I imagine Hall will have ability to keep play alive with his feet, so can wait
a hair longer than maybe the other QB's

This concerns me about Tanner

Wow, catastrophic. It doesn't matter as much where the ball is released as it

It was noted last year that his release point had changed
Greg Kite's 'stache
8/21/18 9:10am
Maybe, but release point in and of itself means little if he delivers on time
PhilPete
8/21/18 9:12am
The point isn't so much about the pros and cons of the release point
Greg Kite's 'stache
8/21/18 10:22am
Unless it does get past the line of scrimmage
Bleeding Blue
8/21/18 9:15am
There are many QB's at every level who have the dreaded "low" release point. Way

Dude was hurt a lot but played some good minutes too.

Tanner's is exceptionally low. And it does make a difference.

Good point. Even Jaren, small in stature, gets the ball up better

Apparently, doesn’t worry the coaching staff too much
2FarGone
8/21/18 9:09am
Is that why a 25 year old Senior has yet to beat out a tru fresh?
Bleeding Blue

Wilson is better than anyone expected
2FarGone
8/21/18 9:18am
Due in large part to his mechanics
Bleeding Blue
8/21/18 9:20am
You don't know that. Much more likely it's what's in his head than how he

Looks like we found our next QB coach!

Wilson said himself it’s because he graduated early and was able to

His release point has nothing to do with that.

You mean the same QB coach who never tried to fix Travis Wilson’s awful throwing

i've critical of mangum pretty much ever since he became a QB at BYU, but

All irrelevant

he is trying to needle it through a tight space on those throws. I agree it's

The QB in this video had a low release point, too

Man, I loved that team and season so much.

Such a smooth motion and release, though. Oh, man...that team was driven...

His mechanics are pretty different from his freshman season.

I like to see him quickly going through progressions. That's a big positive.
ReggaeCoug

IMO, bigger deal is presence in the pocket

It is concerning to anyone who follows FB

This is nothing new. He got some QB coaching this summer at QB Elite and they talked abou it too.
Turnpike Lane

Everyone said the same thing about Philip Rivers
kapcreations
8/21/18 9:28am
So, you learned from watching the ESPN that a QB should release the ball high?
Heavily MeDeekated
8/21/18 9:30am
You're welcome
Bleeding Blue
8/21/18 12:15pm
Watch Max Hall (winningest BYU QB) and Jo. Beck deliver the ball. Low release pt
TrueBlue58
8/21/18 9:30am
Beck's inconsistent release had the additional problem of the ball sailing

Same with Phillip Rivers and Matthew Stafford

Well at least he's not fat anymore.

Too many guys obsess about mechanics. It's what's between the ears that matters.

Watch Max Hall throw 7 TD passes v. UCLA in 2008: low release point...

Watch John Beck shred TCU in arguably his best BYU game. Low release point...

* Not as low as Tanner's.
dYrtbYkerYder
8/21/18 10:53am
It also looks to me like Tanner has lost velocity with his change in mechanics.

He has the release of a Ute QB. that’s funny. Thank Roderick.

He doesnt throw a spiral but if its caught who cares

Low release point means nothing. Plenty of excellent QB's with low releases.

I'm more concerned that his mechanics have changed over the last two weeks

The low release point doesn't concern me, but passes batted at the line do...

Honestly, I see a fairly big difference.
dYrtbYkerYder
8/21/18 12:27pm
Where? His stroke is unchanged.
PhilPete
8/22/18 2:21pm
Compare 0:18 seconds vs. 2:12. Night and day difference.

Also look at 5:12 in the second video.

Don't worry, none of these guys know what they are talking about

What I've heard is that Mangum has regained some velocity this year and that his accuracy is up
Indy Coug
8/21/18 1:57pm
Does "regained some velocity" mean that it's still down from his Freshman year?

Biggest concern about Tanner: Way too slow to release the ball.

Technically, Tanner's achille's heel last year was his actual achille's heel

Yep, it’s not just armchair coaches noticing this. Professional ones are too.
