OFFENSivE LiNEKeyed by returning All-Mountain West Conference tackles Marshall Newhouse (6-4, 320, Sr.) and Marcus Cannon (6-5, 350, Jr.), TCU returns three starters on its offensive line. Newhouse has started every game at left tackle the last two seasons. He is a cousin of former NFL fullback Robert Newhouse. Cannon, the largest member of the Frogs, made 11 starts a year ago and was dominant at right tackle in the 17-16 Poinsettia Bowl victory over Boise State. Nic Richmond (6-8, 322, Sr.), who started all 13 games at right tackle in 2007, provides veteran insurance on the line. When Cannon was sidelined for two games last season, Richmond stepped in and played well in victories over BYU and UNLV. Jeff Olson (6-4, 282, So.) and Trevius Jones (6-3, 310, RFr.) add depth at tackle. Olson has been in the program for two years, while Jones was a redshirt in his first season on campus. Left guard Kyle Dooley (6-3, 315, So.), who came to TCU as a walk-on, cracked the starting lineup last season and made four starts before a season-ending injury. Josh Vernon (6-2, 295, Jr.) enters the fall first on the depth chart at right guard. He was locked in a preseason duel a year ago for a starting job on the left side. Blaize Foltz (6-4, 310, RFr.) and zach Roth (6-5, 310, Jr.) are both in second-team positions at guard after redshirting last season. Roth came to TCU after playing two years at Garden City (Kan.) Community College. Jake Kirkpatrick (6-3, 305, Jr.) is slated to replace three-time All-MWC center Blake Schlueter. Kirkpatrick has lettered twice in a reserve role. James Fry (6-4, 285, RFr.) is No. 2 at center and will push Kirkpatrick for playing time. Spencer Thompson (6-4, 305, So.) and Tyler Marrou (6-5, 268, Sr.) provide depth.
TiGHT ENdLike the wide receivers, the tight end position does not have a senior on the depth chart but still has key players returning with valuable game experience. Evan Frosch (6-4, 260, Jr.) enters the fall in a first-team role. He started five games in 2008 and is a two-year letterman. Frosch reached the end zone twice on his 10 receptions last season. All 15 of his career catches have come in TCU victories. Logan Brock (6-3, 253, So.) lettered in his first season of competition for the Frogs and is the older brother of freshman linebacker Tanner Brock. Corey Fuller (6-5, 245, RFr.) and Walker Dille (6-4, 242, RFr.) both redshirted last year and figure prominently in the mix for playing time this fall. In addition to his role at fullback, Luke Shivers (6-0, 220, So.) will also see action at tight end.
qUARTERBAcKIn 2008, West Virginia’s Pat White became the first starting quarterback in NCAA history to win four bowl games. After just two seasons, TCU’s Andy Dalton (6-3, 215, Jr.) is halfway there. In addition to leading the Frogs to victories in the 2007 Texas Bowl and 2008 Poinsettia Bowl, Dalton earned Most Valuable Player honors in both games. With the likes of Sam Baugh and Davey O’Brien, TCU has a proud quarterback tradition. In just two seasons, Dalton has already won 19 games as a starting quarterback and is rapidly climbing the statistical charts in the Frogs’ record book. He is already second in career completions (404) and third in passing yards (4,701). A native of Katy, Texas, Dalton showed tremendous progress in his sophomore campaign. He had just five interceptions in 307 pass attempts. In one five-game stretch, Dalton had a career-long streak of 108 passes without a pick. Dalton completed 59.3 percent of his attempts on the season for 2,242 yards and 11 touchdowns. He was also very effective running the ball, placing third on TCU with 432 yards, while his eight rushing touchdowns ranked second. After being moved to safety at the beginning of spring drills, Marcus Jackson (6-1, 216, Sr.) returned to quarterback the final two weeks and will again back up Dalton. Jackson is a proven veteran. Filling in for an injured Dalton, he led TCU to victories last season over San Diego State and Colorado State. Twice during his career, Jackson has been named the Mountain West Conference’s Offensive Player of the Week. The Houston native placed fifth on TCU last year with 384 yards rushing on a 5.5 per carry mark. Yogi Gallegos (6-1, 208, RFr.) enters the fall third on the depth chart. Like Dalton in 2006, Gallegos was the Frogs’ emergency No. 3 quarterback last season. He was able to maintain his redshirt while also picking up valuable experience as a member of the Frogs’ travel squad for all road games. As a senior at Irving (Texas) High School, Gallegos completed 60.5 percent of his passes for 2,401 yards and 15 touchdowns. Casey Pachall (6-5, 204, Fr.), a four-star recruit who enrolled at TCU in January, participated in spring practice and is projected to redshirt this fall.Rated by Rivals.com as the ninth-best dual-threat quarterback in the nation, Pachall turned down scholarship offers from the likes of Florida, Notre Dame and Michigan to come to TCU.
RUNNiNG BAcKDespite the loss of standout Aaron Brown to the National Football League, TCU returns a full stable of running backs in 2009. Ryan Christian (5-11, 188, Sr.), one of the more versatile Frogs, placed second on TCU with 30 receptions out of the backfield last season. He tied a career high with six catches for 53 yards in the 17-16 Poinsettia Bowl victory over Boise State. The Aledo, Texas, native was the Frogs’ fourth-leading rusher with 386 yards and four touchdowns on a 4.2 per carry mark. He ran for a career-best 82 yards while adding four receptions in the 31-14 win versus Stanford. Christian, who also contributes on kickoff returns, was third on the Frogs in all-purpose yards (841). Joseph Turner (6-1, 225, Sr.), last year’s leading rusher with 577 yards and 11 touchdowns, was limited in the spring as he recovered from injury. Turner gives the Frogs a physical presence at tailback. His 17-yard touchdown run with 8:51 to play provided the go-ahead score in the Poinsettia Bowl. It was part of his season-high 83 yards that night. Turner is a proven commodity for TCU. As a sophomore in 2007, he had a 226-yard, four TD performance in a win at San Diego State. Veteran Chris Smith (5-11, 231, Sr.) and Jai Cavness (5-8, 175, So.) add valuable depth. Smith is a three-year letterman, while Cavness was impressive in several late-game performances a year ago. Cavness topped the 50-yard mark twice as he placed seventh on TCU with 134 yards on the season, including a pair of scoring runs. Ed Wesley (5-9, 185, RFr.), coming off a very impressive spring practice, will compete for playing time. The local product from Irving was named TCU’s 2008 Scout Team Offensive Most Valuable Player. Luke Shivers (6-0, 220, So.) will handle the fullback duties in addition to working with the tight ends. Shivers, a converted linebacker, had two carries last season with both resulting in 3-yard touchdown runs.
WidE REcEivERTCU returns all but one wide receiver from last year’s group and still has no seniors at the position. Jimmy Young (6-1, 204, Jr.), who fell just 12 yards short of a 1,000-yard season in 2008, headlines the list of returnees. A junior from Monroe, La., Young topped TCU and ranked among the Mountain West Conference leaders with 59 receptions for 988 yards. The 59 grabs nearly doubled the next-closest Frog (Ryan Christian, 30) and were the fourth-best single-season total in TCU history. The 988 yards ranked second all-time at TCU. Young’s breakout campaign was highlighted in a 54-7 win over Wyoming. He had three touchdown receptions (60, 55 and 39 yards) and totaled 226 yards receiving, the top mark in the MWC and the sixth-best total nationally in 2008. Young’s longest reception in the game – 65 yards – was actually not for a score. Young recorded four 100-yard games on the season. Bart Johnson (6-0, 195, Jr.) made five starts last season and provides the Frogs with a sure-handed receiver. He placed fifth on TCU with 15 receptions, averaging 13.7 yards per catch. Jeremy Kerley (5-10, 192, Jr.) and Antoine Hicks (6-2, 200, So.) both have big-play capability and bring excitement to the Frogs’ offense. Kerley, who had 11 receptions on the year, was instrumental in the 32-7 win over BYU. Out of the “Wild Frog” formation, he rushed for a career-high 77 yards on nine carries, including a 16-yard touchdown. He was the Frogs’ sixth-leading rusher for the season with 143 yards. Kerley was also the Mountain West Conference’s first-team return specialist, ranking 13th nationally in punt returns with a 13.9-yard average. Hicks was one of three true freshmen to see action for TCU in 2008. He came on strong at the close of the season, as five of his seven receptions on the year were in the final four games. Curtis Clay (6-1, 185, Jr.) and Alonzo Adams (6-0, 190, Jr.) both saw action in all 13 contests last year and add valuable depth. Clay totaled a career-best nine receptions. Jonathan Jones (6-4, 197, So.) and Tyler Luttrell (6-1, 210, Jr.) are other returning lettermen who will compete for playing time. Josh Boyce (5-11, 195, Fr.) is a newcomer who took part in spring practice after graduating early from Copperas Cove (Texas) High School. He totaled 42 receptions for 837 yards as a senior.

HORNEd FROG OFFENSE2009 SEASON PREviEW
TCU returns a strong nucleus from an offensive unit that set single-season school records last year for points scored (437) and touchdowns (56). The Horned Frogs were second in the Mountain West Conference and 12th nationally in team rushing at 220.2 yards per game. It was TCU’s highest rushing average since LaDainian Tomlinson’s senior year in 2000. TCU was also second in the league and 24th in the country in total offense (421.3 yards). Andy Dalton will be in his third year as the starting quarterback. TCU welcomes back three starters on the offensive line, six of its top-seven rushers from a year ago and all but one wide receiver.

dEFENSivE LiNEDefensive end Jerry Hughes (6-3, 257, Sr.) was a consensus All-American last season and a finalist for the Bronko Nagurski Trophy and Ted Hendricks Award. A senior from Sugar Land, Texas, Hughes was a tailback and kick returner in high school. He started just one game his first two seasons at TCU before exploding on the scene last fall. Hughes led the nation with 15 sacks and six forced fumbles. He also ranked in the top 10 in tackles for loss (19.5) and fumble recoveries (three). Hughes added two interceptions, including one returned for a touchdown. In the Frogs’ 32-7 win over BYU, Hughes recorded four sacks and forced two fumbles to receive multiple National Defensive Player of the Week honors. His final sack of the season came in the waning minutes of the Poinsettia Bowl to help preserve the 17-16 win over Boise State. Wayne Daniels (6-2, 250, Jr.) enters the fall as the starter at right defensive end. The Kilgore, Texas, native totaled 11 tackles last season with a sack and fumble recovery. Pushing Daniels will be Ross Forrest (6-4, 246, So.) and Braylon Broughton (6-6, 248, So.). Forrest came to TCU as a walk-on. His impressive preseason camp enabled him to play in 11 games as a true freshman. Broughton was the 2008 Preseason Mountain West Conference Freshman of the Year. Veteran Clarence Leatch (6-4, 245, Jr.) adds depth at defensive end and will vie for playing time. Kelly Griffin (6-1, 295, Jr.) came out of the spring as the starter at nose tackle. In 2007, he became the only true freshman to start in the eight-year tenure of TCU coach Gary Patterson. Griffin started all 13 games for the Frogs that campaign. Pushing Griffin will be fellow junior Henry Niutei (6-4, 300, Jr.), TCU’s 2008 Scout Team Defensive Most Valuable Player. Cory Grant (6-2, 303, Jr.) enters the fall No. 1 on the depth chart at defensive tackle. Grant has three tackles for loss, including two sacks, in his career. Jeremy Coleman (6-2, 285, RFr.) is a very promising young player who will compete for playing time. He was a redshirt in his first fall on campus.
LiNEBAcKERLost in the shadows of graduated All-MWC selections Jason Phillips and Robert Henson, Daryl Washington (6-3, 234, Sr.) will contend for postseason honors this fall. Arguably the top all-around athlete on the team, Washington placed fourth on TCU last season with 63 tackles. The Irving, Texas, native was outstanding in the 17-16 Poinsettia Bowl victory over Boise State, recording six tackles, including one for loss, and three pass breakups. He was the MWC Defensive Player of the Week for his efforts in a win at Colorado State. In 2007, Washington tied for the national lead with three punt blocks. Converted tight end Kris Gardner (6-1, 235, So.) and Greg Burks (6-1, 210, RFr.) will compete for playing time behind Washington. Gardner saw most of his 2008 action on special teams, while Burks was a redshirt. Tank Carder (6-2, 232, So.) is in a first-team position at middle linebacker. With Phillips sidelined by injury against Stephen F. Austin last season, Carder was able to gain valuable game experience. He lettered in a reserve role while also contributing on special teams. After a stellar career at Copperas Cove (Texas) High School that saw him total 693 tackles as a three-time first-team all-state selection, Tanner Brock (6-3, 227, Fr.) enrolled early at TCU and took part in spring practice. He will push Carder at the middle linebacker spot.
SAFETYThe TCU safety position will have a new look this fall as Tejay Johnson (6-1, 212, Jr.) is the lone returning starter, and he’ll be utilized in a different role. Johnson, who placed sixth on the Frogs with 47 tackles last season, will shift from weak safety to free safety. He closed last year with six solo stops in the Poinsettia Bowl win over Boise State. Alex ibiloye (6-0, 183, Jr.), a two-year letterman who has excelled on special teams, was moved from cornerback to free safety during spring drills and is No. 2 on the depth chart behind Johnson. Johnny Fobbs (6-1, 203, So.) and Chris Scott (5-10, 185, RFr.) provide depth at the position. Fobbs played in eight games last season and made his collegiate debut with two tackles in the season-opening 26-3 win at New Mexico. Scott, from Baton Rouge, La., was a redshirt in his first season on campus. Sir Demarco Bledsoe (6-2, 195, So.) and Corderra Hunter (6-2, 220, Sr.) enter the fall in first-team positions on the depth chart at strong safety and weak safety, respectively. Bledsoe had a key sack in the final two minutes at Colorado State to help preserve the Frogs’ 13-7 win. Hunter is a three-year letterman who has primarily contributed on special teams. He totaled a season-best three tackles in the 31-14 victory over Stanford. Colin Jones (6-0, 205, Jr.), a standout running back during his days at Bridgeport (Texas) High School, will add depth at strong safety. Jones had a sack in last year’s 26-3 win at New Mexico. Tekerrein Cuba (6-4, 210, So.) will push Hunter for playing time at weak safety. Cuba made his collegiate debut with a starting assignment in last year’s win at New Mexico. He totaled four tackles, including one for loss, against the Lobos. Cuba will look to battle back from an injury suffered in the final practice before the Frogs departed for San Diego and the Poinsettia Bowl.

DARYL WASHINGTON TEJAY JOHNSON
2009 SEASON PREviEWHORNEd FROG dEFENSE
Led by 2008 consensus All-American Jerry Hughes, TCU returns five starters and several key reserves from last year’s top-ranked defense in the nation. The Frogs allowed just 217.8 yards per game to pace the country for the nation-leading third time in the last nine campaigns. The Frogs were also tops in the country last season in run defense (47.1 yards) while placing second in scoring defense (11.3 points) and fourth in pass efficiency defense (97.9). Hughes, who led the nation with 15 sacks and six forced fumbles, will be supported by returning All-MWC corners Rafael Priest and Nick Sanders as well as standout linebacker Daryl Washington and safety Tejay Johnson.
cORNERBAcKIn 2006, Rafael Priest (5-10, 181, Sr.) and Nick Sanders (5-10, 174, Sr.) were redshirt freshmen and the biggest question marks on the TCU defense. Having started every game the last three seasons, Priest and Sanders are now cornerstones of the Frogs’ secondary and All-MWC selections. Priest was ranked by CollegeFootballNews.com as one of the top 20 cornerbacks in the nation. He totaled 10 pass breakups last year and has 29 over the past three seasons to go with four interceptions. Sanders had two picks in TCU’s 32-7 win over BYU as well as two sacks in a 13-7 victory at Colorado State. His team-best 12 pass breakups enabled him to finish second in the MWC with an average of 1.1 passes defended per game. Greg McCoy (5-10, 181, So.) is the fastest member of the Frogs with a 4.32 time in the 40. His first career interception came in the 54-7 win over Wyoming. McCoy lettered in a reserve role. After being sidelined by injury during preseason camp, Jason Teague (6-2, 185, Jr.) was able to get on the field during the second half of the campaign. Originally an LSU signee, he could have an increased role this fall.
SPEciAL TEAmSSpecial teams have always been a strength for TCU. In 2008, Jeremy Kerley (5-10, 192, Jr.) gave the Frogs their fourth consecutive first-team All-Mountain West Conference return specialist, covering every year TCU has been in the league. Kerley ranked 13th nationally in punt returns with a 13.9-yard average. A former prep quarterback, Kerley also serves as the holder on field goals and PATs. Ryan Christian (5-11, 188, Sr.) will enter the fall as the primary kickoff returner. He averaged 22.3 yards on six attempts last season with a long of 41. After placing 55.6 percent (30-of-54) of his punts inside the opponent 20 with just seven touchbacks, Anson Kelton (6-4, 260, So.) earned All-Mountain West Conference honors in his first season of competition. Kelton was the MWC Special Teams Player of the Week in a 13-7 win at Colorado State. Four of his seven punts were downed inside the Ram 13-yard line, including two inside the 3. Kelton averaged 41.3 yards per attempt on the season. Preseason All-American Ross Evans (5-9, 185, So.) was the lone freshman last year to be a semifinalist for the Lou Groza Award as the nation’s top placekicker. He was 16-of-20 on field goals, including a season-long 50-yard effort at New Mexico on his first collegiate attempt. Evans also had 49 PATs, one shy of a TCU single-season record. Evans will also handle the Frogs’ kickoff duties. Clint Gresham (6-3, 225, Sr.) returns as the short and long snapper. After arriving at TCU as a walk-on transfer from Oklahoma, he has since been placed on scholarship. Gresham is one of the more unsung players at TCU and has been singled out by Frog head coach Gary Patterson for his excellent snaps.

W E LC O M E TO TC UWelcome to TCU, home of a program that not only produces champions on the field, but also off it. The Horned Frogs own one of the
proudest heritages in all of college football, and that winning tradition produced by past generations of some of the game’s all-time greats
has carried over to today. Advances have been occurring within the program at a rapid rate recently with the opening of newer and better
facilities, and the victories continue to pile up. But a championship history is not the lone factor our student-athletes cite for choosing TCU.
The Texas Christian University campus, one that continues to commit itself to staying at the forefront of national universities, is a caring,
friendly community that possesses the strengths and choices of a major university, tempered by the humanity of a smaller college. TCU also is
located in the heart of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, and choices for leisure and entertainment abound.
So, you’re interested in learning more? Flip ahead to see just what places TCU in a class by itself.

