Yep, as stated above, not asking if youre confident he'll be ridiculously good

I'm also not asking if our offense overall will be really good. Just the QB position. QB can make great reads, great throws and if the WRs don't pull through, it's not on the QB. That's what I was getting at.

As I previously suspected, the poll is showing that the vast majority of our fanbase is confident in Tanner. Not too concerned about the contrarians and I'm sure Tanner isn't either.

POLL: Are you confident in Tanner Mangum's abilities at QB?

Not sure if it is Mangum, or just Detmer's offense, but last year's offense did

Since Mangum didn't play much last year

Is that because you were watching Taysom Hill instead?

Last years offense did what it was supposed to; didn't throw away the games

I'm confident in his abilities but he is overhyped bc of the two hail Mary's.

Just as I suspected..the VAST majority of us are confident in our starting QB.

I am confident in Tanner as a qb, but not confident in how the team will perform

Yep that's a fair assessment.

If the QB is on point then he will make the WR & OL group look better...

I don't know why CB is so full of "based on last year" posts.

5/28/17 6:16pm

we don't have much else to go off of for Ty Detmer's offense. It doesn't mean we

It means you can try to consider normal factors in the game of football

I'm confident that he will not suck. He's already proven to be good. He hasn't

He should have a solid defense to help.

Yes but that doesn't mean Heisman

Havent seen anybody insinuate that either

You missed it then cause he ended up in a random preseason list for Heisman

From a purely football side, it appears he may have cost himself a career

If the question is "are you confident," the answer is no. If you ask

Who said anything about ridiculously good?

5/28/17 6:26pm

True. It's probably more semantics with the meaning I attach to the word.

Machiavelli

In that definition, yes I'm confident he'll get the job done
