BYU QB Tanner Mangum Looks Like The Mortified Michigan Punter, And It Amuses Me

In doing some early prep for Cincinnati’s opponent this week, the BYU Cougars, I came across the above photo of quarterback Tanner Mangum.

At first I couldn’t place him. “Where have I seen this guy before?”, I thought to myself. But as I continued to stare creepily at his face, eventually it came to me.

By golly if Mangum doesn’t bear a striking resemblance to the Mortified Punter. You know, the infamous gif from 2011 when the Wolverines were deceptively decent in Brady Hoke’s first season in Ann Arbor.

This one.

It’s like Mangum played for Michigan for a couple of years, went on a Morman mission, then decided to use up the rest of his eligibility at BYU.
