Eye on the Y: Classy BYU quarterback Tanner Mangum deserves playing time in his last home game

BYU’s priority Saturday night against New Mexico State will be to win the 8:15 p.m. home game and get bowl eligible. That’s a no-brainer.

The second item on the check list should be to get senior Tanner Mangum some playing time on Senior Night. The player who has given so much to the program the past four years, and experienced all kinds of ups and downs, simply deserves it.

“I would love for him to play, yeah, I hope so,” quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator Aaron Roderick said Wednesday night when asked if Mangum will get into the game.