WHY TCU?“It’s because of the people. TCU is a place where you can make a difference. We have
a motto as a staff: ‘Take young men where they cannot take themselves.’ I think TCU
allows us to do that.”
—Head Coach Gary Patterson on why recruits choose TCU
“I chose to attend TCU because of Coach Patterson’s aggressive style of play. Under his
system, he teaches you to be like a coach on the field. He pushes you to the limit, and
it paid off for me in becoming a fourth-round draft pick. He also does a great job of
preparing you for life after football. He teaches you to do the right things and to have a
game plan and strategy beyond two or three years down the road.”
—Former Frog and current Cincinnati Bengals safety Marvin White
“I came to TCU because the coaches here saw something in me that no other coaches
saw. They moved me to linebacker, which worked out pretty well. We won a lot of
games here, so it was a good fit for me.”
—Former Frog and current Baltimore Ravens linebacker Jason Phillips

A R I C H H I STO RYLong before Gary Patterson’s TCU squads were stringing together double-digit win seasons and bowl victories, the Horned Frogs were piling
up wins as a major force in the old Southwest Conference. TCU’s most successful decade, the 1930s, saw the program collect a pair of national
championships and more wins (84) under Hall of Fame head coach Dutch Meyer (below left) than any other program in the nation. TCU is the
place where college football legends Davey O’Brien (above) and Slingin’ Sammy Baugh helped to redefine the quarterback position for the
modern era, where Jim Swink (below right) ran wild on opposing defenses in 1955 and Bob Lilly began his Pro Football Hall of Fame journey.
That same high standard has re-emerged for Frog football, as evidenced by college football’s 10th-best winning percentage since 2000 (.748),
in addition to churning out active NFL stars such as LaDainian Tomlinson and Aaron Schobel.

CHAMPIONSHIP GOALSSince 2000, TCU owns the 10th-best record among teams in the NCAA’s Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) at 83-28 (.748). The Horned Frogs
have closed the year with a top-25 ranking and at least 10 wins six times in the last nine seasons. Overall, TCU has made it to 10 bowl games in
the last 11 years, and the program is currently one of only seven teams with a bowl winning streak of at least four games. The squad also has
won four conference titles in the last decade while making a name for itself against some of the nation’s top programs. In the Gary Patterson
era alone, the Frogs have taken down six ranked opponents in addition to posting 11 victories against BCS conference opponents—Arizona,
Baylor (twice), Iowa State, Northwestern (twice), Oklahoma, Stanford (twice), Texas Tech and Vanderbilt.

GAME DAY AT TCUThere is no better place to be on a fall Saturday in Fort Worth than Amon G. Carter Stadium, where the Horned Frogs play in front of one
of the most passionate groups of fans in all of college football. The sound of the band ... the cheers of the student section ... the 21-2 home
record over the past four seasons ... each contributes to one of the best football atmospheres around. Adding to the electricity of the TCU
game day experience is the fact that more often than not, the Frogs are popping the pads at night. Half of the upcoming season’s six home
games have been scheduled to be played under the lights at Amon Carter, and almost certainly in front of a raucous home crowd.

WHAT THE HECK IS A HORNED FROG?1. The scientific name for this Texas reptile is
phrynosoma cornutum; in Greek, phrynos means “a toad” and soma means “body”; in Latin, cornutus
means “horned.”
2. Their primary diet is red harvester ants; they eat 80 to 100 a day.
3. The typical horned frog is three to five inches long.
4. Horned frogs are cold-blooded and have an unusual pineal gland, resembling a “third eye” on the top of the head, which zoologists believe is part of their system of
thermoregulation.
5. When angered or frightened, horned frogs can squirt a fine, four-foot stream of blood from their eyes.
6. The horned frog was named the State Reptile of Texas in 1992.
HORNED FROG TRADITIONTradition runs deep at TCU, and it all begins with the Horned Frog. Some say the frog was chosen as the school’s mascot because the football
practice field was overrun with the small, spiny lizards. Others say its feisty attitude simply matched the tough frontier spirit shown by TCU
itself. Other school traditions include TCU’s school colors, purple and white. The former represents royalty, the latter a clean game. Swaying
while singing the alma mater is a must. So is learning how to do the Horned Frog hand sign. (Make a peace sign. Now fold those two fingers.)
And new students may not have any idea what Riff, Ram, Bah Zoo means now, but they’ll soon discover that it’s one of the oldest cheers in
the country. We also blow the 120-decibel Frog Horn—a real live train horn—after every football score.

TCU TRADITIONSGOAL SETTING: Prior to every season, a new
pyramid of goals dons a wall in the Four Sevens Team Room. Once a player or coach commits to the goals,
he signs the pyramid.
FROG ALLEy: Carnival-type atmosphere for fans prior to kickoff; extremely family-friendly and adds a
lot of excitement to the game-day atmosphere.
BLEAChER CREATURES: Kids get the opportunity to run on the field as the Horned Frogs exit the tunnel.
ALMA MATER: After every game – home or away – the football team joins its fans to sing the alma mater
and fight song.
ONE LAST GOODByE: After their last regular-season practice, the seniors are carried off the field by the
underclassmen.
hONORS: With seniors decked out in their tuxedos, the team gets together each year for its celebrated banquet; all seniors receive their framed jerseys to recognize their careers at TCU. In the past, players
have also received their bowl/championship rings at this annual event.

HOME OF THE IRON SKILLETThe Iron Skillet is awarded annually to the
winner between TCU’s matchup with Metroplex rival SMU.
During the post-World War II college football boom, the student bodies from both schools introduced the traveling trophy. The tradition eventually died before being revived in 1993.
The Frogs have held the trophy for all but one year since 1999, as the Mustangs broke a six-game losing streak to the Frogs in 2005. TCU kept the Skillet in Fort Worth for the second straight year with a 48-7 victory last season
in Dallas.

BOWL SEASON REGULARSNo bowl season is complete without an appearance by TCU, at least that’s what Horned Frog fans have come to expect during Gary
Patterson’s eight years as head coach. The program has advanced to 10 bowl games in the last 11 years overall and, beginning with a 28-19
Sun Bowl win over USC in 1998, claimed seven victories. The latest win, last season’s 17-16 victory over ninth-ranked and previously unbeaten
Boise State in the Poinsettia Bowl at the San Diego Chargers’ Qualcomm Stadium, marked TCU’s fourth straight bowl win. The current four-
game bowl winning streak marks the longest such winning streak in school history.
THE BOWL EXPERIENCEThe TCU football team enjoyed six days in San Diego leading up to its Dec. 23 battle with
Boise State in the 2008 Poinsettia Bowl. Prior to their victory, the Frog players and coaches
took part in several activities, including a team-wide go kart battle (above) and visit to the
world-renowned San Diego Zoo (left). Head coach Gary Patterson and several players also
got into the holiday mood by attending a reception for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Two
days later, six Frogs received diplomas in a special commencement ceremony led by
TCU Chancellor Dr. Victor Boschini.

COACHING EXCELLENCEHead Coach Gary Patterson has been able to assemble a seasoned staff that has helped turn TCU into one of the nation’s most successful
programs during his eight-year tenure. The Frogs own a .730 winning percentage since he took the reigns of the Frog program in 2000 to rank
among the nation’s elite. Five of Patterson’s assistant coaches have been with him for at least five seasons, including four who have been on
staff since he became head coach.
“Gary Patterson’s resumé speaks for itself. He’s one of the top coaches in the country. He runs the TCU program the right way. He recruits good kids and turns them into outstanding young men.” —Mark May, ESPN football analyst
“Coach Patterson expects perfection. His goal is to have you reach your full potential. He’s not going to settle for being mediocre. Coach Patterson is very passionate about his work. If you’re coming to TCU, he’s going to make sure you come to work every day and you’re doing everything you can to get better every day.”
—Herb Taylor, offensive tackle, Kansas City Chiefs
“Coach Patterson is the type of coach who will make sure he pushes you further than you could ever dream of pushing yourself. He is definitely the most passionate and hardworking coach I’ve ever played for. He will make it his personal business to make sure he gets the most out of all his players. Coach Patterson also demands great character. Not only will he make you a great player on the field, he will make you a great person off the field. I know that if I didn’t have Coach Patterson to push me through those 4 1/2 years of my life, I wouldn’t be where I am today.” —Jason Phillips, linebacker, Baltimore Ravens

A major factor in today’s recruiting is the ability of a program to prepare a player for a career in pro football. The last decade in particular
has seen TCU send several top players to the National Football League. Chief among Horned Frog alumni in the league is 2006 NFL MVP
LaDainian Tomlinson (above left), who owns the NFL’s single-season touchdown record, as well as Buffalo Bills’ two-time Pro Bowl selection
Aaron Schobel (above right). Five Frogs (below) were taken in the 2009 NFL Draft, a figure that led all schools in the state of Texas.

FIRST-CLASS FACILITIESFrog football players benefit from a solid group of athletic facilites available for their use on a daily basis. While the program has called 44,358-
seat Amon G. Carter Stadium home since 1930, more recent additions include the Sam Baugh Indoor Practice Facility and the Dutch Meyer
Athletic Complex and Abe Martin Academic Enhancement Center.
AMON G. CARTER STADIUMThe Horned Frogs’ official home since
its construction in 1930, Amon G. Carter
Stadium features grandstands on both
sidelines, including a massive double-deck
west stand that towers above the TCU
campus. The Frogs have used the home-
field atmosphere of the charming facility
to their advantage by winning 50 of 56
games (89.3 percent) at
home since 1999.
The playing surface was changed from a
synthetic turf to natural grass in 1992, and
a new state-of-the-art scoring and video
system was added in 2002. Amon G. Carter
Stadium received a major facelift in 2008,
as the Dutch Meyer Athletic Complex
and Abe Martin Academic Enhancement
Center added six luxury suites and 255
club seats to the south end zone. A
complete renovation of Amon Carter also
has recently been proposed. For a sneak
peek of the proposed changes,

DUTCH MEYER ATHLETIC COMPLEX & ABE MARTIN ACADEMIC ENHANCEMENT CENTERNamed for a pair of legendary TCU coaches, the $13-million, 40,000-square-foot Dutch Meyer Athletic Complex and Abe Martin Academic Enhancement Center made its debut in August 2008
and features six suites and 255 club seats. The facility sits atop the Walsh Complex and includes an expansive club lounge for socializing and premier dining while watching the Frogs. The
building also includes increased academic space and team meeting areas and was funded completely by nine donors. Revenues from club seating and suites go directly to supporting athletics
scholarships through the Frog Club.
With 40,000 square feet of team meeting space, tutor rooms, a computer lab and team room - not to mention a club level and suites for fans - the new Dutch Meyer Athletic Complex and Abe
Martin Academic Enhancement Center is first class in every regard. The facility boasts six suites that are equipped with mini-bar, cushion seating and flat-screen television, or occupants can go
to a row of club seats just outside the window. The team room (far bottom) is comfortable and technology-rich. In-wall lighting, flat-screen televisions, game consoles and sofas make it the
perfect place for the team to relax. The Four Sevens Team Meeting Room (below left) seats 120 and features accoustic-enhancing fabric walls and a state-of-the-art projection system for
watching film. The club level (below right) is for fans with tickets for club seating or suites. It offers food service, flat-screen televisions and plenty of seating. Skybridges connect the club
level to club seating.

SAM BAUGH INDOOR PRACTICE FACILITY & COX FIELD
The Sam Baugh Indoor Practice Facility and Cox
Field, which opened in summer 2007, gives TCU a
competitive edge in attracting top student-athletes,
in addition to providing the Horned Frogs with the
ability to practice regardless of outside
weather conditions.
The climate-controlled facility features an 80-yard
field with regulation 52-yard width and two full
end zones. It measures 60 feet from the turf to the
highest point of its vaulted ceiling. Construction
was finished during the summer of 2007 at a cost of
roughly $7 million. The 80,000 square-foot structure
is named in honor of the Horned Frogs’ football
legend and sits adjacent to TCU’s Morris
Practice Fields.
“An indoor facility has become essential in attracting
the top prospective student-athletes to campus. The
generosity of both the Justin Foundation and Cox
Family will enable us to aggressively recruit among
the nation’s best programs.”
—Head Coach Gary Patterson
WALSH COMPLEXTCU’s spacious Walsh Complex (above) provides Horned Frog student-athletes with a

of a renovated rehab area featuring all-new equipment. For more information on both facilities,
see pages 38-41.
JOHN JUSTIN ATHLETIC CENTERConstruction of the 38,000-square-foot John Justin Athletic Center (above left) was completed
in August 2000. The facility, located outside the south end zone of Amon G. Carter Stadium,
houses the TCU football offices, athletics administration offices, Athletic Academic Services
Office, video labs and the Encke Heritage Center. The Justin Center is named after longtime
TCU trustee John Justin, former CEO of Justin Industries.
Located on the Justin Center’s second floor outside the entry to the football offices is TCU’s
vast collection of trophies and other historic athletics memorabilia (left). Included among the
collection are two national championship trophies, Davey O’Brien’s 1938 Heisman Trophy and
LaDainian Tomlinson’s 2000 Doak Walker Award.

O N TH E H O R I ZO NCommitment is the key word when it comes to TCU football, and in no area is that word more evident than the facility improvements planned
for the future of the Horned Frog program. The first step was the Sam Baugh Indoor Practice Facility that opened in summer 2007, while
phase two was unveiled last fall in the form of the Dutch Meyer Athletic Complex and Abe Martin Academic Enhancement Center. Additional
major changes loom on the horizon as a feasibility study currently is underway for a proposed renovation of Amon G. Carter Stadium. The
project received a lead give of $15 million from the Amon Carter Foundation in spring 2008.

DANIEL-MEYER COLISEUMHome of the TCU men’s and women’s
basketball teams, Daniel-Meyer Coliseum
is located on the southeast corner of Amon
G. Carter Stadium. The 7,201-seat arena of
the “DMC” was constructed in 1961 and has
seen several upgrades in recent years. In
addition to receiving updated men’s and
women’s locker rooms in 2002, a new sports
medicine facility was added in 2006. The
arena floor was replaced in 2003, and a new
LED suspended scoreboard and LED boards
along the scorers’ tables were added in 2007
at a cost of nearly $1.5 million.
TCU has taken full advantage of its
home-court atmosphere since the DMC’s
construction. The men have won 63 percent
of their home games since 1961, while the
Lady Frogs have posted an 81.8 percent
home winning percentage over the last
10 seasons.
ATHLETICS FACILITIESTCU takes pride in its ablility to provide student-athletes with some of the finest facilities possible. Horned Frog athletes have seen multiple
facility upgrades in recent years, and not just for football. The Schollmaier Basketball Complex, completed in 2004, gave both the men’s and
women’s basketball programs a brand-new practice facility, while the baseball team benefited from the construction of the $7-million Lupton
Stadium in 2003. The tennis, track and field, soccer, volleyball and swimming and diving programs also have seen individual sport improvements
since 2000, and a multi-million-dollar Olympic Sports Complex is one of many projects in the works for the future of TCU’s athletics program.

TCU STRENGTH & CONDITIONINGPhILOSOPhy
The field of strength and conditioning is extremely
dynamic and always changing. The one constant in our
profession is the student-athletes. Our No. 1 goal is to
make each student athlete stronger, faster, and more
powerful in whatever sport they choose to participate in.
By doing these things, we help prevent injury. The sport
specific training regiments are preventative in nature. As
strength and conditioning professionals, we are entrusted
with the care and guidance of student-athletes from
across the country and mold them into elite world class
athletes during their tenure at TCU.
MISSIONTo provide a positive and energetic learning environment
for student-athletes and coaches. To train both body and
mind, creating an interest and desire for strength and
conditioning. To assist every student athlete in achieving
an optimum physical performance level, while preparing
them for a lifetime of fitness.
HORNED FROG STRONGIt’s where success on the field sees its beginnings—in the weight room. TCU takes pride in providing its student-athletes with the finest
strength and conditioning program possible. A staff of six full-time strength coaches and graduate assistants push Horned Frog student-
athletes to become stronger, faster and more powerful while at the same time helping to avoid injury. The TCU football program utilizes a
massive weight room in the Walsh Complex, and the program’s commitment to strength and conditioning has paid off, as all of the football
team’s weight lifting records have been broken in head coach Gary Patterson’s tenure.

DR. SAM HARALDSONTCU student-athletes are fortunate to benefit from the services of Dr.
Sam Haraldson (left), the Frogs’ own full-time staff physician. Haraldson
is one of only seven physicians in the nation who is associated with a
college athletics program on a full-time basis.
A native of Eureka, Calif., Haraldson earned his doctoral degree in
medicine from the University of California - Irvine and owns several
certifications, including: Basic Life Support (BLS), Advanced Cardiac Life
Support (ACLS), Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) and Pediatric
Advanced Life Support (PALS).
In addition to Haraldson, five other primary physicians provide support
for TCU’s athletics programs: Steve Brotherton, MD; Joe Milne, MD; Mark
Wylie, MD; Steve Meyers, MD; and Gary Pointer, DDS.
TCU’s sports medicine department also sets itself apart from most other
college programs by employing a part-time nutritionist, Amy Goodson.
Goodson works with the department to help Frog student-athletes eat
right on a daily basis.
S PO RTS M E D I C I N EThe TCU athletic training staff aims to provide the highest level of sports medicine care so Frog student-athletes can keep themselves on
the field of play. The staff uses processes combining care, prevention and rehabilitation with the supervision of nutritional and physiological
needs of each student-athlete. The football team utilizes the Walsh Center Athletic Training Room, while there are also training rooms in
Daniel-Meyer Coliseum, Lupton Baseball Stadium and the University Recreation Center. The Walsh facility received a newly remodeled
rehabilitation room in fall 2008 that includes new state-of-the-art equipment.

on the team. “We wanted to develop more leadership and create a situation where leadership was passed from one class to the next,” head
coach Gary Patterson said. “If the players have the opportunity for input, they have ownership. If they have ownership, then they’re more
accountable to themselves and to their teammates. It becomes ‘our decision,’ instead of ‘my decision.’” The group is charged with, among
other purposes, serving as a vehicle of communication among the players and coaches and serving as a unified voice for the team.

Fort Worth continues to wear its cowboy heritage and exude a prop-your-feet-up-and-stay-awhile spirit. Smiles and nods are the norm.
Optimism, like a friendly handshake, is undeniable. Yet as much as Fort Worth began on the open range, it thrives more today as a
cosmopolitan city. It marries a proud cowboy heritage with a distinct sophistication that sets the city apart. Downtown itself is only five miles
from campus. Sundance Square invites patrons to enjoy the 20-block entertainment and shopping venue. Where else can you take your pick
of more than 25 upscale eateries, see a movie, attend a play, listen to a symphony or dance under the stars – all within walking distance of
each other? Fort Worth connects with nearby Dallas and other surrounding communities for what is simply known as the “Metroplex,” which
boasts a total population of more than 6.1 million to form the fourth-largest metropolitan area in the United States.

