skewed by overlooking and missing the centrality of one critical fact - he's judged primarily for how we did in one year w Tanner who was (according to his own public comments) going through a mental health crisis at the time and simply could not master Ty's system. Because of his amazing frosh season he'd already been crowned and we didn't have a viable alternative - behind him -
We literally started Joe Critchlow, Beau Hoge, and Koy Jr. that year.
Meanwhile 2016 was not nearly as bad as people imagine. We averaged 28.0 PPG against one of the three toughest schedules in program history w (a) an OL patched together from duct tape and driftwood (literally two SUU transfers were starting), (b) Taysom still not being fully recovered and lacking his full foot speed.
But 2017 was a QB trainwreck and Ty's legacy gets pegged to that.
