Former Auburn coach Pat Dye compares QB Malik Willis to Deshaun Watson
Auburn freshman Malik Willis may only be the Tigers’ third-string quarterback, but that hasn’t slowed down the hype around him.
On ESPN 97.7 The Zone on Tuesday, Pat Dye, a former Auburn coach, compared Willis to former Clemson QB Deshaun Watson.
Granted, Dye didn’t say the two were exactly the same, but does think the Auburn freshman has some of Watson’s qualities:

Considering Watson threw for 10,168 yards and 90 touchdowns during his stellar Clemson career, which he ended by winning last year’s championship, Willis has a long way to go to live up to that compliment.
This fall, Willis is third on the Auburn depth chart behind starter Jarrett Stidham and backup Sean White.
However, he earned rave reviews this summer and could challenge for playing time in the near future, especially if Stidham declares for the NFL Draft after the 2017 campaign.
every QB looks like Deshaun Watson when you’re drunk 24/7.
When you are a fool 24/7 like Sabans’ Dong you actually think your cute observations mean something. Go back to screwing your cousin.
First off the dude IS without a doubt a huge drunk. Seems like the goofball has a system in where he keeps points for all the different things he hits with his car while intoxicated. Second, it’s you’re, not your. Sorry but it isn’t my cousin I’m putting the pounding on. It’s YOUR mother, and I make her squeal like the piggy she is every time.