Since taking over the helm of the Horned Frogs in December 2000, Gary Patterson has become synonymous with TCU football.
Patterson has led TCU to at least 10 wins five times in the last seven years, including four 11-win campaigns in the past six seasons. No other coach in TCU history has more than two 10-win campaigns.
The dean of Mountain West Conference coaches, Patterson guided TCU to an 11-2 record in 2008 and a No. 7 ranking in the final AP and USA Today polls. It was the Frogs’ highest season-ending appearance in the polls since 1959. Included in the win total were victories over then-undefeated, top-10 teams BYU and Boise State. It was the first time since 1961 that TCU beat two top-10 opponents in the same season.
Patterson’s 73-27 (.730) record is the best mark of any TCU head coach after 100 games. Dutch Meyer, coach of the 1935 and 1938 national championship teams, is second (.665, 64-31-5, 1934-40). Patterson’s 73 wins are third on the Frogs’ career victory list and just one behind Abe Martin for second place (74, 1953-66).
Patterson’s .730 winning percentage is second among TCU coaches with more than 20 games under their belt and 10th among active coaches in the Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly called Division I-A).
The Frogs have won four conference titles with Patterson on staff in addition to posting six of the school’s 10 ten-win seasons. He was TCU’s defensive coordinator from 1998-00.
During his 11 years on campus, Patterson has seen TCU make 10 bowl appearances. With a 17-16 victory over No. 9 Boise State in the 2008 Poinsettia Bowl, Patterson has led the Frogs to four-straight bowl victories for the first time in school history. TCU is one of just seven schools nationally to have a current bowl winning streak of at least four in a row.
TCU is 7-3 in bowl games with Patterson on its coaching staff and 5-3 with him as head coach. Prior to Patterson’s arrival on campus in 1998, the Frogs had just four bowl wins in their history.
In 2008, Patterson was one of 15 semifinalists for the George Munger National Coach of the Year Award by the Maxwell Football Club. He was also named to the Paul “Bear” Bryant Watch List for the College Football Coach of the Year.
TCU led the nation in total defense (217.8 yards per game) in 2008 for the third time in nine seasons. No other school in the country has finished first in that category as many times as TCU in that span. The Frogs were also first in run defense (47.1 yards), fewest first downs allowed per game (12.1) and time of possession (35:10). TCU was second in scoring defense (11.3 points per game).
The Frogs are 11-3 in their last 14 games against teams from leagues with automatic BCS bids, including a 5-2 mark versus the Big 12 the past four seasons.
The Frogs were 11th in the final BCS standings in 2008. TCU has appeared in the BCS standings 28 times, trailing only Boise State (34) for the most among schools from a non-automatic qualifying conference.
In eight seasons as a head coach, Patterson has coached 93 all-conference selections, six All-Americans, 10 freshman All-Americans and one academic All-American.
In three of its first four seasons in the Mountain West, TCU has set the pace on the all-conference teams. The Frogs had 18 selections in 2005 and 2008, 14 in 2006 and 11 in 2007.
In his tenure as TCU’s head coach, Patterson has had 21 players drafted with a total of 41 in NFL camps.
Patterson became the fastest TCU coach to reach 50 victories (70 games) with a 27-21 win at New Mexico on Nov. 11, 2006.
Patterson was the 2002 Conference USA and 2005 Mountain West Conference Coach of the Year. He was a 2003 finalist for Eddie Robinson and Bobby Dodd National Coach of the Year honors. He also appeared on the 2006 Bobby Dodd Watch List.
An 11-2 record in 2006 included wins over Big 12 opponents Baylor and Texas Tech as well as a 37-7 victory over Northern Illinois in the Poinsettia Bowl.
The Frogs’ defense ranked second nationally in run defense (60.8 yards per game) and total defense (234.9 yards per game) while placing third in scoring defense (12.3 points per game). The 2007 defensive unit allowed 323.6 yards per game for the fourth-lowest total during Patterson’s time as head coach.
TCU won its last eight games in 2006 for the fourth-best winning streak at the time in the nation, trailing only Boise State (13), BYU (10) and Wisconsin (9).
The Frogs’ eight consecutive wins were by an average margin of 24.4 points. During that stretch, the TCU defense allowed per game marks of 10.8 points, 59.6 yards rushing and 185.1 in total offense.
In 2005, Patterson led the Frogs to the Mountain West Conference championship in their first season of league play.
It was also TCU’s first outright conference championship since 1958. The Frogs posted an 11-1 record for just the fourth 11-win season in school history and the second in three years.
TCU also recorded its first undefeated league mark (8-0) dating back to 1938.
The Frogs opened and closed the 2005 season with victories over Big 12 teams. Following a 27-24 EV1.net Houston Bowl win over Iowa State, Patterson saw TCU climb to ninth in the USA Today poll and 11th in the Associated Press poll. It was TCU’s highest season-ending ranking since 1959.
TCU, picked to finish sixth in 2005 preseason MWC polls, opened the campaign with a 17-10 victory at No. 5 Oklahoma. It was TCU’s first win against an opponent ranked that high since a 6-0 victory over No. 1 Texas in 1961.
Patterson’s success in 2005 was achieved while playing a total of 21 redshirt or true freshmen, tying for fourth nationally in that category.
The 2005 Frog defense led the nation in turnover margin (+21), interceptions (26) and takeaways (40). The offense set a single-season school record with 50 touchdowns while its 398 points scored ranked second all-time at TCU.
Setting the pace nationally in defensive categories is nothing new for Patterson. His teams led the country in defense during the 2000 and 2002 campaigns. In 2002, the Frogs

TCU has been no stranger to the post-season in the Patterson era. The Frogs have emerged victorious seven times in their run of 10 bowl games in 11 seasons, including a 17-3 win over MWC champion Colorado State in the 2002 AXA Liberty Bowl.
In his first full season as head coach with the Frogs in 2001, Patterson was one of only eight coaches with no previous Division I head coaching experience to lead their teams to bowl appearances. He proceeded to take the Frogs to a bowl in each of his first three years.
Patterson’s 10-2 record and conference championship in the 2002 season earned him Conference USA Coach of the Year accolades. The Frogs finished the season ranked 22nd in the USA Today/ESPN Coaches Poll and 23rd in the Associated Press poll.
Eleven of Patterson’s 73 career wins came in the Frogs’ 2003 campaign, when TCU climbed as high as sixth in the BCS rankings - the highest ranking at that time for a school from a non-automatic qualifying conference.
Under Patterson’s guidance, the Frogs got off to a 10-0 start after opening the season ranked 25th in the Associated Press poll. They finished the season 11-2 and ranked in the top 25 for the second year in a row - the first time that had happened at TCU since the 1950s. His leadership of the 2003 squad made him a finalist for both the Eddie Robinson and Bobby Dodd Coach of the Year honors. He was also named an assistant coach for the Hula Bowl.
In 2004, the Frogs finished in the top 20 in the nation in scoring offense, passing offense and total offense. The Patterson chapter of TCU football, however, has been dominated by a tradition of defense. Since 1999, the Frogs have been ranked in the top five nationally in total defense four times.
Patterson amassed 18 years as an assistant coach, including three with the Frogs, before taking the torch from Dennis Franchione prior to the 2000 GMAC Mobile Alabama Bowl.
In 1998, Patterson’s first season at TCU, the Frogs scored a school-record six defensive touchdowns, intercepted 12
passes and allowed only 19.6 points per game - the fewest points per game in over 30 years. It was accomplished by a team that was 1-10 the previous season.
Patterson’s 1999 TCU defense ended the season ranked fifth in the country in total defense. The Frogs posted two shutouts and led the Western Athletic Conference in every major defensive category.
In 2000, the Frogs allowed only 245.0 total yards and 9.6 points per game, ranking first in the nation in both categories. Five of Patterson’s players earned first-team all-conference recognition and he was a finalist for the Frank Broyles National Assistant Coach of the Year award.
Prior to his arrival in Fort Worth, Patterson spent two seasons as the defensive coordinator and safeties coach at New Mexico. The Lobos collected 22 total takeaways and three defensive touchdowns in 1996. The next year, in Patterson style, New Mexico improved their total takeaways to 29, including 16 interceptions.
A true defensive specialist, Patterson had a similar impact at Navy. In just one season as the Midshipmen’s secondary coach in 1995, he helped elevate the defense in the national rankings. Navy finished 18th in total defense, 17th in scoring defense and 28th in pass defense efficiency.
Patterson’s defensive acumen dates back to his own playing days at Kansas State, where he played strong safety and outside linebacker for the Wildcats in 1980 and 1981.
He served as a graduate assistant in 1982 and received his bachelor’s degree in physical education in 1983. He took the linebacker coaching position at Tennessee Tech while earning a master’s degree in educational administration in 1984.
Patterson has been part of 13 bowl staffs, including one each with Kansas State, Utah State and New Mexico. The other 10 have come at TCU. Aside from being an accomplished Division I head coach, Patterson is also a skilled guitar player. On several occasions, Patterson has entertained TCU fans with his guitar skills at pep rallies around the Fort Worth area.
A native of Rozel, Kansas, Patterson is married to the former Kelsey Hayes. He has three sons: Josh, Cade and Blake.

After coming to TCU as a graduate assistant, Jarrett Anderson
is in his 12th year overall with the Horned Frogs.
In February 2009, Anderson was promoted to co-offensive
coordinator. He also became the running backs coach after
serving as wide receivers coach the previous eight seasons.
In 2008, sophomore Jimmy Young became the first TCU wide
receiver to be named All-Mountain West Conference in the
Frogs’ four years in the league. Young had 988 yards receiving
to narrowly miss just the second 1,000-yard season in TCU
history. His 59 receptions tied for the fourth-best total on the
Frogs’ single-season chart.
Under Anderson’s tutelage, three TCU receivers in the last
seven years have been drafted by NFL teams.
Cory Rodgers was a fourth-round pick by Green Bay in 2006,
while Adrian Madise and LaTarence Dunbar were selected
in the fifth and sixth rounds in 2003 by Denver and Atlanta,
respectively. All three finished their careers in the top 10 of
various TCU receiving categories.
Reggie Harrell, who signed as a free agent with Dallas,
became the school’s first 1,000-yard receiver in 2003.
During his three-year career, Rodgers tied Mike Renfro’s
career TCU mark of 17 receiving touchdowns.
Both Harrell and Rodgers rank among the top 10 in school
history in career receptions and yards while earning all-
conference recognition.
In 2006, Quentily Harmon closed his career as TCU’s ninth-
leading receiver with 111 catches. In addition, Michael
DePriest was signed as a free-agent in 2007 by Indianapolis.
Prior to assuming his current duties, Anderson served on
the TCU coaching staff as a graduate assistant from 1998-00,
working primarily with the Frogs’ offensive line.
Anderson spent one season (1997) as an assistant coach at
Tyler Junior College, where he worked with the running backs
and receivers. He began his collegiate playing career at Tyler
before transferring to New Mexico. He lettered for the Lobos
in both 1992 and 1993.
Anderson graduated from New Mexico in 1993 with a
bachelor’s degree in university studies and earned a master’s
degree in TCU’s MLA program.
Anderson and his wife, Lisa, have two sons: Aidan and Eli.

Dick Bumpas joined TCU in February 2004 as the defensive coordinator and defensive line coach.
Bumpas first worked with Horned Frog coach Gary Patterson at Kansas State in the early 1980s. He was the Wildcats’ defensive line coach in 1981 when Patterson was a senior linebacker. Patterson then became a Kansas State graduate assistant in 1982 and joined Bumpas on staff.
The duo also worked together at Tennessee Tech (1983-84), Utah State (1992-94) and Navy (1995). At each place, Bumpas was the defensive coordinator while Patterson was a position coach.
Bumpas was a 2008 finalist for the Broyles Award as the nation’s top assistant coach. TCU led the nation in total defense (217.8 yards per game), run defense (47.1 yards per game) and fewest first downs allowed per game (12.1) while placing second in scoring defense (11.3 points per game) and sacks (43) and fourth in pass efficiency defense (97.9).
Bumpas mentored Horned Frog defensive end Jerry Hughes into consensus All-America honors and being a finalist for the Bronko Nagurski Trophy and Ted Hendricks Award. Hughes had never played on defense until arriving at TCU.
All four of TCU’s starting defensive linemen in 2008 were named All-MWC. In addition to Hughes being a first-team selection, seniors Cody Moore and Matt Panfil enjoyed their best seasons in 2008 and were both second-team picks. Defensive tackle James Vess was an honorable-mention choice.
In 2007, Bumpas was ranked by Rivals.com as the seventh-best defensive coach in the nation.
Bumpas coached defensive ends Tommy Blake and Chase Ortiz to first-team All-Mountain West Conference honors in 2005 and 2006. In 2007, Ortiz became TCU’s first three-time first-team all-conference player in 30 years (Mike Renfro, 1975-77). Ortiz signed a free-agent contract with the Cleveland Browns.
The 2006 TCU defense ranked second nationally in run defense (60.8 yards per game) and total defense (234.9 ypg.) while placing third in scoring defense (12.3 points per game).
Bumpas was nominated for the 2005 Frank Broyles National Assistant Coach of the Year award. He was named the Rivals.com National Defensive Coordinator of the Week following the Horned Frogs’ season-opening 17-10 win at Oklahoma. TCU held the Sooners to 225 yards of total offense and the second-lowest point total in coach Bob Stoops’ tenure in Norman.
TCU led the nation in 2005 in turnover margin (+21), interceptions (26) and takeaways (40). The Frogs topped the Mountain West Conference with 41 sacks and allowed just three touchdowns in their final three games, keeping their opponent out of the end zone for 10 quarters from Oct. 29 at San Diego State to the Dec. 31 EV1.net Houston Bowl.
In a coaching career that has spanned 30 years, Bumpas has won championships in four different conferences and coached at all three service academies. He has also coached in 15 bowl games.
Bumpas came to TCU after serving as Western Michigan’s defensive coordinator for one season.
Bumpas worked at the University of Houston from 1999-02, serving as assistant head coach and linebackers coach and later as co-defensive coordinator, installing the 4-2-5 defense in his initial season.
Prior to his stint at Houston, Bumpas worked four seasons at the U.S. Naval Academy as assistant head coach, defensive coordinator and defensive line coach. His 1997 Navy unit ranked sixth in total defense and turnover margin.
Bumpas spent three seasons (1992-94) as assistant head coach and defensive coordinator at Utah State, helping the Aggies to a 1993 Big West Championship and a Las Vegas Bowl victory over Ball State. Other coaching stops include two seasons as defensive line coach at Notre Dame (1990-92). In 1989, Bumpas coached the defensive line at his alma mater, Arkansas, a team that went on to win a Southwest Conference title and advanced to the 1990 Cotton Bowl.
Bumpas coached seven years in the Volunteer state, splitting time between the University of Tennessee (1985-89) as linebackers coach/special teams coordinator and Tennessee Tech (1983-84) as assistant head coach and defensive coordinator. While with the Vols, Bumpas coached three bowl championship teams (1986 Sugar, 1986 Liberty, 1988 Peach) and was part of the Southeastern Conference championship in 1985.
Bumpas began his collegiate coaching career as a graduate assistant at Arkansas in 1977. From there, he went to the U.S. Military Academy and implemented a new defense under Homer Smith in 1978. Installing new defenses would become a trend for Bumpas, who did the same thing as defensive line coach at the Air Force Academy during a two-year tenure (1979-80) with the Falcons.
A native of Fort Smith, Ark., Bumpas received three varsity letters and was a captain for the Razorbacks. He was named SWC Defensive Player of the Year in 1970, earning consensus All-America honors at defensive tackle. He received a Bachelor’s degree in education from Arkansas in 1973. He went on to play tight end and linebacker professionally for the Memphis Southmen in the World Football League and the British Columbia Lions of the Canadian Football League.
Bumpas was a 2006 inductee into the University of Arkansas Sports Hall of Honor.
Bumpas is married to the former Gloria Surratt.

Justin Fuente joined the TCU football coaching staff in
February 2007 as running backs coach and was promoted to
co-offensive coordinator in February 2009. As part of his new
duties, he moves from running backs to quarterbacks coach.
The Horned Frogs defined running back by committee in
2008. TCU ranked 12th nationally in rushing despite not
having a player in the top-96 individually. TCU’s 220.2 yards
per game rushing was its highest mark since 2000, when
LaDainian Tomlinson keyed a Frog ground attack that

Fuente coached tailback Aaron Brown into being a sixth-
round selection by the Detroit Lions in the 2009 NFL draft.
Fuente came to TCU after spending the previous six seasons
as quarterbacks coach at Illinois State. His final three years
saw him double as the Redbirds’ offensive coordinator.
Fuente played two seasons (1996-97) at Oklahoma under
former TCU quarterbacks coach and then-Sooners offensive
coordinator Dick Winder. Fuente set an Oklahoma freshman
record with 11 touchdown passes. He transferred to Murray
State for his final two years of eligibility.
Fuente set 11 school records at Murray State, including total
offense and passing yards in a game and season. He was
the Ohio Valley Conference Offensive Player of the Year and
a finalist for the Walter Payton Award, given annually to the
nation’s top player in Division I-AA.
Under Fuente’s direction, Illinois State ranked in the top 10
nationally in total offense in 2005 and 2006. The Redbirds
placed eighth in 2006 with an average of 397.5 yards per
game after ranking fifth in both total offense (477.6 yards)
and scoring (39.2 points) in 2005.
Fuente coached Redbird quarterback Luke Drone to first-
team All-Gateway Conference honors as he led the league in
passing (227.8 yards) and total offense (231.6 yards). Running
back Pierre Rembert set an Illinois State single-season record
while ranking sixth nationally in rushing with 1,743 yards
(134.1 per game).

One of the more popular players to ever don the Purple and
White, Dan Sharp is in his ninth year during his second stint as
an assistant coach at his alma mater. He doubles as the tight
ends and special teams coach.
A 2005 inductee into the TCU Lettermen’s Hall of Fame, Sharp
returned to the Horned Frogs’ staff in 2001 as the tight ends
coach and special teams coordinator. He previously coached
for seven seasons at TCU before heading to Tulsa in 1998.
In 2008, Sharp mentored freshmen Anson Kelton and Ross
Evans as they handled the punter and placekicker duties,
respectively, for TCU.
Kelton earned All-Mountain West Conference honors as 30 of
his 54 punts (55.6 percent) were placed inside the opponent
20 with just seven touchbacks. He had a 41.3 average. Evans
made 16-of-20 field goals, including a 50-yard effort on his
first collegiate attempt, and was the only freshman among
the semifinalists for the Lou Groza Award as the nation’s top
placekicker.
Sharp coached TCU placekicker and three-time All-Mountain
West Conference selection Chris Manfredini to a 47-of-54
mark on field goals in three seasons (2005-07). Additionally,
punter Derek Wash was an honorable-mention All-MWC
choice in 2007 with a 42.5 average.
Placekicker Nick Browne and punter Joey Biasatti were
semifinalists for the Lou Groza and Ray Guy Awards,
respectively, during the 2002 campaign. Browne earned All-
America honors and was the Conference USA Special Teams
Player of the Year in 2003.
TCU’s special teams have also produced four consecutive
first-team All-MWC return specialists in Jeremy Kerley (2008),
Brian Bonner (2007, 2006) and Cory Rodgers (2005).
In the last three seasons, three tight ends (Chad Andrus, Brent
Hecht, Shae Reagan) have been inducted into the National
Football Foundation’s Hampshire Honor Society for academic
excellence.
TCU tight ends totaled seven touchdowns on 33 receptions
in 2006.
Under Sharp’s leadership, Matt Schobel was the second pick
in the third round of the 2002 National Football League draft
and the 67th player selected overall.
In 2004, Cody McCarty garnered first-team all-league honors.
Sharp previously coached at TCU (1991-97) under both Jim
Wacker and Pat Sullivan. He mentored the tight ends for five
years and handled the defensive ends for two seasons. Before
joining the TCU staff on a full-time basis, Sharp served as a
graduate assistant under Wacker.
Sharp was a tight end on TCU’s 1984 team which went 8-3
and earned a trip to the Bluebonnet Bowl. He had a key
touchdown reception in a 32-31 win at Arkansas, the Frogs’
first victory in Fayetteville in 29 years.
In addition to providing outstanding blocking for TCU’s
vaunted running game, Sharp earned All-Southwest
Conference honors in 1984 as he caught 42 passes for 596
yards and seven touchdowns. He spent two years in the NFL
with the Atlanta Falcons before returning to TCU in 1988.
He received his bachelor’s degree in secondary education
from TCU in 1985 and his master’s degree in liberal arts in
1992.
Sharp and his wife, Cindy, both natives of Boerne, Texas, are
the parents of two daughters: Alexandra and Andrea.

