I think a 3500 yard season is very possible

I am a bit concerned about the lack of a true #1 pass catcher

Looking at the best Cougar teams of the last decade you see Pitta, Collie, Harline

All three were (to steal a basketball term) ball dominant players. Guys who always were a threat for 100 yard receiving games

The lack of a true #1 threat through the air could stifle the offense as a whole

But nobody would take more heat for offensive woes than Mangum

Just in case you're wondering, Tanner is going to have an amazing year

I think we have some guys with the POTENTIAL to be that, but nothing is proven yet.

Assuming we play 14 games this year thats 250 yards a game

I can't remember an offseason when fans weren't really excited

I can't remember a time on CB when optimistic posts weren't countered with Debbie Downer posts.

I'm not saying you're wrong. Just keeping my expectations in check.

I hear you. I understand. But right now is the best time to NOT "keep expectations in check".

Ditto, as much as I love Detmer the offense I saw didn't do much for me

Lamentably, the Debbie's have been right

I would argue that is at least somewhat confirmation bias.

Going to a bowl is a pretty embarrassing mark to brag about.

Now, see, that's just the wrong attitude, man.

What do you think the Sagarin rating of BYU's 2016 schedule was?

Don't care.

Dude, you're giving Eeyore a run for his money. C'mon, be happy! Don't make me sing the song (nobody wants that)

Uh, last year.

I look forward to Tanner pulling a Nebraska on LSU...

6/13/17 4:06pm

Hoping he doesn't pull a Michigan against LSU so that he can at least have...

Could you expand on "He has the O-line that he needs"?

As you analyze last year's o-line performance, I think they performed better than expected

jdub

Thanks. Good points and insight. Here's to hoping.

We need to see if some of your assumptions prove true.

How are they going to lose more games than last year based on OL play when

I just haven't heard much praise about the OL and I don't

That's a very overused and misused line on CB, that he was

He just needs to prove himself against that elite Utah, Michigan, LSU types

Tanner's success will be predicated on a successful run game
