"Nor would any coach" - Plenty of coaches would make this kind of promise.
Heck, plenty of coaches make these promises to high school seniors who've never played a D1 snap. It's just a part of the recruiting game.

Do you realize how many programs would love to have a 9-4 record?

That is such a simplistic view. I'm glad you're overjoyed with nine wins in 2016

No one said anything about "overjoyed".

9 win seasons are a success -- especially for a first year head coach

The OL should be more solid this year. Will be more experienced if guys come back healthy. It needs to be.

TM doesn't get enough credit for his mobility. Sure, he's not TH vs TX but very servicable for a QB.

It gets ignored because he uses it to find receivers, not to run.

Tanner always, always keeps his eyes down field when scrambling
cougarmanguy

To me, that's what scrambling for a QB should look like. Tanner won't switch to a RB mid-play but that's good.

That's why receivers got open downfield too. They knew he would throw it.

Tanner is an anticipation thrower, which you want. Taysom was a wait until

It absolutely does. It wasn't called for in the Anae 2.0 offense, so Tanner