Tony Tademy joined the TCU football staff in June 2005.
Tademy has coached at least two All-Mountain West
Conference selections in each of his first four years. Three
Horned Frog linebackers in the last two seasons are now in
the National Football League.
In 2008, Jason Phillips and Robert Henson were both first-
team All-MWC and NFL draft selections. Phillips was the first
pick in the fifth round by the Baltimore Ravens, while Henson
was a sixth-round choice by the Washington Redskins.
Phillips became the first defensive player in MWC history to
be a first- or second-team all-conference selection in four
consecutive seasons. Henson was an honorable-mention pick
his first three years before becoming a first-team honoree as
a senior.
Phillips was named by Dave Campbell’s Texas Football as the
state’s Best Linebacker in 2007, while David Hawthorne, a
three-year starter (2005-07), signed a free-agent contract
with the Seattle Seahawks.
In Tademy’s first season (2005) TCU’s top three linebackers
featured a pair of redshirt freshmen (Phillips and Henson) and
a sophomore (Hawthorne). The Frogs were still able to post
an 11-1 record with a defensive unit that led the nation in
turnover margin (+21), interceptions (26) and takeaways (40).
Phillips became the first freshman defensive player in MWC
history to be named first- or second-team all-conference. He
was also a Freshman All-American.
Prior to arriving at TCU, Tademy spent two seasons as the
defensive coordinator at McKinney (Texas) High School.
Tademy has been in the coaching profession since earning
his bachelor’s degree in general studies from Louisiana Tech
in 1983. While an undergrad, he played linebacker and helped
the Bulldogs to a pair of Independence Bowl appearances.
Tademy’s first full-time assistant coaching stint came at VMI
from 1985-86 when current TCU assistant head coach and
offensive line coach Eddie Williamson was the Keydets’ head
coach.
Tademy coached the 1987 season at Louisiana Tech, serving
as the inside linebackers coach. He later became the offensive
line and specialists coach at Howard University, where he also
coached linebackers and was the recruiting coordinator.
Tademy spent three seasons (1994-96) at the University of
Houston, working with the defensive ends under coach Kim
Helton and helping the Cougars to the 1996 Liberty Bowl.
Tademy returned to the high school ranks as an assistant
coach at Texas City (Texas) High School from 1997-98,
before taking over as the defensive coordinator at Louisiana-
Lafayette from 1999-01. He spent one season as the defensive
coordinator at Blinn College before becoming the defensive
coordinator at McKinney in 2003.
A Jacksonville, Ark., native, Tademy and his wife, Maria, have
two sons: A.J. and Victor.

A veteran of the collegiate coaching ranks, Eddie Williamson is
in his ninth season at TCU as the offensive line coach. He was
given the additional title of assistant head coach in 2002.
Williamson has coached 11 All-Mountain West Conference
selections over the last four seasons. Four of his former TCU
linemen are active in the National Football League.
In 2008, center Blake Schlueter was a first-team All-MWC pick
and a seventh-round choice by the Denver Broncos in the NFL
Draft. Tackles Marshall Newhouse and Marcus Cannon earned
second-team and honorable-mention honors, respectively.
They helped TCU lead the nation in time of possession (35:10)
while setting school records for points scored (437) and
touchdowns (56).
Schlueter was a second-team All-MWC performer in 2007
with Newhouse an honorable-mention choice.
Tackle Herb Taylor was a two-time first-team All-MWC
selection (2005-06) before the Kansas City Chiefs made him
a sixth-round draft pick.
Michael Toudouze, also a tackle, was first-team All-MWC and
a fifth-round selection of the Indianapolis Colts. He earned a
Super Bowl championship ring as a rookie (2006).
Anthony Alabi was a fifth-round pick of the Miami Dolphins
in 2005.
With four new starters on the offensive line in 2006, TCU
allowed just 13 sacks. It was the lowest total in the MWC and
tied for the sixth-best mark nationally. In 2005, with three
new starters, the Frogs surrendered the league’s second-
fewest sacks.
With Williamson’s troops paving the way, TCU has produced a
pair of 1,000-yard rushers in the last eight seasons.
Williamson came to TCU from Wake Forest, where he served
as the offensive coordinator and offensive line coach. He
joined the WFU staff in January 2000.
Williamson also served as an assistant coach at Texas
Southern, Baylor, North Carolina, Wake Forest, South Carolina,
Georgia, Duke and Furman.
Williamson also has experience as a head coach, serving in
that role at VMI from 1985-88.
A part of 16 bowl teams, Williamson’s college coaching career
began soon after graduating from Davidson College in 1974.
A native of Pendleton, S.C., Williamson was a standout
linebacker at Davidson (1971-73). He graduated in 1974 and
went on to earn his master’s degree from Furman in 1976.
Williamson and his wife, Patty, have three children: Eddie III,
Carrie Beth and Tricia.

alBuQueRQue, n.M. (ap) - Andy Dalton ran for two touchdowns as TCU went on to a 26-3 win in the season-opener for both teams.
The Horned Frogs scored on their first three possessions and needed a span of just over four minutes to build a 16-0 lead on the Lobos in the Mountain West Conference game.
Dalton scored on runs of 11 and 4 yards, the second TD set up by Jeremy Kerley’s 53-yard punt return midway through the fourth quarter.
The Lobos only points came from a 28-yard field goal kick by Aho with 10:48 left in the third quarter.
A short punt by first year Lobo kicker Adam Miller gave the Horned Frogs the ball on the New Mexico 30 and set up a four-play drive that ended with Dalton’s 11-yard scoring run.
The Lobos got off one play on their ensuing possession as Donovan Porterie’s pass hit TCU safety Steven Coleman in the chest at the New Mexico 35 and Coleman returned it to the 9. Halfback Joseph Turner scored on second down from the 2.
TCU also got field goals of 50 and 39 yards from Ross Evans.Evans missed a chance to extend TCU’s 16-0 lead when he missed a 20-yard field goal
attempt with 39 seconds left in the first half. That drive was set up by Porterie’s fumble near midfield that was recovered by defensive end Jerry Hughes.

FORt WORtH (ap) - Joseph Turner ran for three touchdowns as TCU scored on its first five possessions on the way to a 67-7 victory over Stephen F. Austin in its highest-scoring game in 76 years.
Turner had a 12-yard TD run and two 4-yard scores for the Frogs (2-0), whose 67 points were one short of the school record set against Austin College in 1932. TCU led 42-7 at halftime in its home opener.
Stephen F. Austin (1-1) was held to only 143 total yards, including three yards on 17 rushing attempts.
In its home opener seven years ago against Northwestern State, another team from the lower-tier Football Championship Subdivision, TCU was upset 27-24 in overtime. The Frogs weren’t going to let that happen again.
Andy Dalton was 11 of 13 passing for 131 yards and ran for an 11-yard TD. He completed all eight of his passes on TCU’s first four scoring drives.
TCU rolled up 525 total yards, 320 on the ground, led by Ryan Christian’s 67 yards on 11 carries.

2008 GAME-BY-GAME RECAPS
FORt WORtH (ap) - Ryan Christian scored the go-ahead touchdown and Steven Coleman made a key interception to help TCU beat Stanford 31-14 in a game moved up six hours because of Hurricane Ike.
Christian, who rushed for 82 yards on 19 carries, gave TCU the lead for good on a 1-yard scoring run with six minutes left in the third.
Stanford appeared to tie the game early in the fourth on Doug Baldwin’s 49-yard punt return for a touchdown. Officials reviewed the play and determined Baldwin stepped out of bounds at the TCU 13.
Three plays later, Coleman intercepted Tavita Pritchard’s pass in the end zone to thwart Stanford’s comeback attempt.
Kickoff was moved up to noon because of the hurricane that hit the Texas coast early Saturday. Despite the earlier start time, it began raining harder in the second half and winds from the outer edge of the storm gusted to more than 30 mph in the fourth quarter.
Richard Sherman returned a blocked punt 21 yards for a touchdown as Stanford rallied from a two-touchdown deficit to tie the game at 14 before halftime.
The Horned Frogs took the lead on their second possession in the second half. Their nine-play, 51-yard drive was capped by Christian’s short run.
TCU quarterback Andy Dalton, who capped the scoring with a 10-yard run, passed for 145 yards and rushed for 91 more.

2008 GAME-BY-GAME RECAPS
FORt cOllIns, colo. (ap) - The top defense in the nation was slow to arrive but quick to recover, leading TCU past Colorado State 13-7 on a chilly afternoon at Hughes Stadium.
The Rams marched right down the field for a touchdown on their first possession, then could hardly find any holes to run through or yards to gain after the catch - when they did manage to hold onto the ball.
After its only airplane trip in a two-month span, the Horned Frogs looked like they had jet lag on CSU’s opening drive, a nine-play, 78-yard march that included 45 yards on the ground, highlighted by Gartrell Johnson’s 4-yard rumble into the end zone.
But the Rams managed just 15 yards rushing on their four subsequent first-half drives and the Horned Frogs took a 13-7 lead into the locker room after CSU’s Kory Sperry and Rashaun Greer dropped long touchdown passes from quarterback Billy Farris.
The Rams went to backup quarterback Klay Kubiak in the third quarter but they couldn’t get close to the end zone in seven second-half possessions.
They had minus-49 yards rushing in the second half and finished with just 11 yards on 28 carries.
The Horned Frogs came into the game leading the nation in run defense, allowing just 22.3 yards a game, total defense (208.8) and fewest first downs per game (10). They were also tops in time of possession (37:09).
And after that first drive, they lived up to their reputation.Aaron Brown scored on a 6-yard run and Joseph Turner punched it in from 3 yards out for
TCU. The kick following Brown’s TD was blocked.One play before Brown’s TD, cornerback Nick Oppenneer was hanging on quarterback
Marcus Jackson’s back but couldn’t bring him down and Jackson somehow completed a 5-yard pass to his tight end on fourth-and-1 from the 11.

FORt WORtH, texas (ap) - Andy Dalton threw two touchdown passes in his return to the lineup and the Horned Frogs sacked Max Hall six times in a 32-7 victory that snapped the ninth-ranked Cougars’ 16-game winning streak that was the longest in major college football.
The Frogs scored on their first three drives, twice after turnovers by Hall, for a 17-0 lead -- scoring as many points in 16 minutes as BYU had allowed its last 16 quarters. That four-game stretch included consecutive lopsided shutouts of UCLA and Wyoming.
Dalton, who missed the last two games with a knee injury, threw a 25-yard touchdown to Jimmy Young on his first pass. He added a 12-yarder to Walter Bryant just before halftime, the receiver making a nifty grab and getting a foot down in the back corner of the end zone -- a catch confirmed by replay -- for a 23-0 lead.
Dalton finished 12-of-19 for 170 yards and Kerley ran nine times for 77 yards. Jerry Hughes had four sacks for TCU and forced two fumbles.
On BYU’s opening drive of the game, Daryl Washington dropped a possible interception near the 50 with a wide-open field to the end zone ahead of him. But two plays later, Hughes hit Hall from behind, stripping the ball and TCU recovered at the Cougars 40.
Kerley scored on a 16-yard run, avoiding a BYU defender just past the line and then zigzagging through the middle of the field virtually untouched for a 14-0 lead, ending a 72-yard drive on which he also had 24-yard run.
TCU led 17-0 on Ross Evans’ 21-yard field goal a play after an apparent interception was overturned by replay. That drive included a 21-yard run by Kerley.
Joseph Turner, who ran 19 times for 70 yards, scored on a 5-yard run at the end of the third quarter for the final touchdown.

las VeGas (ap) - Andy Dalton threw three touchdown passes to lead No. 12 TCU past UNLV 44-14.
Dalton completed 16-of-29 for 151 yards and rushed for 52 yards on nine carries. He had nine touchdown passes in the three games since coming back from a two-game absence because of injury.
The Frogs ran for 259 yards, led by Aaron Brown’s 60.
UNLV managed only 108 against the No. 1 run defense in the country. TCU was allowing 10.4 points per game and 1.2 yards per rush coming into the game.
TCU’s first drive lasted 17 plays capped by a Dalton 1-yard pass to Justin Watts with 5:21 left in the first quarter.
The Horned Frogs then went up 14-0 thanks in part to Robert Henson’s first-quarter interception of Omar Clayton’s pass. Henson’s second pick of the season at the Rebels’ 34, led to Luke Shiver’s 3-yard touchdown run up the middle with 3:09 left in the first quarter.
The Frogs went up 24-7 at halftime after Dalton found Evan Frosch wide open on the left side from 4 yards with :30 left in the half.
Brown’s 23-yard run down the left side added to the lead in third quarter, and Jimmy Young caught Dalton’s last touchdown pass from 13 yards with 2:38 left in the third quarter.

salt laKe cItY (ap) - Brian Johnson threw a 9-yard touchdown pass to Freddie Brown with 48 seconds left to cap an 80-yard drive that kept Utah’s BCS hopes alive with a 13-10 victory over TCU. The Utes, who improved to 10-0 for the second time in school history, were swarmed at midfield by the fans who made Rice-Eccles Stadium shake when Johnson rallied Utah to its first touchdown and saved the Utes’ postseason hopes. Johnson threw for 230 yards for the Utes, who recovered on defense after allowing TCU to gain 202 yards in the first quarter. The Horned Frogs missed two field goal attempts in the fourth quarter either of which would have put TCU up by seven. Ross Evans bounced one kick off the left upright, then with 2:48 left he was wide right on a 35-yard attempt. Utah got the ball back on the 20 and Johnson led the Utes’ comeback. TCU nearly had the drive stopped, but on fourth-and-5 Johnson completed an 11 yard pass to Brown to the Frogs’ 15. Two plays later, Johnson found Brown on a slant for the winning score. Robert Johnson sealed it with an interception in the final seconds and Utah won despite getting outgained 416-275. Aaron Brown ran for 106 yards on 15 carries and Andy Dalton passed for 251 yards, but the Frogs hurt themselves with penalties and untimely breakdowns. TCU was called for 11 penalties and allowed two sacks on third downs that took the Frogs out of field goal range twice. Jason Phillips was one of three Frog defenders with 10 tackles, which included a sack.

FORt WORtH, texas (ap) - Andy Dalton threw two touchdown passes and ran for two more scores and the No. 15 Horned Frogs’ defense mostly smothered Air Force’s usually potent rushing attack to win their regular season finale 44-10.
Air Force was held to 150 yards rushing - 111 of that coming on only two runs. The Falcons were averaging 279.7 yards per game, fourth-best among FBS teams.
In Gary Patterson’s 99th game as the Frogs’ coach, they drove 60 yards on six plays on the opening possession and led for good after Luke Shivers scored on a 3-yard run only 2:22 into the game.
The Frogs gained more than 10 yards on eight plays in the first quarter, and led 10-0 after Ross Evans’ 32-yard field goal.
Dalton, who finished 21-of-27 for 321 yards, had an 8-yard keeper for a touchdown and threw a 22-yard pass to Bart Johnson to give TCU a 24-3 halftime lead. Dalton hit Walter Bryant for another 22-yard score on the Frogs’ first second-half possession, then ran 7 yards for a TD.
Air Force got its only touchdown in the fourth quarter when Jared Tew busted through the middle of the line into a wide-open gap for a 57-yard run.

2008 POinSETTiA BOWL RECAP
san DIeGO (ap) -- TCU’s Joseph Turner dove into the end zone for the winning touchdown, and LaDainian Tomlinson went nuts on the sideline.
It was a good night to be a Horned Frog, current and past.
Turner’s 17-yard run midway through the fourth quarter gave the No. 11 Horned Frogs their first lead of the night, which they preserved for a 17-16 victory over No. 9 and previously undefeated Boise State in the Poinsettia Bowl.
Boise State (12-1) was trying to finish 13-0 for the second time in three seasons. The Broncos took a 10-0 lead on Ian Johnson’s 20-yard touchdown run midway through the first quarter, but their high-scoring offense bogged down against TCU’s fast, aggressive defense.
TCU (11-2) piled up yards if not points until finally wearing down the Broncos’ defense in the fourth quarter. The Horned Frogs moved 80 yards in 10 plays on the winning drive, with Turner finishing it off by shedding a tackle inside the 5-yard line and diving into the end zone for a 17-13 lead.
Tomlinson, the former TCU standout in his eighth season with the San Diego Chargers, jumped in celebration and pumped his fist near the TCU bench.
There wouldn’t be a crazy, victorious finish for Johnson and the Broncos as there was two years ago in the memorable, highly entertaining overtime win over Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl.
After Turner’s TD, Boise State got to the TCU 14 before having to settle for Kyle Brotzman’s 33-yard field goal to pull to 17-16.
The Broncos got the ball back with 6 seconds left on their 33 and tried to lateral the ball after a catch, but Jeremy Childs’ desperation flip was grabbed by TCU’s Matt Panfil.
TCU outgained Boise State 472 yards to 250.BSU came in averaging 39 points and 456 yards,
one of the benefits of dominating the Western Athletic Conference.
Johnson scored on a 20-yard run midway through the first quarter. It was his 58th career rushing TD, breaking former San Diego State star Marshall Faulk’s WAC record and giving the Broncos a 10-0 lead.
Broncos quarterback Kellen Moore faked a sweep handoff to Childs, then handed to Johnson, who broke outside and found an open field. Officials brought to the ball to the sideline for Johnson to keep.
The Broncos needed the cushion, because TCU’s fast, aggressive defense finally clamped down.
Johnson is best known as scoring the winning 2-point conversion against Oklahoma on a “Statue of Liberty” play, then proposing to his cheerleader girlfriend moments later.
Johnson’s wife, Chrissy, spoke with Tomlinson on the sideline after doing a TV interview during the first quarter.
Boise State defensive end Bryon Hout intercepted Andy Dalton midway through the second quarter, and his 62-yard return included a nice spin move to get away from one TCU player and a stiff arm against another Horned Frog. Hout was a running back in high school.
Hout returned the ball to the TCU 11, but the Broncos had to settle for Brotzman’s 24-yard field goal and a 13-0 lead.
TCU finally scored on Aaron Brown’s 16-yard run just before halftime.
Brown had 102 yards on 14 carries while Turner had 83 yards on 16 rushes.

