The Cougars recently finished their out-of-conference play with a big win against the Texas Southern Tigers. While there was no physical press conference, head coach Major Applewhite took questions on the AAC’s weekly teleconference.
He highlighted the importance of freshman Clayton Tune’s opportunity to take snaps and throw passes during the game. Tune came into the game at halftime against the Tigers and played for the majority of the half. He threw for two touchdowns while on the field.
“It’s immeasurable to get out there in a game and take real hits at real speed,” said Applewhite.
