Gus Malzahn should bring former Tiger James Willis back to Auburn
Life occasionally presents you with rare twists of fate. Taking advantage of them can provide opportunities for benefit never imagined.
Such is the case for Gus Malzahn with the New Orleans Saints firing five assistants, among them James Willis.
Willis served as a Saints’ defensive assistant, specializing in linebackers. Auburn fans will remember Willis, a Huntsville, Ala., native, as a 1992 All-SEC linebacker and member of the Tigers all-decade team of the 1990s.