2009 HORNED FROG FOOTBALL 2009 HORNED FROG FOOTBALL
GeneralTCU is ready to embark upon its 113th year of Horned Frog football. Through all the years, with the ex cep tion of 1900, Frog ballclubs have com pet ed on an or ga nized basis. Even during the war years, as well as through the Great Depression, each fall TCU football squads have done bat tle on the gridiron.
BeGinninGsThe newfangled game of foot ball, created in the East, made a quiet and un of cial ap pear ance on the TCU campus (AddRan Col lege as it was then known and lo cat ed in Waco, Tex as, or nearby Thorp Spring) in the fall of 1896. It was then that sev er al of the col lege’s more ro bust stu dents, along with the en thu si as tic sup port of a cou ple of young “profs,” Addison Clark, Jr., and A.C. Easley, band ed to gether to form a team. Three games were ac tu al ly played that season ... all af ter Thanks giv ing. The first con test was an 86 vic to ry over Toby’s Busi ness College of Waco and the other two games were with the Houston Heavy weights, a town team.
By 1897 the new sport had progressed and AddRan enlisted its first coach, Joe J. Field, to direct the team. Field’s ballclub won three games that autumn, including a first victory over Texas A&M. The only loss was to the Univer si ty of Tex as, 1810. Those games with the Aggies and Longhorns launched foot ball feuds that car ried forth for 99 years. In 1899, the first game with Baylor was played to launch still an other tra di tion al ri val ry. By 1902, the name of the school had been changed to Texas Chris tian Uni ver si ty. The nick name, “Horned Frogs,” had been added a few years earlier because “of the abun dance of those crea tures around campus.”
Tiaa eraIn 1909, the uni ver si ty be came a member of the old TIAA (Tex as In ter col le giate Ath let ic As so ci a tion). Sev er al TCU teams re cord ed outstanding records, in clud ing the 1912 Horned Frog unit, which had an 81 mark with the lone loss coming against Tex as, a team that the Frogs did not beat until 1929.
In 1920, a postWorld War I team produced TCU’s best record to date, win ning nine straight games in the regular season. How ev er, a post season bowl (the Dixie Bowl) con test was booked in Fort Worth with the famed “Prayin’ Colonels” of Centre Col lege. That proved to be a mis take as Centre trounced the Frogs, 637. L.R. (Dutch) Meyer was an end on that TCU grid elev en.
sWC early yearsIn 1923, TCU was ad mit ted to the stillin fant Southwest Athlet ic Con fer ence, a league which was des tined to be come the ma jor collegiate league of the South west. In their ini tial sea son in the SWC, the Horned Frogs played three games and posted a record of two wins and one loss.
Though a young mem ber of the SWC, over the next few years the Horned Frogs still of ered some ex cel lent re sults. In 1924, they won one and lost five games to fin ish in the cel lar for the only time until 1953. In 1929, under Francis Schmidt, TCU claimed its first SWC title. Led by a bril liant young quarter back, Howard Grubbs, who later became the ex ec u tive sec re tary of the South west Con ference and the Horned Frogs’ first in a line of great passers, TCU won four straight league games.
The Frogs clinched their first ti tle with a 77 tie against SMU in the final contest of ‘29. During Schmidt’s re gime, which last ed through the 1933 campaign, the Frogs were dou ble tough. They fin ished third in 1930, sec ond in ‘31 and won the SWC title again in 1932 with a perfect 60 record. It was the first time that one Southwest Con fer ence team had de feated all the oth ers, since a round robin had not been played in any of the previous seasons.
DuTCh Meyer eraIn 1934, with Schmidt being lured to Ohio State, Leo R. (Dutch) Meyer be came the Horned Frog grid coach. For the next 19 years, Meyer turned out top teams and pro duced a bevy of in di vid u al standouts, in clud ing Sammy Baugh, Davey O’Brien, Ki Aldrich, Darrell Lester and many oth ers.During Baugh’s college days, the Frogs won 12, lost one in 1935; and won nine, lost two and tied a pair in 1936. As a junior, Baugh led TCU to a 32 victory in the Sugar Bowl and a national title, but was never able to help the Frogs claim a SWC title.
His successor, Davey O’Brien, took over lead er ship of the Frogs for the 1937 and 1938 sea sons, and during his senior year, paced the Purples to their best record in history. That mag nifi cent ‘38 ballclub was con sid ered one of the Southwest Con fer ence’s finest some 50 years later. That fall, Meyer’s Horned Frogs rolled to 11 straight wins, in clud ing a 157 tri umph over Carnegie Tech in the Sugar Bowl. The club outscored its op po nents – 269 to 60 – and never found it self be hind, ex cept briefly in the Sugar Bowl en coun ter. After the Sugar Bowl, the Frogs were crowned national cham pi ons.
In 1941, TCU fin ished a solid sec ond place in the SWC and won another cham pi on ship in ‘44. The Dutchman’s final league crown came in 1951, two years be fore he became fulltime athletics di rec tor (Meyer would later re tire as TCU’s A.D. in 1963).
aBe MarTin eraWhen Meyer retired from coaching in 1953, his backfield as sis tant, Othol (Abe) Mar tin, took over the coach ing reins. Abe in stalled the popular Tformation, and in just three short years had found the cham pi on ship for mu la. His 1955 TCU ballclub, led by AllAmer i can Jim Swink, waltzed to nine vic to ries in 10 games, the only loss be ing to Tex as A&M. In 1958, Martin found the vic to ry for mu la again with good quarterbacking and defense. In 1959, the Frogs disproved the crit ics to tie Texas and Ar kan sas for the crown, post ing a 51 league record.
During his 14year re gime, Mar tin com piled a 76647 mark in Frogland, di rect ed the Pur ples to five postseason bowl games, and pro duced seven AllAmer i cans.
The 1970sThe decade of the 1970s was, for the most part, one of disappointment for the fans of TCU football. Fred Taylor, the suc ces sor to Abe Martin in 1966, guided Horned Frog teams through four seasons, with the best record being a modest 46. Jim Pittman was hired from a successful bowl campaign at Tulane, but tragedy struck mid way through the 1971 season when Pittman was felled by a fatal heart attack during the Baylor game. His chief aide, Billy Tohill, took over and pi lot ed TCU through the 1973 sea son. Then another former Frog great, Jim Shofner, returned from the NFL and
Slingin’ Sammy Baugh (No. 45) led TCU to its first of two national championships in the 1930s under Head Coach Dutch Meyer.

led the Horned Frogs until 1977. The coach ing door then swung open for F. A. Dry, who brought some impressive credentials from Tulsa. Dry’s TCU teams became known for hardball defense and im pres sive aerial dis plays, but a 38 mark in 1982 proved to be Dry’s best in six seasons and yet another change of direction was mandated.
JiM WaCker eraFrom 1983 through 1991, Horned Frog grid fortunes were in the hands of former NCAA Division II coach ing leg end Jim Wacker, who left opulent marks as well as two pairs of national cham pi on ship trophies at both South west Texas State and Texas Lutheran. Wacker’s first cam paign at TCU produced only 182 re sults, but he steered the Horned Frogs to a dramatic 84 turn around in 1984 en route to a Blue b on net Bowl date. Several na tion al, as well as Southwest Conference Coach of the Year honors, ul ti mate ly were awarded to the bubbly Wacker. However, an NCAA probation for discovered infractions in 1985 afected the Frogs’ rise over the next several sea sons.
PaT sullivan eraOn January 2, 1992, Pat Sullivan was introduced as the 27th head coach in TCU football history. Sullivan prob a bly is best re mem bered as a college quarterbacking great at Auburn, where he won the Heisman Trophy in 1971. Sullivan instilled confidence along with an ap pre ci a tion for selfdiscipline into the TCU grid makeup during his initial campaign with the Horned Frogs.
Though the Sullivan influence on TCU’s program was obvious from the outset, tangible proof of his impact in Frogland became pronounced during 1994. For the Horned Frog faithful it was a campaign of sweet memories and bona fide successes beginning in early fall with the ofcial dedication of TCU’s Walsh Complex, an ultraimpressive athletic training and weightconditioning center. Powered by the most prolific ofense in the Southwest Conference, an attack spearheaded by quarterback Max Knake and tailback Andre Davis, the Frogs fashioned a 74 regularseason mark. En route, they captured a share of the school’s ninth SWC football championship, along with an invitation to the Poulan/WeedEater Independence Bowl in Shreveport, La.
TCU saw a major increase in attendance thanks to its succss on the field in 1994. The increase of 11,062 folks per game (a 42.5 percent increase) was one of the nation’s best that season. Sullivan resigned in November 1997 after six seasons at the Horned Frog grid helm.
The WaC yearsTCU Football in 1996 was almost a doubledose of euphoria. Not only did it mark the 100thyear celebration for the sport, but the University ofcially became a new member of the expanded Western Athletic Conference as well. The Horned Frog program joined teams from Rice, SMU and Tulsa to form Quadrant 1 of the Mountain Division. Quadrant 2 members were Air Force, UNLV, Colorado State and Wyoming. Pacific Division members of the WAC were New Mexico, UTEP, BYU, along with Fresno State, San Jose State, Hawai’i and San Diego State.
Dennis FranChiOne eraIn three seasons under Dennis Franchione, the TCU football program took a giant leap forward. In his first season, Fran led the Frogs to a 75 record, which included an upset win over USC in the Sun Bowl.
The Frogs, who were 110 in 1997 under Pat Sullivan, tied Louisville for the biggest turnaround in the country with the sixwin improvement in 1998. Although many believed the Frogs stood no chance, Franchione guided the Frogs to a 2819 win over the vaunted Trojans. The victory was the first bowl win since 1957, when TCU defeated Syracuse in the Cotton Bowl.
Then in 1999, TCU claimed a share of the WAC title, earning a trip to the inaugural Mobile Alabama Bowl, where TCU knocked of East Carolina, 2814. Tailback LaDainian Tomlinson led the country in rushing in 1999, averaging over 168 yards per game for a season total of 1,850 yards.The Frogs came back with one of the best seasons in school history as the new millennium got underway. Moving as high in the polls as No. 9 and carrying the nation’s longest winning streak for a stretch, the Frogs put together a 102 campaign. Tomlinson again led the nation in rushing, this time with over 2,000 yards, en route to the Doak Walker Award. Following the season he was the fifth player selected in the NFL Draft.

COnFerenCe usaThe Frogs took on a new look in 2001 as they made the move into Conference USA. The 11member football league included Army, Cincinnati, East Carolina, Houston, Louisville, Memphis, Southern Miss, South Florida, Tulane and UAB. Despite the change in leagues, TCU continued its strong run with a school record six consecutive bowl game appearances and backtoback top 25 finishes for the first time since the 1950s.
Highlighting TCU’s fouryear stint in Conference USA was the 2002 CUSA CoChampionship, which the Frogs shared with Cincinnati.
MOunTain WesT COnFerenCeTCU began Mountain West Conference play in 2005 and immediately posted a recordbreaking campaign.The Frogs, picked to finish sixth, went 80 in their debut season to claim their first outright conference title since 1958. TCU became just the third team in MWC history to go undefeated and the first to be 80. The Frogs are 257 in their opening four seasons of MWC play, which ranks second among all league teams.
Gary PaTTersOn eraGary Patterson has posted five 10win seasons in the last seven years, including four 11win campaigns since 2003. No other head coach in TCU history has reached 10 victories more than twice.
In just eight years, Patterson has a 7327 record to place third on the Horned Frogs’ career victory chart. His .730 winning percentage is fourth alltime among TCU coaches with more than 20 games under their belt. Patterson has had TCU ranked in the final Top 25 in five of his eight campaigns, including two top10 finishes in the last four seasons.
In his tenure, Patterson has coached 93 AllConference selections, six AllAmericans, 10 Freshman AllAmericans and one Academic AllAmerican. He has had 21 players drafted with 41 in NFL camps. Patterson was the 2002 Conference USA and 2005 Mountain West Conference Coach of the Year. He was also a 2003 finalist for Bobby Dodd and Eddie Robinson National Coach of the Year honors.
TCU has garnered national attention in nearly every season. The 2003 Frogs won their opening 10 games in making a BCS run, while the 2005 squad opened the campaign with a 1710 victory at No. 5 Oklahoma. The Frogs are 52 versus Big 12 opponents the last four seasons. TCU has recorded victories in the 2002 Liberty Bowl, 2005 Houston Bowl, 2006 Poinsettia Bowl, 2007 Texas Bowl and 2008 Poinsettia Bowl.

1929 (No. 7)TCU’s first Southwest Conference championship team, led by halfback Cy Leland, quarterback Howard Grubbs and AllAmerica guard Mike Brumbelow, finished the season undefeated (901) and was placed No. 7 in the nation in an unofcial AP ranking. The familiar AP poll of today was not originated until 1936.
1932 (No. 4)The undefeated Horned Frogs (1001) rose to true national prominence in ‘32 as they romped through the Southwest Conference race with ease and wound up No. 4 in the country in the final rankings of Illustrated Football magazine, the game’s leading authority of the era. Six members of the starting line, anchored by AllAmerica guard Johnny Vaught, were named allconference, as were both halfbacks, Blanard Spearman and Red Oliver. When Pittsburgh was invited to the Rose Bowl over TCU, the Frogs tried to arrange a postseason game against Tulane, another highly regarded team, but nothing came of it.
1933 (No. 9)Coach Francis Schmidt produced three teams in the nation’s Top 10 during his five seasons at TCU. The 1933 squad was the third. Paced by halfback Charlie Casper, the Frogs rolled to a 921 record but closed fast with stunning victories over Texas (300), Rice (263) and SMU (266). This finish impressed the syndicated sportswriter Grantland Rice so much he put TCU No. 9 in the final national rankings of his popular annual ratings service known as Grantland Rice’s Cities Service Football Guide.
1935 (No. 1 • NatioNal ChampioNs)As a TCU lineup produced two AllAmericans for the first time – quarterback Sammy Baugh and center Darrell Lester – the Frogs reached the zenith of a national championship in the thrilling season of ‘35. The Frogs were tabbed No. 1 after the bowl games by the Williamson Rating System, the most authoritative poll in the land at the time. TCU wound up No. 1 after its 32 victory over powerful LSU in the Sugar Bowl. The Frogs’ only loss had been a narrow one (2014) to SMU in “The Game of the Century.” But when the Mustangs were upset by Stanford 70 in the Rose Bowl on New Year’s Day, the same afternoon that TCU whipped LSU in New Orleans, Williamson crowned TCU No. 1.
1936 (No. 5)Injuries, freaky upsets and a couple of foulweather scoreless ties couldn’t keep Sammy Baugh from repeating as an AllAmerican and leading the Frogs to No. 5 in the nation in the final Williamson Rating System. Along the way, Baugh knocked of conference champion Arkansas, rudely upset the nation’s last remaining perfectrecord team, Santa Clara, and then won a duel with Marquette in the inaugural Cotton Bowl Classic. All of that left the Frogs with a 922 record.
1938 (No. 1 • NatioNal ChampioNs)A dream season. This incredible Frog team handily went 110, including the 157 victory over No. 5 Carnegie Tech in the Sugar Bowl. TCU captured every meaningful No. 1 ranking – AP, Williamson, Helms – turned out eight allconference players on various selections, and three AllAmericans, quarterback Davey O’Brien, center Ki Aldrich, and tackle I.B. Hale. O’Brien received the Heisman, Maxwell and Camp trophies. As the true national champions, the Frogs outpolled three other undefeated elevens in ‘38 – Tennessee, Oklahoma and Duke.
1941 (No. 10)Quarterback cohorts Kyle Gillespie and Emery Nix led the Frogs to a 721 record with the aid of AllAmerica tackle Derrell Palmer and allconference end Bruce Alford. Their only losses were to top10 teams, No. 6 Fordham and No. 9 Texas A&M. But later, Nix sparked TCU to a memorable 147 upset of No. 1ranked Texas. Ultimately, at the end of the regular season, the Williamson Rating System thought highly enough of the Frogs to rank them No. 10 in the nation. They became the first Southwest Conference team to play in the Orange Bowl, where they lost a wild one to Georgia, 4026.
1951 (No. 10)Sophomore Ray McKown, running and passing out of the old Dutch Meyer spread formation, carried the Frogs to their most surprising conference title with only a 64 record. Still, these Frogs were ranked No. 10 in the nation in the UPI poll at the season’s end. In so doing, McKown earned AllAmerica honors, as did Keith Flowers and tackle Doug Conaway. In the Cotton Bowl game, TCU outgained Bear Bryant’s Kentucky team by a huge margin, but saw no fewer than five drives stall inside Kentucky’s 10yard line, and were outscored, 207.
1955 (No. 5) Jim Swink set rushing and scoring records galore as the Frogs loitered the whole season among the nation’s elite and won the Southwest Conference championship. In the end, with a 91 regular season record, they were ranked No. 3 by the Litkenhouse System, No. 5 by UPI, and No. 6 by AP. Swink was a unanimous AllAmerica halfback and runnerup for the Heisman Trophy and center Hugh Pitts also made AllAmerica.
1958 (No. 9) The Frogs breezed to an 82 record and the conference crown behind the passing of Hunter Enis, the running of Jack Spikes and Marvin Lasater, and the line play of AllAmerica tackle Don Floyd. TCU was ranked No. 9 in the final UPI poll and No. 10 by the AP. In the Cotton Bowl game they fought undefeated and No. 6ranked Air Force to a 00 tie.
1959 (No. 7) These Frogs basically put three AllAmericas on the field with fullback Jack Spikes and tackles Don Floyd, a repeat selection, and Bob Lilly, who would be a unanimous choice in ‘60. They bruised their way to another 82 record, tying Texas and Arkansas for the conference title. When all the votes were in from the final polls, TCU was ranked No. 7 by AP and No. 8 by UPI.
2000 (No. 18 EspN/Usa today; No. 21 ap) LaDainian Tomlinson became one of college football’s greatest ball carriers – only the second player in history to rush for more than 2,000 yards in a season and more than 5,000 in a career. Behind “LT,” the Frogs sped to a 102 season record and the WAC championship. This performance enticed the Dunkel Index, one of the eight selectors for the Bowl Championship Series, to rate the Frogs No. 7 in the nation, their highest ranking in 40 seasons.
2002 (No. 22 EspN/Usa today; No. 23 ap) After a seasonopening overtime loss at Cincinnati, the Frogs reeled of 10 wins in their next 11 games. The Frogs gained a share of the Conference USA title and posted an AXA Liberty Bowl win over Colorado State. Linebacker LaMarcus McDonald, the league’s Defensive Player of the Year, led a squad that ranked first in the nation in both total defense and in stopping the run.
2003 (No. 24 EspN/Usa today; No. 25 ap) The Frogs reeled of 10 straight wins to open the season, climbing as high as No. 10 in the national rankings. Their success, which included five threepoint wins, caught the attention of the nation, as they moved to sixth in the BCS standings, the highest ranking ever for a school from a nonBCS conference. A late season loss at Southern Miss kept the Frogs from winning their secondstraight conference title. The Horned Frogs hosted nationallyranked Boise State in the inaugural PlainsCapital Fort Worth Bowl and dropped an exciting 3431 contest. Nick Browne was the Conference USA Special Teams Player of the Year and earned AllAmerica accolades. Defensive end Bo Schobel set a school record for sacks while earning secondteam AllAmerica honors from the Associated Press. Head coach Gary Patterson was one of three finalists for the Eddie Robinson Coach of the Year honors.
2005 (No. 9 Usa today; No. 11 ap) TCU (111, 80) closed the season ranked ninth by USA Today for its highest appearance in a final poll since finishing seventh in the 1959 campaign. The Frogs, one of just seven teams in the nation with 11 wins, concluded the year with 10 straight victories. It was the secondlongest winning streak in the nation behind only national champion Texas (20). TCU opened and closed 2005 with victories over Big 12 bowl teams, winning at Oklahoma and then defeating Iowa State. Overall, the Frogs were 50 against bowl teams. TCU led the nation in interceptions (26), takeaways (40) and turnover margin (1.75, +21). TCU set a singleseason school record with 50 touchdowns, while its 398 points scored ranked second in Frog history. TCU, in its first season of Mountain West Conference play, became just the third team in league history to post an undefeated record (80). In the process, TCU captured its first outright league championship since sweeping through the Southwest Conference en route to the 1938 national title. TCU paced the Mountain West Conference with 18 allconference selections with Cory Rodgers a consensus AllAmerican at kick returner. Gary Patterson was the MWC Coach of the Year with tailback Aaron Brown named Freshman of the Year. Linebacker Jason Phillips and defensive end Tommy Blake were Freshman and Sophomore AllAmericans, respectively. Phillips, a secondteam selection, became the first freshman defensive player in league history to be first or secondteam AllMWC.
2006 (No. 21 Usa today; No. 22 ap)TCU (112, 62) posted its fourth 10win season in the last five years. The Frogs became one of only five teams in the nation to reach 11 victories three times in the last four campaigns. With victories over Baylor and Texas Tech, TCU improved to 40 against Big 12 opponents in the last two seasons and 81 in its past nine games against teams from BCS conferences. The Frogs closed the year by winning their final eight games for the fourthlongest current streak in the nation. Earlier in the season, in a carryover from 2005, TCU won 13 in a row for the longest winning streak in the country. The Frogs finished the campaign ranked 21st by the Associated Press and 22nd in the USA Today poll. It represented the fifth time in the past seven years that TCU closed the season in the top 25. The Frogs ranked second nationally in total defense (234.9 yards per game) and run defense (60.8 yards per game) while placing third in scoring defense (12.3 points per game). TCU was one of three teams nationally to not allow a 100yard rushing game by an opposing running back. Ofensively, the Frogs were ninth nationally in rushing (194.6 yards per game) and 17th in total ofense (408.5 yards per game). Thirteen Frogs combined for a total of 14 AllMWC selections. Safety Brian Bonner was a firstteam pick as a return specialist and a secondteam choice on defense. TCU placed four players on the firstteam defense, including unanimous selection Tommy Blake at defensive end.
2008 (No. 7 Usa today; No. 7 ap) TCU finished with its highest national ranking in half a century when it appeared at No. 7 in the final release of the Associated Press and USA Today polls. The Frogs reached 10 wins for the fifth time in seven years with an 112 record. The only losses came at the hands of thenNo. 2 Oklahoma, which played in the BCS Championship Game, and Utah, the nation’s only undefeated team at 130. A Poinsettia Bowl win over previouslyunbeaten Boise State capped of the program’s most successful season of the modern era. The Horned Frogs featured the nation’s topranked defensive unit in 2008. TCU led the nation in total defense for the third time in nine seasons, surrendering just 217.8 yards per game, in addition to topping the country in run defense (47.1 ypg). Only six opponents surpassed 28 yards rushing against the Frogs, while just six teams reached 200 yards of total ofense. Junior defensive end Jerry Hughes was a consensus firstteam AllAmerica selection after leading the nation with 15 sacks and six forced fumbles. He was also a finalist for the Bronko Nagurski Award, which honors the nation’s top defensive player. Hughes was one of a schoolrecord 18 Frogs who were selected AllMWC, including four defensive firstteamers.

