SEATTLE (AP) — Barring injury, there’s no debating who Washington’s next quarterback will be — and it’s one coach Jedd Fisch has thought highly of for a long time.
Sophomore Demond Williams Jr., who appeared in 13 games for the Huskies as a freshman and completed over 78% of his passes, initially enrolled at Arizona when Fisch was still running the show in Tucson. As Washington wraps up spring practice with its annual scrimmage on Friday night, it has become clear to Fisch that Williams isn’t just the undisputed playcaller.
“He’s certainly evolved as a leader,” Fisch said.
