Just my opinion.
But I think June Jones wants a QB to be faithful to the system instead of freelancing so much of the time.
This is a discipline thing. I think JW is our most talented QB but if he is not staying with the progressions, the timing and the reads and bailing out more an improvising, then his style won't fit June's system. I think -- without having seen a practice -- is what's going on here.

You didn't read my post. I'm going by track history of June's quarterbacks and Justin's track record. I drew my own conclusion. Am I right? I have no idea.
I don't really care if I'm right or wrong. Just giving an opinion.

"Justin's track record" as you call it was largely the result of an offensive scheme designed by Bennett&Co that did not protect the quarterback sufficiently and usually instructed him to run if his first read was covered. I don't think Jones will judge him based on the fact that he spent so much time running for his life.

I have been saying I had a feeling it would not be Willis since before practice started.

careful, counselor. This "feeling" of which you speak sounds suspiciously like an expectation as to whom the QB may or may be.

A common misconception..."no expectations" is a philosophy limited to wins and losses, not other matters. So rest easy, friend.

Since we are all patting ourselves on the back, I questioned whether Willis would be the starter in January.

Not asking whether you are right or wrong, I am tring to understand better the evidence that lead to your opinion.

In that case, I predicted Bennett would not be the coach 2 years before it happened.