raGs MaTTheWs (1925-27)Raymond (Rags) Matthews became the first player in TCU football history to earn AllAmerica honors in 1927, during his second straight AllSouthwest Conference season as an end. Matthews was some what of a rags to rich es story. A prod uct of Poly tech nic High School of Fort Worth, he was re gard ed as a big and awk ward but un usu al ly aggressive recruit. As a sophomore, he was used at guard. Prior to his junior year, Rags was shifted to end. He became the third per son in TCU annals to earn varsity letters in four sports. Before picking up his diploma, Matthews had nu mer als for foot ball, bas ket ball, base ball and track. “The Raggedy Man,” as he was called by some scribes, made a rep u ta tion for himself and his school with his taunt ing, ver bal challenges to opposing players.

Darrel lesTer (1933-35)One of TCU’s alltime twoway line performers, Darrell “Iron Man” Lester carved his niche into SWC football lore during the early 1930s. Called “Iron Man” because of his burning desire to play every second, Lester anchored the Horned Frog football team from 1933 to 1035,winning a total of 30 ball games, including captaining the 1935 121 squad. A native of Jacksboro, Texas, the 220pound Lester not only was a consensuschoice AllAmerican selection in 1934 – the University’s first ever– but he repeated those honors after the 1935 season, becoming the Southwest Conference’s first twotime All America player (1934 and 1935). Lester helped TCU to a stirring 32 Sugar Bowl victory over LSU. Lester performed for a pair of seasons with the Green Bay Packers (1937 and 1938) before a shoulder injury forced his early retirement from the sport. A founder of the Bluebonnet Bowl, he was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1988.
Cy lelanD (1928-30)Cy Leland stands out as one of the most successful multisport athletes in TCU history, as he ranks as one of the school’s best both on the football field and on the track. An AllSouthwest Conference halfback on the Frogs’ 1929 unbeaten conference championship team, Leland rushed for 100 yards four times in his career and three times in 1929. His 13 rushing touchdowns that season stood as a school record for 26 years, while his 17 career scores sat at the top of the TCU career charts until 1956. He led the nation in 1929 with a 7.2 yards per attempt rushing average, and his 93yard punt return for a touchdown against Baylor that season remains the school record. Despite his football exploits, Leland’s crowning athletic achievment came on the track, as he tied the world record in the 100yard dash with a mark of 9.4 seconds at the 1930 Kansas Relays.
JiMMy laWrenCe (1933-35)Jimmy Lawrence may be the most underrated player in the history of Frog football, playing his most brilliant football in the shadow of the great Sam Baugh. Lawrence had three great seasons for TCU, leading the team in rushing in 1933 and 1935 and in scoring in 1934 and 1935, while also tying as leading receiver in 1935. The native of Harlingen, Texas, was described as “the heart of the Frogs’ power attack and one of Sam Baugh’s best targets in the forward pass.” Primarily a halfback, Lawrence also served as the team’s punter and played safety on defense. He was named AllSouthwest Conference as a sophomore and as a senior. Legend has it that he would have made it as a junior if he hadn’t punched out the umpire in a game that season. Lawrence played professionally for the Chicago Bears from 193638 and for the Green Bay Packers from 193941.

all-TiMe TCu leGenDsDuTCh Meyer (heaD COaCh 1934-52)
L.R. (Dutch) Meyer ranks as one of college football’s true coaching legends, leading the Horned Frogs as head coach from 1934 to 1953 and then as the director of athletics from 195063. Under his guidance, the Frogs won two national championships (1935 and 1938) and a trio of Southwest Conference titles. During that 20year period “The Saturday Fox” – a master of the major upset – helped TCU to a 1388215 record as well as posting an 8571 varsity baseball mark. An innovator, inspirational orator, and football tactician of immense talents, Meyer introduced to college football the spread ofense, thus enhancing the passing game with the help of two of the greatest passers in the game: Davey O’Brien and Sammy Baugh. Meyer spent his entire career at TCU, gaining the nickname in the Fort Worth area of “Mr. Football.” He began his Horned Frog career as the freshman coach in 1923 before gaining the head coaching position in 1934. He led TCU to seven bowl games.
saM BauGh (1934-36)Perhaps no other play er made a more pow er ful impact on foot ball in the Southwest than did Slingin’ Sammy Baugh of TCU during the 1930s. A flaw less passer, a dan dy punt er and a gift ed de fen sive back, the an gu lar Baugh was called by Dutch Meyer “the great est ath lete I ever saw.” Gen er al ly con sid ered the first of the great passers in col lege foot ball, all Baugh did was re write the SWC and TCU passing and punt ing record books and sprinkle in a few interception (not thrown but caught) marks for good measure. Some of his school records stood for over 50 years. In three years (19343536), Baugh, whose jersey was formally retired by TCU in 1993, deftly helped the Horned Frogs to 29 vic to ries, a Sugar Bowl crown and a Cotton Bowl title. The Sweetwater, Texas native was a unanimous twotime AllSWC selection and a consensus AllAmerican in 1936. He later became a ninetime AllPro during his 16 illustrious sea sons with the Washington Redskins. Baugh is a member of every col le giate and pro fes sion al football hall of fame.
Davey O’Brien (1936-38)Davey O’Brien became the first person to win the Heisman, Walter Camp and Maxwell trophies as the nation’s outstanding football player. After directing the Horned Frogs to the national championship in 1938, he was the first winner of the coveted Heisman to come from the Southwest Conference. He did it all – running, passing, placekicking, returning kicks, punting and intercepting passes. O’Brien held national records for number of punts returned in a season (58 in 1937); total punt and kickof returns in a season (72 in 1937); and total punt returns in a career (116). He held many other passing and total ofense records that slowly have been broken through the years. He led the nation in passing both in 1937 and 1938, and was the top in total ofense across the United States in 1938. The Horned Frogs’ amazing quarterback threw a touchdown pass in every game in 1938. He played all but 14 minutes of the entire 1937 season.

JOhnny vauGhT (1934-36)Rare individuals come along who leave their Hall of Fame Marks on the gridiron as both a player and coach; former TCU great Johnny Vaught managed to pull it of, captaining the Horned Frogs’ 1932 conference champions and heading the Ole Miss football program for a quarter century. From 193032, he earned AllSouthwest Conference honors twice and consensus AllAmerica honors as a guard. Vaught, the first genuine AllAmerican footballer developed and displayed on the Fort Worth playing fields, served as a standout lineman for the Horned Frog teams during the 19303132 campaigns. He helped the team to a 2842 record and its secondever SWC championship under the leadership of Coach Francis Schmidt. Vaught began his coaching career at North Carolina from 193641. In 1946, he assisted at the Ole Miss for a year before moving up to head coach in 1947. In his 25season tenure with the Rebels, 18 of his teams went to bowl games, 10 rated in the nation’s Top 10, and four ranked among the Top Five. He led the school to six Southeastern Conference titles and compiled190 victories before retiring in 1970. An election to the National Football Foundation Hall of Fame followed soon after in 1979.

aBe MarTin (heaD COaCh 1953-66)Othol Martin “Abe” led the Frogs to a 74637 record over 14 season prior to serving as TCU athletics director for a decade from 1966 through 1975. A founding member of TCU’s Southwest Conference dominance, having played on the first TCU team to win the SWC championship in 1929, Martin began his TCU coaching career as the head coach of the freshman football team in 1945 before his promotion in 1953 following the Dutch Meyer era. Truly a player’s coach, Martin’s TCU ballclubs won three SWC crowns and played in five postseason bowl games, including victories in three Cotton Bowls. Also, some of the university’s greatest football players — Jim Swink, Don Floyd, Bob Lilly, Hugh Pitts, Norman Hamilton, Jack Spikes, and Tommy Joe Crutcher just to name a few — were produced during the Abe Martin era. Seven of them claimed AllAmerican honors, and more than a dozen allSouthwest Conference recognition. Martin was named SWC Coach of the Year in 1955 and 1958.

linDy Berry (1946-49)It was only natural for a guy named after that famed aerialist Charles Lindbergh to become one of the best passers in the nation. So, it was no surprise to some when Lindy Berry became just that in the late1940s. After gaining secondteam allSouthwest Conference honors as a soph, Berry saved the best for last, making the first allleague teams as a junior, and as a senior, when he capped his career with prominent AllAmerica mention in 1949. Berry led Southwest Conference football in both rushing and total ofense as a junior during the 1948 season and found himself as the busiest back in the nation with his 324 total ofensive plays. He ranked No. 4 in the NCAA in total ofense. Captain as a senior, Berry again paced the SWC in total ofense, ranking third in the nation. Although known mostly for his ofensive fireworks and feats, Berry was quite a defensive star, too. His interception of a Texas pass in the fourth quarter of the 1949 game near the TCU goal enabled the Horned Frogs to hang on for a 1413 upset.
i.B. hale (1936-38)The physicallyimpressive I.B. Hale was hailed as the “greatest lineman in America” by famed sportswriter Francis Wallace in 1938. As well as serving as team captain, the 62, 245pound Hale anchored the ofensive and defensive lines from his tackle spot for the Frogs’ 1938 national championship team. He gained AllAmerica honors in both 1937 and 1938, as well as allSWC recognition both his junior and senior seasons at TCU. Hale, whose brilliant college career spanned both the firstever Cotton Bowl (TCU vs. Marquette in 1937) and the 1939 Sugar Bowl, had been a teammate of Davey O’Brien at Dallas’ Woodrow Wilson High School. After his career at Frogland, Hale was a firstround pick in the NFL. Later a high school coach, a member of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and a toprated Southwest Conference football ofcial prior to his death in 1971, Hale was inducted posthumously into the Texas Sports Hall of Fame in 1985.
ki alDriCh (1936-38)“Aldrich is probably the greatest defensive center in history.” That’s the way LIFE magazine described TCU’s centerlinebacking demon, Charles “Ki” Aldrich, following the 1938 season when the Horned Frogs won the national championship.Aldrich, the 511, 198pounder from Temple, Texas, had been a consensus AllAmerican (after earning some first team AA honors the previous season) that year, plus he was named allSouthwest Conference for the third time. He was considered so important to TCU that his teammates named him MVP of the team, a surprising feat when one considers that it was Davey O’Brien who became the Southwest Conference’s first Heisman Trophy winner that same season. Many years later, former Horned Frog teammate and onetime childhood neighbor, Sam Baugh, said of the phenomenal Aldrich: “Ki was absolutely the toughest player I was ever around.” After being drafted in the firstround of the 1939 draft, Aldrich played professionally with the Chicago Cardinals and the Washington Redskins. He was elected to the National Football Hall of Fame in 1960.

all-TiMe TCu leGenDsJiM sWink (1954-56)
Few players in the history of college football have enjoyed as much success against one team as Jim Swink did against the rival Texas Longhorns during his threeyear stint of 19545556. During that threegame series, Swink did practically everything to the Longhorns except barbecue Bevo, rushing for an average of 168 yards per game while scoring 19 points per contest. He averaged 13.3 yards every time he carried the pigskin from scrimmage against the Horns. The “Rusk Rambler” is still regarded as one of the greatest running backs ever to play for TCU and in the SWC; his great games were numerous, with his gliding, sidestepping running style. As a junior in 1955, he was the nation’s leading scorer and secondleading ground gainer, totaling 125 points and rushing for 1,283 net yards. A twotime AllAmerican, Swink finished runnerup for the Heisman Trophy for his performance that season and was later named to the Cotton Bowl Hall of Fame in 2000. Half a century later, Jim Swink’s legend still surrounds TCU.
DOn FlOyD (1957-59)The fabulouslygifted Don Floyd was the stalwart of TCU’s stel lar forward walls of the 1958 and 1959 campaigns. By clear ing mas sive paths for such standouts as AllAmer i can Jack Spikes and allSWC Marvin Lasater on of ense, and while supply ing some pun ish ing stops on the oth er side, Floyd helped the Horned Frog gridders to a pair of con fer ence crowns and two con sec u tive bowl showings. Floyd, a product of Midlothian, Texas, cap tured allSouthwest Conference and AllAmer i ca honors at tackle in both his junior and senior cam paigns, including con sen sus AllAmer i ca cre den tials in 1959. Floyd’s im pres sive twoway per formance versus Texas in 1958, clear ing a major hurdle in TCU’s drive to the Cotton Bowl, earned him As so ci at ed Press National Line manoftheWeek honors. Floyd helped captain the ‘59 team.Although not overly large for his position (he played college ball at 63 and 220 pounds), Floyd played for eight NFL seasons (196067) with the Houston Oilers.
laDainian TOMlinsOn (1997-2000)As TCU football returned to national prominence at the close of the 20th century, standing center stage was a reluctant superstar in running back LaDainian Tomlinson. Tomlinson was an unheralded player coming out of Waco’s University High when he arrived on the Fort Worth campus in 1997. Things changed quickly during his junior campaign. Early in the season he rushed for 269 yards against Arkansas State, then followed that up two weeks later with a 300yard performance against San Jose State. L.T. later galloped into the national spotlight with an NCAA record 406 yards on 43 carries with a schoolrecord six touchdowns vs. UTEP. He grabbed the 1999 national rushing title with 1,850 yards, just ahead of Heisman Trophy winner Ron Dayne of Wisconsin. L.T. not only repeated as the NCAA rushing champion in 2000, but also became the first back in school history to gain 2,000 yards on the ground. His 2,158 yards as a senior was the fourthhighest singleseason total in NCAA history at the time, while his 5,263 career rushing yards ranked sixth. Tomlinson was a finalist for the 2000 Heisman Trophy, finishing fourth, and was the winner of the Doak Walker Award given to the nation’s top running back. Tomlinson carried that success with him to the NFL with the San Diego Chargers, as his 11,760 yards on the ground and 125 rushing touchdowns rank top the league since he was selected fifth overall in the 2001 NFL Draft.
BOB lilly (1958-60)It is somewhat debatable whether Bob Lilly’s collegiate football career or his professional one was more impressive since both were absolutely superb success spans ... tenures of Hall of Fame proportions. A member of the alltime SWC Dream Team, this great from Throckmorton was the main thrust behind the 19585960 Horned Frog teams which captured two Southwest Conference titles, plus appeared in the 1959 Cotton Bowl, as well as the Bluebonnet Bowl the following season. Lilly was a consensus AllAmerica choice in 1960. And in the spring of 1961 he became the Dallas Cowboys’ firstever draft choice. He would later go on to earn the nickname “Mr. Cowboy.” For 14 seasons, nine times as an AllPro, Lilly terrorized the National Football League as a dominating defensive tackle. He became Dallas’ first member of the “Cowboy Ring of Honor” and was inducted into the Professional Football Hall of Fame in 1980. Lilly was named to the NFL’s 75th Anniversary AllTime Team in 1994.

