Nice find....I liked the part where they mentioned Willis ran a similar style of offense in high school, which is probably why he looked relaxed in the spring scrimmage. Granted he still has a lot to learn but is off to a good start.
I watched several Denton Ryan games that he played in, and saw both games when they played "Southlake U" 2 years ago. Both Willis and Southlake QB Chase Daniel (who's starting for Mizzou this year), were excellent at reading the defense, calling audibles, going to their 2nd or 3rd reads, etc. that showed maturity beyond their years. In high school they both ran the line of scrimmage like Manning does in the pros, it was very impressive to watch.
