If the Professor is struggling to come up with something, he might like to try this:
We could borrow some technology from the ancient Egyptians.
Place a prefabricated concrete slab on the sea floor.
At it's centre is a raised attachment point for the tether.
Build a pyramid out of sand or gravel filled geosynthetic textile bags covering the entire base of the structure, up to the height of the attachment point.
If you are having trouble understanding the concept, visualize the below image with a tethered buoy attached to the apex.
