas Tech this season, left some bad blood behind.
It came to a head during the College World Series at the Gainesville Super Regional.
Her father, Jason, who attended Florida University in college, was ejected from the stadium during the first game of a three-game series. His daughter was hit by five pitches in the series.
Florida Ace, Keagan Rothrock, hit Mia twice with pitches, while her father, Greg, appeared to get into a confrontation with Texas Tech fans, WRUF ESPN reported.
Jason was eventually allowed back, but Rothrock was not allowed to re-enter.
Mia hit the go-ahead home run in the eighth inning to win the first game 10-8 for the Red Raiders, while also being hit by two pitches.
The Gators hit Mia twice again in Game 2 and cruised to a 10-2 victory on Saturday.
In Game 3, Texas Tech was down 4-3 in the second inning when Mia hit a bomb to dead center field, which gave the Red Raiders a 5-4 advantage that they would not relinquish.
Mia bat-flipped to celebrate the home run, as they continued to talk trash as Texas Tech won 16-7 to advance to the College World Series.
Jason appeared to yell at the Florida dugout and sarcastically do the Gator chomp.
During the deciding game, the Florida Gators manager, Tim Walton, was thrown out as tempers boiled over with fans, players and coaches.
“It makes no sense to me at all,” Walton said after Game 3 when asked whether there was any intent with hitting Mia with the first pitch of the game in both Game 1 and Game 3. “There’s no place for it at all. There’s never been a problem ever, kids transfer all the time,” Walton added.
After Game 3, Jason, the NBA legend and fan favorite during the late 90s, was allowed on the field and gave a postgame speech to the team despite not being a coach, stirring the anger of Florida parents and fans.
“When they did pitch to her, she took the challenge and hit it out,” Texas Tech coach Gerry Glasco said of Mia. “She won every battle that was thrown her way.”
Mia understood the problems facing her going into the series.
“I just told my team, coming into this weekend, first of all, that they need to have my back. Every other weekend they have my back, but especially this weekend,” Mia said postgame.
Mia’s mother added fuel to the fire on Facebook, saying that Florida needs to stop adding shortstops and acquire better pitchers, WRUF added.
Texas Tech, which lost to Texas in the championship last year, now heads into the College World Series after an impressive 57-7 overall record, where it will now face Mississippi State.