The irOn skilleT: TCu-sMu series
During the postWorld War II college football boom, the TCU and SMU student bodies created a traveling trophy called the Iron Skillet that was presented to the winner of the annual football game between the rivals. The tradition eventually died, and the skillet was lost. In 1993, the tradition was revived as SMU defeated TCU, 2115. The skillet is presented to the winning team after each game.

NEW oRlEaNs, la. — Bernie Moore, coach of the LSU foot ball team, was skep ti cal that TCU’s 3 to 2 vic to ry in the Sug ar Bowl game was a con clu sive test of the squads. “My con clu sion of the game was that the slippery field elim i nat ed at least 30 percent of the ofensive power of both teams,” he said. Dutch Meyer, coach of TCU, said he thought the contest before a capacity crowd of 35,000 was the “finest I’ve ever seen played in the rain.”
Yesterday’s “baseball score” game was a thriller which kept the spectators in their seats despite a slow rain which fell through out the second half ... LSU scored in the sec ond quarter after passes and runs brought the ball to the TCU twoinch line where it changed hands on downs. When (Sammy) Baugh at tempt ed to pass from behind the goal line he stepped over the end zone, automatically giving LSU a safety for a twopoint lead. The Texans came back in the same period to recover a Louisiana fumble on the Loui si ana 40 and pushed down to the LSU 16. Taldon Manton then kicked a field goal from the Tiger 26. From that point on the game was a battle of mighty defensives..
TCU played most of the game minus the services of three of her brightest stars — Left Halfback George Kline, AllAmerican Cen ter Darrell Lester and Halfback Rex Clark ... Clark played only one down and that was by the cour te sy of Coach Meyer who wanted the injured senior star to be able to say he played in the 1936 Sugar Bowl game ... Baugh made the longest run of the day — a 44yard gallop.

dallas — With a slingback attack that whipped over a field goal and two touch downs in the first 25 min utes of play and with a stur dy de fense that piled up the Marquette Golden Av a lanche, TCU cap tured a spectacular football game here this New Year’s Day. The score in the Cotton Bowl classic was 166.
So sudden, sharp and dazzling was the sweep of action of the battle that 15,000 spec ta tors, who braved threat en ing weather, forgot the gray gloom of the afternoon. Led by Sammy Baugh, who outpassed and outplayed “Buzz” Buivid to cinch his claim to the title of the greatest passer of the season, the Texans uncorked an ofense that flared into long gains both on the ground and in the air. Although it was Baugh who paced the attack and won the attention of the crowd, it was L.D. Meyer who did the real damage..
He scored all of TCU’s 16 points. He kicked a 33yard field goal for the first three points in the opening minutes. Before the first quarter had ended, Meyer col lab o rat ed with Sambo on a 55yard passandrun gain for the first Frog TD, and in the second quarter he took an 18yard heave from Vic Mont gom ery for the last score. Meyer even converted after the first touchdown.
A 60yard punt return by Art Guepe in the first quarter accounted for all of Marquette’s points.

NEW oRlEaNs, la. — It was with pow er, passes and kick ing that the Chris tians made the two touch downs and one field goal that enabled them to win, 157. Carnegie’s most consistent method of at tack was a bristling, quickstart ing and hardhitting ofense, but it was with a brilliant 38yard pass in the last seconds of the first half that the Skibos scored ... The second half started with the Pittsburghers lead ing, 76. The first time they got possession of the hoghide, the Frogs proved irresistible. Moving with giant strides, they went 80 yards and a touchdown on five plays.
TCU punted one time. That fact alone indicates ac cu rate ly how fearfully efective was the groundgain ing ma neuvers of the big whiteshirted representatives ... The one punt figured in making TCU’s first touchdown ... When the Skibos punted out, the TCU regulars took over and went 48 yards on 11 plays to take a 60 lead ...
Carnegie took the next kickof and went to town with big, fast and tough George Muha doing most of the dirty work ... Earl Clark in ter cept ed a pass and ran 25 yards to the Carnegie 35 yardline, but Durward Horner, a TCU end, had been ofsides so the play was called back ... It was on fourth down of this series of plays that Petey Moroz cut loose with his long fine pass for the Carnegie touchdown ...
The third quar ter (Davey) O’Brien passed to Horner down the middle ... The big end caught the ball between two Skibos, but evaded both of them and ran 24 yards across the goal line.

miami, Fla. — In the wildest, weird est football battle ever waged in this cor ner of the country, the Geor gia Bull dogs outscored the cou rageous TCU Horned Frogs 4026 ... Coach Wally Butts’ fast team, wellequipped on ground and in the air, almost chased the Frogs of the field for 35 minutes... The score mounted to 407 with only a few minutes played in the second half.
But the Frogs are not quitters ... Everything was against them. They couldn’t hold the enemy, they couldn’t move them selves and they were battered and weary from their emptyhanded eforts. But there was too much tradition behind those purple shirts. Sud den ly, almost as if a fresh wind had blown into the stadium, the tide turned. They knocked over three touch downs in rapid order. They turned back every Georgia thrust. The great come back in the last 25 minutes saved the Frogs from humiliation.
Bruce Alford was the Frog star ... He blocked a punt, he made two great catches for touch downs... After the rest period, Texas sup port ers hoped for a rally. But Georgia stepped out and banged 80 yards for still another touchdown that promised to make it a rout ... From that moment to the final gun it was the Bulldogs who held on and the Frogs who ripped.

dallas — With speed, spirit and spiraling passes, the Cow boys of Okla ho ma A&M complete ly outclassed the TCU Horned Frogs in the ninth annual Cot ton Bowl football game here this crys tal clear New Year’s af ter noon to win, 340. Except for the second quarter when they staved of repeated threats, the Frogs were never able to cope with the doublepronged attack ... The first touch down, scored in the fifth minute, climaxed a 59yard advance. The second whirled 61 yards, the third 62 yards, the fourth 40 yards and the fifth 66 yards .
The Frogs moved on the ground sev er al times when in their own territory, but after cross ing the 50yard line they were always thwarted by the bulling tactics of the burly Cowboy line ... Only once did the Frogs get inside the A&M 35yard line and that was on a pass in ter cep tion.
Bob Ruf was the only TCU back who was able to gain with any consistency, although Jesse Mason did some good work for a short time.
Coach Dutch Meyer tried all kinds of defenses against the Aggies, including a sevenman line which moved fullback Cox into the line. None of them worked for more than a few minutes at a time. The Aggies were too good in too many diferent ways.

mEmphis, tenn. — Trailing a hardtrying TCU team by nine points, the great Charley Conerly sud den ly soared to the dra mat ic heights of football throw ing expected of him. In just five min utes his rifle arm ac count ed for two touch downs as the Con fed er ates bested the Chris tians, 139, in the first Delta Bowl game.
In the closing minutes of the third period, Conerly launched a passing flurry that carried exactly 80 yards in eight plays ... The Frogs, still going strong, marched right back to the Rebel 37 where an intercepted pass sat Conerly up in business again. This time he threw only two passes...and they ate up just 63 yards to win the ball game.
In more ways than one, it was a tough game for the Frogs to lose... But they fumbled badly, losing the ball twice at crucial moments.
There were nine minutes yet to play and the Frogs gave the enemy fans a heart attack by holding the leather. Just six of them from their oneyard line, where Otis Kelvey was dropped on the kickof, the Chris tians powered right up field for 59 yards... But the last threat died when Knox’s pass was batted up and intercepted by the Ole Miss linebacker on the Reb 38.

dallas — TCU, distress ing ly flat except for one mag nifi cent minuteandhalf surge late in the third quarter, suc ceed ed only in making it a masterpiece of frustration. And so the fourtimesbeat en Wild cats from the Blue grass State thorough ly trounced the South west Con fer ence cham pi ons before a capacity throng of 75,349 ... 207. Ken tucky scored on two surges of 52 and 57 yards in the first and second quarters to post its 130 halftime lead.
Frogs, who had bogged down once on the four, wasted another 59yard push to the 24 early in the second quarter. Here, Clark in ter cept ed a Mal Fowler pass returned to the Kentucky 43 and the Wildcats tromped on from here for 57 yards and another touch down in 11 plays ... TCU made its 48yard move to the five after this and came back later in the quarter with its 51yard march to the one all for nothing ... (Gilbert) Bartosh drew his first chance of the game ... Here Bartosh called a direct snap — back Bobby Jack Floyd went 43 yards for touchdown on the longest run of the day.
Against the wind in the fourth Bartosh guided the Frogs 40 yards ... The TCU com mand sent in McKown to punt and he obliged with his neat kickout on the 8. But here, where holding ’em was imperative for TCU, Tom Fillion broke loose for 17 yards on a thirddownseventogoplay ... Ken tucky held the ball, put TCU in the hole with the kick and Bartosh was spilled for losses.

dallas — The Uni versi ty of Mis sis sip pi Rebels, cham pi ons of the Southeast ern Con fer ence, spot ted the TCU Horned Frogs, cham pi ons of the South west Con ference, 13 points in the 20th annual Cotton Bowl football game be fore 75,000 spectators here this warm and sun ny Mon day af ter noon and then swung back to win by the margin of a single point, 1413 ... (TCU) ac tu al ly lost the game for being in motion on a conversion efort.
They made the 14th point on the first try, but because a player was in motion, they had to try again from five yards farther back, and missed. They probably lost the game on the opening kickof when quarterback Chuck Curtis made the mistake of re ceiv ing and run ning with the ball. He was so badly injured when tackled that he never returned to action ... In spite of the handicap, the Horned Frogs scored a touch down in the first quarter and count ed in the second to lead 130 before the Rebels got their first touchdown to make it 137 at the half ... Mississippi won the game in the 11th minute of the fourth quarter ... Billy Lott scored on a fiveyard gallop around his right wing. The Rebs’ winning move traveled exactly the same distance as their first touchdown pa rade: 66 yards ... The Frogs went 44 and 75 yards for their touch downs.

dallas — Harold Pollard’s fourforfour con ver sions and the block ing of Syr a cuse’s third pointaf tertouchdown at tempt by (Chico) Mendoza pro duced a 2827 Cotton Bowl victory for TCU after 18 years of wait ing. The Frogs had dropped five suc ces sive bowl ap pear anc es and had not recorded a postseason triumph since 1939. It was a moving of en sive show all the way with the TCU passing providing a balance Syracuse couldn’t stop and the Saltine Warriors riding pow er ful ly on a running game spear head ed by the AllAmerica halfback, Jim Brown. He gained 132 yards and was voted the game’s out stand ing back. The Frogs’ AllAmerican tackle, Norman Hamilton, was the one defender who came nearest to stop ping Brown con sis tent ly and he was chosen as the game’s out stand ing lineman.
Syr a cuse scored in the last two min utes to give the game its touch of such hairbreadth close ness. For much of the afternoon it was TCU’s game and a couple of times seemed on the verge of turning decisive.
There was a unique twist to the firsthalf scoring in that each team intercepted passes and then drove 70 yards to score and each recovered fumbles and pushed out short yardage for the second touchdowns.

dallas — The gentle men operating the scoreboard had the easiest occupation in all land as the South west Con fer ence champions (TCU) and the future gener als (Air Force Academy) from Col o rado Springs played the sec ond 00 dead lock in the 23year history of the New Year’s Day clas sic ... It was the fourth tie game ever unreeled before a Cotton Bowl assemblage ... It was a dis ap point ing final for both clubs. The Horned Frogs took the field bearing an 82 record. The Falcons were unbeaten in 10 games and had their season immaculate but for a tie with Iowa. The Frogs fum bled the ball on eight occasions and on three of these wasted possession. One of these came early in the final period and surely tried the composure of Coach Abe Martin as he saw the Falcons reclaim a bobble just eight steps from the Air Force Academy’s end zone.
The field, covered by tarpaulin during the snow fall earlier in the week, was damp and contributed to the uneasy handling of the ball. The visiting Falcons also had difculty retaining the sphere and lost control on three of their five fumbles. Jack Spikes attempted both of TCU’s field goals, the first early in the opening period ... The Airmen ofered their severest threat midway of the second quarter ... It was here that the Frog line gave its best performance, restraining the Silver and Blue on the six, the spot from where George Pupich missed a field goal.

hoUstoN — The Frogs were drowned, 237, by a dead ly sprin kle of Clemson pass es in a sev enminute pe ri od of the final quarter ... The sud den Clemson scoring flood washed away a 73 lead TCU carried into the fatal final period. A narrow margin, but one that, at the time, appeared enough to send the luckless Tigers down to their fourth straight bowl defeat ... Neither team had threat ened se rious ly after Clemson’s second quar ter 22yard field goal by Lon Armstrong, and TCU’s lone touch down, a 19yard pass from Jack Redding to Harry Moreland with 5:45 left in the first half. Clemson had completed only one gaining pass all af ter noon, that a 5yard throw from Tiger quar ter back Harvey White.
White must have spotted the silver lining in the gath er ing dark ness for Tiger hopes. He took plenty of time behind the mam moth line and arched a long, high shot toward right end Gary Barnes, racing past TCU’s Larry Dawson at the Frog 35. Armstrong added the extra point ... Two plays after the kickof, Armstrong las soed a pass from TCU quarter back Donald George ... From there, Lowndes Shingler, over whelm ing ly voted out stand ing back, came back to guide the Tigers for the final slap on the cheek to a proud TCU team which had gained wide respect as the class of the Southwest Con fer ence, winning seven games to finish in a 3way tie for the title.

El paso, texas. — The Min ers sulked of the field with a 10point deficit at the in ter mis sion, but then pumped up Billy Stevens’ arm and Joe Cook’s foot and even tu ally de flat ed the Frogs, 1312. Stevens, who gained sec ond rank among the nation’s passers this season, proved his stardom to TCU by racking up 208 yards on 21 pass completions, the most ever against an Abe Martin team. The skinny sophomore had only seven strikes in the first half as the ballcon trol ling Frogs rammed into a 100 lead. Stevens made the 31st annual post season game a vastly diferent story in the second half.
Stevens shot a 34yard touchdown pass to 165pound flanker Chuck Hughes and a star tling comeback was begun ... The Miners drove 70 yards for a tying 21yard field goal by Cook... Texas Western, a raging de fen sive team by this time, hopped on a TCU fumble at the Frog 29.
Cook kicked an 18yard threepointer FG four plays deep in the final period to boot the Miners into a 1310 cushion. TCU’s final two points were a gift. With 43 seconds left in the game ... The Miner quarterback raced back in his end zone for a safety ... The Frogs got their last chance. They could get only eight yards before the clock ran out.
Although Stevens won the great air race in the end, TCU’s senior quar ter back, Kent Nix got a head start.
David Smith hauling in Nix’s 11yard pass for the score ... The Frogs had another scoring op por tu ni ty in the first period ... (Bruce) Alford missed a kick from the 28.

hoUstoN — What had promise of being the ex cit ing fin ish to an “unbelievable” season turned clos er to a nightmare ... at least un til TCU’s dramatic, fourthquarter come back restored some de gree of re spect to the out come in the 25th edition of the Blue b on net Bowl. The final score was West Virginia 31, TCU 14. But for the Horned Frogs there were lots of dips and swerves along the way. For starters, a 21point West Virginia blitz during a 14minute span of the first half had some what of a sobering efect on the Purples. So did the loss of AllAmerican running back Kenneth Davis, to a knee injury, in the early moments of the postseason classic.
After being shoved up and down the field by the Mountaineers’ ofense (355 yards), while countering with little punch themselves (148 yards) during the first 30 minutes, the Horned Frogs did make a contest of it after the in ter mis sion, scoring the only touchdown of the second half while mount ing a couple of other drives which nearly resulted in points. Much of TCU’s second half turnaround was due to the passing arm of senior Anthony Gulley who finished with 150 yards passing in clud ing TD tosses to Dan Sharp and Keith Burnett. Senior re ceiv er James Maness caught five passes for 90 yards but was no match sta tis tical ly for the sixcatch, 152yard performance of WVU light ning bug.

shREVEpoRt, la. — A de cade slipped by before TCU’s Horned Frogs resur faced from obliv i on into the postseason... The Frogs most ly slipped however, as they trudged and muddied them selves on the raindrenched field of In de pen dence Stadium... Some 27,242 fans – a ma jor i ty of them TCU sup port ers – withstood the temptation to stay home ... The view be came pains tak ing ly clear no mat ter the van tage point ... Vir gin ia proved too good for these up start Frogs and captured its first bowl tri umph in five attempts since 1987 with the 2010 victory ... “We can’t use the field as an excuse in any way,” TCU coach Pat Sullivan said. “I couldn’t be more proud of our foot ball team, but we weren’t quite good enough in a couple of ways.”
The 15thranked Cav a liers (93) dom i nat ed at the point of attack, where so many games will be won or lost ... The Frogs and their South west Con fer enceleading ofense, which av er aged 411.6 yards per game dur ing the regular season, sus tained nothing on this chilly, wet night. Vir gin ia, which en tered the con test with the na tion’s No. 1ranked defensive unit against the run, surrendered only 191 yards and 11 first downs to the Frogs.
The running of junior tailback Andre Davis, who rushed for 97 yards on 24 carries, failed to provide enough ofense on a night when (quarterback Max) Knake struggled. “The truth of it is I played terrible,” said Knake. “If I could have played better, there may have been a diferent outcome.”

