One of the last of the COVID-19 era guards still playing in college basketball, Jeremiah Williams made Georgetown his fifth and final stop in a college career that dates to the fall of 2020, where the Chicago native signed with Temple, averaging 9.4 ppg in 37 starts over two seasons. His career took some unfortunate turns thereafter.

Transferring to Iowa State, Williams missed the 2022-23 season with an Achilles tear. He transferred to Illinois in May 2023 but transferred a month later to Rutgers. His arrival at Rutgers was halted by an arrest in September 2023 for gambling on college basketball games while enrolled at Iowa State. A total of 17 players across multiple ISU teams and five football staff members were charged, with Williams pleading guilty to a misdemeanor charge of underage gambling, which carried a $645 fine and a 15 game NCAA suspension for the 2023-24 season. A temporary restraining order filed by Williams was granted and allowed him to join the Scarlet Knights in February 2024, playing 12 games that season and averaging seven points per game.

Despite his prior experience, Williams served a reserve role at Georgetown for much of the 2025-26 season, where he could score with ease in one series but fall prey to a defensive lapse the next. Following K.J. Lewis' season ending injury in February 2026, Williams started the final six games of the season, averaging 12.5 points per game with five double figure outcomes, almost all from inside the arc. A 17 point effort in the opening round Big East Tournament versus DePaul was his season high.
