Offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Ty Detmer talks with quarterback Tanner Mangum during Brigham Young University football practice in Provo on Monday, Feb. 27, 2017.
PROVO — The confluence of offensive coordinator Ty Detmer’s football acumen and junior quarterback Tanner Mangum’s arm will go a long way in determining how successful BYU’s offense is this season.
One of Mangum’s long-term goals is to play in the National Football League, and Detmer spent more than a decade at that level.
“He’s being mentored by a great one that was in league for 14 years,” coach Kalani Sitake said about Mangum.
