For those who did not see, Dane had himself a night for Hamilton last week. 31/37 for 442 yards, 2 TDs + 1 rushing TD. He was named CFL Top Performer of the Week

I'm very happy for Dane. He found a good team that valued what he had to offer and he is excelling. Hamilton has the best record in the CFL.
Watched the 2015 replay against OU . Dane threw every kind of pass at will ...slants, sideline fade,deep . Scored 38 points and as usual gave up 52 , but Dane looked brilliant.
It helps when you have 4 WRs who will go and get the football too. Key made All American Zach Sanchez look like a JV player trying to cover the stud HS WR. Not taking anything away from Dane because he's probably better than half the back-ups in the NFL, but completing a pass in football requires at least 2 people doing their job well on any given play. But our OL played exceptionally well that day, our RBs ran effectively enough to keep OUs D on their heels AND the OC called plays in a manner that wasn't predictable. The offense was a well-oiled machine that year.
Dane had two great years at the helm and three outstanding receivers. Against OU his passes were on the money all day long .
TU goes 12-1 and hosts the AAC Championship game where it has a chance for a NY6 bowl game.
Well, I was thinking 2016 (where we would have gone 12-1 with this defense and that offense). 2015 it is possible they could have gone 10-3 with this defense. Hard to predict. That year was a little insane where the AAC looked like the old WAC 5 hour games.
