Navy football fans learned the answer to one lingering question when quarterback Tyger Goslin trotted onto the field to lead the offense for the opening possession of Saturday night’s game against Memphis.
That ended three weeks of intrigue regarding whether Goslin or Dalen Morris would get the call when the Midshipmen played for the first time in nearly a month.
Of course, the larger question was whether whoever played quarterback could operate Navy’s triple-option offense as designed.
Goslin did not provide the spark the coaching staff was looking for in a 10-7 loss, leading Navy to only one touchdown before being replaced by freshman Xavier Arline late in the third quarter.
