Greg Williams is one of the most popular and richest American Football Player who was born on August 1, 1959 in Greenville, Greenville, United States. Robert Gregory Williams was born in 1960 to parents “Junior” and Patsy Williams. Greg was a “service brat” living overseas until he was 13. He attended Boyd High School in Boyd, Texas, and graduated in 1978. He has two younger sisters, Ronna and Patti, and had a younger brother, Ron. In 1981 his only son Derek was born in Fort Worth. After graduating from Texas Christian University in Ft. Worth, TX, he started his career in Dallas/Fort Worth radio at WBAP-820 as co-host and show producer of popular host/columnist Randy Galloway. In the early 1990s Williams hosted a public-access television show called Sports Perspective.
On September 8, 2008, Greg Williams began hosting a show called GameNight with Choppy & Greggo on 103.3 FM ESPN in Dallas with RJ Choppy.
On December 20, KTCK was sent a “Cease and Desist” letter from Williams’ attorneys preventing the station from referencing the former co-worker in any way by name or by on-air drops. On January 10, 2008 KTCK announced that Greg Williams had “resigned” from The Ticket. Greggo, however, maintained he had been fired, and claimed the company had given him (after 13 years) one month’s severance pay.
Greg “Greggo” Williams is an American former radio personality. Williams was most recently co-host of the sports talk program RAGE (Richie and Greggo Extravaganza) with Richie Witt. It aired at 2pm-7pm on KRLD-FM, “The Fan” 105.3, in Dallas, Texas. Williams first became popular as ‘The Hammer’, Mike Rhyner’s partner on KTCK’s top-rated The Hardline drivetime show, but his tenure there ended abruptly in 2008 after 13 years on the air.
The show was an immediate hit, and remains a top-rated sports talk show in its market still. Williams and Rhyner won a national acclaimed Marconi award from their efforts. Greggo was recognized as a top ten radio sports personality in the Nation, and the Hardline was constantly #1 in Arbitron ratings Men 25-54 demographic. Williams talents helped award the Hardline the #1 slot in DFW Arbitron ratings (men 25-52 demographic) for a decade. However, William’s battle with cocaine addiction by mid-2007 led to his very sudden departure from the show (often described as “mid-syllable”).

It was also in the early 1990s that he first partnered with Mike Rhyner, with whom “Greggo” would become well known in the DFW area as co-host of the local hit radio show The Hardline. Rhyner, once “sports guy” on KZEW’s much-lauded The Morning Zoo with LaBella & Rody, launched all-sports station KTCK in 1994, taking Williams with him to co-anchor the all-important drivetime slot.
During 2007, a series of on- and off-air incidents had led to increased tension between the two hosts. On October 12, 2007, Williams was late for a live remote that The Hardline was doing that day, and did only one on-air segment before disappearing for unannounced reasons. Williams later admitted that program director Jeff Catlin had ordered him to take an immediate drug test, which Williams declined, because, as he later admitted, he “couldn’t pass it”. It was Williams’ last show on KTCK.
On May 19, 2008, Williams announced that he had been officially diagnosed with depression and is currently taking prescription drugs to fight it. A few months later, in a cover story in the Dallas Observer, Williams described the entire series of events, admitting to cocaine abuse and other difficulties.
