Willis was exciting to watch this year. May he improve next year and develop into a huge threat that teams will not be able to stop

I hope so too. Hes going to be our difference maker. Now if we could establish a run game, this offense will be solid.

congratulations to Justin, and I think with a healthy Demyron, that run game could improve. but alot of that will fall on the o-line, just like with every team.

Was this a slam-dunk, or WHAT?
Congratulations, Justin! You had a terrific year, and this honor was very much deserved.
Here's to a bigger and better sophomore year, and then a better junior and senior year. Tear 'em up!

Congratulations, Mr. Willis. A 67% completion percentage. Over 180 yards average passing per game. You earned it in spite of distraction.
Looking forward to you breaking every QB record in SMUs books!!

Congrats Justin - you are a fun player to watch. I think next year's playbook should have one play - Justin scrambles and throws a touchdown.
