Troy quarterback Gunnar Watson, who said earlier this week he’ll return for his final year of eligibility next season, has blossomed under the tutelage of offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach
“He’s one of the more detailed quarterback coaches I’ve ever had,” Watson said. “He’s really in-depth in the meetings and he’s detailed all of the time. He’s helped me out a lot and he’s hard on us. I love a coach who is going to be hard on me.”

Among his top targets in that game was RaJae' Johnson, who caught four passes for 234 yards and two touchdowns. The 6-foot-4, 220-pound Johnson is a senior who transferred to Troy from UAB before this season and has been a primary target for Watson.
Troy’s offense has been picking up steam in recent weeks and appears to be peaking at the perfect time. Six of Troy’s last 10 touchdown drives have consumed less than two minutes off the clock and Troy has scored on 18 of its last 31 possessions in what’s been a good mix between the run and pass. “I’d say I was a little surprised that we did as well as we did,” Watson said. “I mean, I knew we were going to have a good team … we had everyone back basically.