El paso, texas — With only six wins, many thought TCU was not worthy of a bowl appearance. But, the Horned Frogs proved their critics wrong in a big way.
Basil Mitchell rushed for 185 yards and two touchdowns on only 19 carries as TCU earned its first bowl victory in 41 years with a 2819 win over USC in the 65th Sun Bowl.
Quarterback Patrick Batteaux added 94 yards and two scores for TCU, which recorded its first postseason win since defeating Syracuse in the 1957 Cotton Bowl.
TCU (75) dominated the line of scrimmage, rushing for 314 yards while holding USC to a Sun Bowl record minus23, breaking by two yards the mark set by Florida State in 1951. The Trojans (85) also posted the lowest rushing total in school history, eclipsing the previous record of minus11 yards against Iowa in 1976.
Mitchell fell just short of Charles Alexander’s Sun Bowl rushing record of 197 yards. He opened the scoring with a threeyard run 7:07 into the first quarter.
True freshman Carson Palmer completed 17of28 passes for a seasonbest 280 yards to rally USC.
The Horned Frogs put away the game by chewing more than six minutes of the clock before pinning USC inside its 15 with less than two minutes remaining.

moBilE, ala. — LaDainian Tomlinson ran for 124 yards and two touchdowns to lead TCU to a 2814 victory over No. 20 East Carolina in the inaugural Mobile Alabama Bowl.
It was the second consecutive bowl upset for TCU (84). East Carolina (93) entered the game as sixpoint favorites. That didn’t bother the Horned Frogs, who completely shut down the Pirates’ running game, holding them to minus16 yards.
East Carolina went into the game focusing on stopping Tomlinson, whose 1,850 yards edged Heisman Trophy winner Ron Dayne for the NCAA Division I rushing title.
TCU, which alternated between quarterbacks Casey Printers and Patrick Batteaux, made it impossible for the Pirates to adjust.
Early in the first quarter, Printers gained seven yards on an option run to move TCU to the 2. Batteaux, a senior who runs the option better than Printers, came in on the next play and pitched the ball to Tomlinson, who ran in for the touchdown. That tied the game at 7 and TCU slowly pulled away from there.
East Carolina, which couldn’t run the ball at all against TCU, had to go to the air in the second half.
It initially worked, but early in the fourth quarter, Russell Gary intercepted Garrard’s pass and returned it 32 yards for a touchdown. That gave TCU a 2814 lead with 14:04 to play.

moBilE, ala. — Jef Kelly’s 28yard touchdown pass to freshman Kenny Johnson with eight seconds left lifted Southern Miss to a 2821 victory over No. 13 TCU in the Mobile Alabama Bowl.
In the first major bowl game of the season, TCU tailback LaDainian Tomlinson ran for 118 yards, his lowest total of the season. The Heisman Trophy finalist carried 28 times and scored two TDs in the third quarter.
Southern Miss (84) got a second chance after a fourth missed field goal, and trusted their senior quarterback instead of the shaky kicking game.
With 33 seconds left, they took over at the TCU 43yard line after Mobile native Etric Pruitt got a hand on John Braziel’s punt. Kelly threw two incompletions, then scrambled 14 yards for a first down. On the next play, he lofted a perfect strike over the middle just above safety LaVar Veale’s outstretched arm, victimizing the nation’s top defense.
The Horned Frogs (102) endured a December coaching change and uncertainty over who would lead them into the game. In the end, former defensive coordinator Gary Patterson replaced Dennis Franchione on the sidelines. Franchione left for Alabama Dec. 1 and was initially expected to coach the bowl game. TCU ofcials decided late last week to allow the Patterson era to begin a season early.

hoUstoN — Byron Jones intercepted three passes in his first start and Joe Weber scored two touchdowns, helping Texas A&M end a fourgame bowl losing streak with a 289 victory over TCU (66) in the galleryfurniture .com Bowl.
The Aggies (84) beat their former Southwest Conference rivals for the 24th straight time.
Weber, voted ofensive player of the game, broke a 77 secondquarter tie with a 2yard touchdown run and added a 14yard run that put the Aggies in control with 1:14 left in the third quarter.
TCU’s Casey Printers was intercepted four times.
Jones earned MVP honors and also was the defensive player of the game with three tackles. Starting in place of injured Sean Weston, Jones had only two brokenup passes on his defensive chart in 11 games before he returned his first interception 62 yards in the first quarter to the Frog 35.
The Aggies couldn’t score on that chance but Jones had a 15yard interception to the TCU 1yard line in the second quarter, setting up Mark Farris’ quarterback keeper for the score.
Charlie Owens scooped up a fumble by A&M running back Derek Farmer and returned it 89 yards for a TCU touchdown with four minutes left in the half for a 77 tie. It was the second longest fumble return in school history.

mEmphis, tenn. — TCU figured out how to stop Colorado State standout Cecil Sapp after just two runs in the Liberty Bowl.
Sapp reeled of big gains of 59 and 25 yards on the Rams’ first two possessions, but had 22 yards the rest of the game, and TCU tailback Ricky Madison stole the show with 111 yards rushing and a touchdown as the Horned Frogs beat No. 23 Colorado State 173 Tuesday.
It was the Horned Frogs’ 500th victory in school history.
Madison ran for 107 of his yards in the rainy second half as TCU’s ofense came alive after a sloppy opening by both teams.
In the first half, the teams combined for three lost fumbles, two interceptions, a missed field goal and an unsuccessful faked field goal. Their sloppy play made for the lowest scoring first half of a Liberty Bowl since Penn State led Tulane 60 in 1979.
TCU (102) finally put together a sevenplay, 62yard scoring drive led by Lonta Hobbs in the closing minutes of the second quarter. The freshman ran for 39 yards in the drive, capped when Sean Stilley threw a 15yard touchdown pass to LaTarence Dunbar with 1:21 remaining to put TCU up 70 at the break.
The Rams were held to 89 yards rushing compared with 197 for TCU for their lowest total of the season. TCU also outgained Colorado State 338149.

FoRt WoRth — Ryan Dinwiddie, who ended his career as the most efcient passer in college football, threw for 325 yards and three touchdowns to lead the No. 18 Broncos (131) to a 3431 win Tuesday night over No. 19 TCU in the inaugural Fort Worth Bowl.
Their bowl win on TCU’s campus wasn’t secured until sophomore Mike Wynn was well short on a 51yard field goal attempt, the first kick in his college career, with 7 seconds left.
TCU (112) had its schoolrecord 13game home winning streak snapped. The Frogs had been in contention for a Bowl Championship Series spot until their only regularseason loss Nov. 20 and then turned down an invitation to last week’s GMAC Bowl because it conflicted with exams.
Dinwiddie hit 19 of 35 passes with two interceptions, but his last touchdown was an 18yarder to Derek Schouman for the winning score with 12:43 left.
“I thought we beat them on both sides of the football. Three big plays beat us,” TCU coach Gary Patterson said. “There’s a reason they’ve won a lot of games.”

hoUstoN — Peter LoCoco hit a 44yard field goal with 5:25 left in the game to put TCU on top 2724 and the Frogs’ defense held Iowa State in check on the ensuing drive for the victory at Reliant Stadium.
The TCU defense forced four Iowa State turnovers and Robert Merrill reached the century mark in rushing yards for the 10th time in his career as he ran for 109 yards on 11 carries with a touchdown to help lead the Frogs to the win.
TCU scored on its opening two possessions for a 140 lead just 6:36 into the contest. The two touchdowns came in a 1:55 span.
The Horned Frogs took the opening kickof and drove 80 yards in 12 plays, capped by a 20yard Merrill touchdown run.
On the second play of Iowa State’s ensuing possession, Jeremy Modkins forced a fumble that was recovered by Drew Coleman, giving the Frogs possession at the Cyclone 21. Three plays later, an Aaron Brown 7yard scoring run extended TCU’s lead to 140.
Iowa State scored 17 points in a 4:30 stretch of the second quarter to take a 1714 lead with 10:30 left in the first half.
The Cyclones’ third turnover of the first half, a fumble recovery by David Roach, led to the Frogs going back on top. The first snap of TCU’s ensuing series saw Jef Ballard connect on an 84yard touchdown pass to Michael DePriest to give the Frogs a 2117 lead with 4:05 left in the half.

saN diEGo — Penned in by a bunch of tough Horned Frogs, Garrett Wolfe had nowhere to run.
The national rushing leader was held to 28 yards, a whopping 130 below his average, and No. 25 TCU won a Poinsettia Bowl mismatch against Northern Illinois 377.
While Wolfe was repeatedly stufed by one of the nation’s best defenses, led by end Tommy Blake, Horned Frogs quarterback Jef Ballard ran for three touchdowns and threw for another.
Ballard looked like more of a running back as he scored on runs of 10, 1 and 6 yards. He threw a 6yard TD pass to tight end Brent Hecht and finished with 258 passing yards.
TCU’s Lonta Hobbs rushed for 114 yards and one TD.
Wolfe came in leading the nation with an average of 158.3 yards rushing and 178.9 allpurpose yards.
The Horned Frogs, though, were fourth nationally in run defense after allowing only 67.6 yards per game. TCU kept alive its string of not allowing a 100yard rusher, one of only four teams to do so this year.
Wolfe, who carried 20 times, came dangerously close to his careerlow of 24 yards set in his first game, the 2004 season opener. The Huskies had only five first downs and 60 yards of total ofense, compared to 23 first downs and 456 yards for TCU.

hoUstoN — Justin Watts had scored exactly one touchdown in his career at TCU before the Texas Bowl.
TD No. 2 marked the goahead touchdown early in the fourth quarter to help TCU to a 2013 win over Houston.
The junior wove through the defense and danced into the end zone for an 8yard touchdown run that made it 1710 and gave TCU (85) its first lead of the game against its old Southwest Conference rival.
He and Ryan Christian split carries against Houston (85) after starter Joseph Turner injured his knee in the first quarter and didn’t return.
Quarterback Andy Dalton also ran for a touchdown for TCU. Dalton was 21of30 for 249 yards with one interception. Watts and Christian combined for 88 yards rushing on 12 carries.
A 15yard leaping reception by Jimmy Young on third down kept the drive that ended in Watts’ touchdown going. Young outjumped Carson Blackmon to grab the ball and managed to keep his left leg in bounds as he landed.It was initially ruled an incomplete pass, but the call was overturned after a review by ofcials.
The Cougars had a chance to tie it with less than 30 seconds to play but Case Keenum’s pass sailed just beyond the fingertips of Jeron Harvey in the end zone. He had two more shots at the end zone, but the ball fell short on the first one and Chase Ortiz hit him as he threw the second one to end the game.

TCu’s BOWl hisTOry
saN diEGo — Joseph Turner dove into the end zone for the winning score, and LaDainian Tomlinson went nuts on the sideline.
It was a good night to be a Frog, current and past.
Turner’s 17yard run midway through the fourth quarter gave the No. 11 Horned Frogs their first lead of the night, during a 1716 victory over No. 9 and previously undefeated Boise State in the Poinsettia Bowl.
BSU was trying to finish 130 for the second time in three seasons. The Broncos took a 100 lead on Ian Johnson’s 20yard touchdown run midway through the first quarter, but their highscoring ofense bogged down against TCU’s fast, aggressive defense.
TCU piled up yards if not points until finally wearing down the Broncos’ defense in the fourth quarter. The Horned Frogs moved 80 yards in 10 plays on the winning drive, with Turner finishing it of by shedding a tackle inside the 5yard line and diving into the end zone for a 1713 lead.
After Turner’s TD, Boise State got to the TCU 14 before having to settle for Kyle Brotzman’s 33yard field goal to pull to 1716.
The Broncos got the ball back with 6 seconds left on their 33 and tried to lateral the ball after a catch, but Jeremy Childs’ desperation flip was grabbed by TCU’s Matt Panfil.
TCU outgained Boise State 472 yards to 250.

GreaT MOMenTs in TCu hisTOryTCu QB shaTTers reCOrD BOOkIt was a recordsetting day for TCU when the Horned Frogs stood toetotoe with the 1990 Houston Cougars, who had one of the most prolific ofenses ever in college football.
Houston eventually rolled past TCU, 5635, but not before countless records – school, conference and NCAA – were broken.
Frogs’ quarterback Matt Vogler helped account for nine of those shattered marks.
His 690 yards passing set new school, conference and NCAA records. He also helped the Frogs set the most yards ofense by a losing team (736). Along with his Cougar counterpart, David Klingler, Vogler helped set records for combined total ofense (1,563) and most yards passing by opposing teams (1,253) – both SWC and NCAA marks.
Vogler still holds three TCU records for passing – all were set in that 1990 game at The Astrodome.
The previous NCAA mark for passing yards in a game was held by Utah’s Scott Mitchell when he threw for 631 yards against Air Force in 1988. Houston’s Andre Ware held the conference record with 517yard performance against SMU in 1989.
Vogler connected with eight diferent receivers, but Steven Shipley carried most of the load. He finished with 11 receptions and 154 yards – both career bests.
Vogler had two big strikes against Houston. He had an 80yard TD pass in the first quarter and an 88yard touchdown toss in the second quarter.
Vogler, who also holds the secondmost passing yards in a game with 419, is 282 yards in front of No. 3 on the alltime list, Steve Stamp.
Oliver seTs reCeivinG reCOrDTwo big air strikes accounted for 151 of Jimmy Oliver’s 206 yards in TCU’s Southwest Conference showdown with Texas Tech in 1994, but it was his other five catches for a modest 55 yards that catapulted him into the Horned Frog record book.
Late in the fourth quarter, Oliver – who already had touchdown receptions of 89 and 62 yards – caught a twoyard pass from quarterback Max Knake to move ahead of Vernon Wells for the school’s record for most receiving yards in a game.
Oliver’s recordsetting day, which was 12th best in the SWC at the time, helped lead TCU past Texas Tech, 2417.
The 18yearold record came under attack in the second quarter when Knake hit Oliver in stride at the Frogs’ 30yard line. The sprinter from Adamson High School in Dallas did the rest. He raced 89 yards to complete the oneplay, 11second drive.
That score gave TCU an early 100 advantage.
Oliver, who was well known for his blazing speed, was a Southwest Conference indoor 55meter and 55meter hurdles champion. There was a rumor that he clocked a 4.15 in the 40yard dash on one occasion.
His speed showed up again in the third quarter, when Oliver and Knake teamed up for a 62yard strike down the middle of the Red Raider defense.
Oliver’s second touchdown put TCU in front of Texas Tech, 1614, but the Frogs had to rally again in the fourth quarter to defeat the Red Raiders in front of 43,219.
Before Wells set the record of 204 yards in 1976 versus Tennessee, TCU’s receiving record was 37 years old. Earl Clark held the mark that Wells broke, 177 yards on 10 catches, since 1939. He set the record against Temple.
lT runs lOOse aGainsT MinersLaDainian Tomlinson broke the NCAA Division IA rushing record, gaining 406 yards and scoring six touchdowns in TCU’s 5224 victory over TexasEl Paso.
Tomlinson carried 43 times and topped the record held by Tony Sands of Kansas, who rushed for 396 yards on 58 carries against Missouri on Nov. 23, 1991.
“All the credit goes to the ofensive line. They’ve done a great job of creating holes all season,” Tomlinson said. “I need to buy them a couple of steaks.”
While Tomlinson is the first majorcollege rusher to gain 400 yards in a game, he is the sixth overall in the NCAA. The record is 441 yards by Dante Brown of Division III Marietta College in 1996.
Touchdown runs of 70 and 63 yards on consecutive carrries in the fourth quarter got Tomlinson close to the record. So even with a 4525 lead, TCU sent him back out for its final drive of the game, and he broke the 400yard barrier with a sevenyard carry.
“If he’s so close to something like that, you’ve got to let him finish it of,” said TCU coach Dennis Franchione. “After three firsthalf turnovers, I was a little punchy about what to call in the second half. The smart thing to do was to give the ball to No. 5.”

As Chancellor of Texas Christian University since 2003, Dr. Victor J. Boschini, Jr., has had the privilege of leading the university through an extraordinary period. TCU has made unprecedented investments in scholarships, facilities and technology, academic programs, and new faculty and staff, all for one purpose: providing a world-class, values-centered university experience for TCU’s almost 9,000 students.
Reflecting his background in higher education administration and the familiarity with undergraduates that comes from teaching a class in the College of Education each year, Chancellor Boschini knows it’s a 24/7 world for this generation of Horned Frogs. And he’s determined that TCU maximizes all the opportunities for learning.
That’s why the new Campus Commons is open day and night. With four residence halls, the Brown-Lupton University Union, and soon-to be-completed Scharbauer Hall, an academic facility, the Commons is becoming the center of a vibrant social, cultural and intellectual life for students, faculty and staff. The Campus Commons concept grew from Vision in Action, a major strategic planning effort Dr. Boschini launched soon after becoming TCU’s 10th chancellor. Among the results of Vision in Action are 10 new living/learning facilities opened in recent years; significant increases in scholarships and financial aid funds; the addition of a substantial number of faculty and instructional positions, resulting in a low 15:1 student/faculty ratio; several endowed chairs and professorships; and the creation of the John V. Roach Honors College. Underwriting these achievements is The Campaign for TCU, which has raised more than $203 million, 81 percent of its $250 million goal.
Chancellor Boschini maintains a high profile in the world of higher education. Last year, as chair of the Board of Directors of the National Association of Independent Colleges & Universities (NAICU), he advocated for 1,000 independent colleges and universities across the nation. As past chair, he continues his work for NAICU, which is often described as “the voice of private higher education.” Chancellor Boschini is also past chair of the Mountain West Conference’s Executive Board and is a member of the Independent Colleges and Universities of Texas (ICUT).
In spite of these responsibilities, the Chancellor teaches an honors course, A New Paradigm for Leadership, in the College of Education. It’s a natural fit since he not only holds the rank of professor of education, but also brings an extensive background in higher education administration to the classroom.
Since TCU is Fort Worth’s “home team,” the Chancellor takes an active role in as many community ventures as possible. He serves on the board of directors of the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra and the Van Cliburn Foundation.
Chancellor Boschini and his wife Megan have given TCU two Horned Frogs: Elizabeth, a 2009 graduate, and Mary, a sophomore. Future Frogs Edward and Margaret attend All Saints Episcopal School.

Dr. Danny Morrison is in his fifth year as TCU’s athletics director.
Morrison, hired on May 19, 2005 by TCU Chancellor Dr. Victor Boschini, previously served four years as commissioner of the Southern Conference.
During his first four years at TCU, Morrison has helped usher in the Horned Frogs’ Mountain West Conference era. In the 2008-09 athletics season, TCU had 16 of its 20 sports represented in postseason play, including all seven spring sports. A total of 12 sports were nationally ranked. Four conference titles were won with three coaches receiving MWC Coach of the Year honors.
With the football team posting a No. 7 ranking in season-ending polls and the baseball team coming within a game of the College World Series, TCU was one of only three schools nationally to have a top-10 football team and a Super Regional baseball team in 2008-09.
Momentum is also evident in the classroom. In the spring 2009 semester, TCU student-athletes posted a cumulative 2.96 grade-point average. It was the highest mark since reporting began in Fall 1998. Thirteen athletic programs recorded a team semester GPA of 3.0 of higher. A total of 81 student-athletes graduated during the 2008-09 academic campaign.
Additionally, over 50 percent of student-athletes recorded a grade-point average of 3.0 or higher during the spring semester with 22 student-athletes posting a perfect 4.0.
Teamwork within the athletics department is a staple of what makes TCU special to Morrison. In spring 2009, it enabled the Horned Frogs to be recognized as successful hosts of the NCAA Rifle Championships, an NCAA Baseball Regional and the Mountain West Conference Baseball Championship. TCU has also been awarded the 2010 NCAA Rifle Championships.
Interest in TCU athletics continues, resulting in the top-four years for departmental revenue. Football season-ticket sales have set records in two of the last three seasons, while the baseball program established a new mark for average attendance per home date in 2009. In the fall, the volleyball team set a match attendance record and soccer posted three of its top-five single-game attendance marks.
Thanks to the support of the TCU community, Frog Club donations again surpassed the $4 million mark. When combined with giving to TCU in both capital and endowment projects, Frog supporters have contributed over $40 million the last three years with that number reaching nearly $47 million over four years.
“The financial results are a direct result of the efforts of our countless volunteers and supporters as well as the involvement of our development officers, coaches and staff,” Morrison said. “Everyone’s contribution is critical to the continued improvement of the program.”
Helping lead the way in the endowment area was Ron Parker and his wife Paula. In 2006, they made a commitment to fully endow an athletic scholarship for the tight end position on the Frog football team. It was the first fully endowed position scholarship for any sport at TCU. Bill Starkey and his wife, Rita, have followed with an endowed scholarship for a defensive back.
The momentum from the gifts by the Parkers and Starkeys extend into continued facility improvements at TCU.
Work will begin soon on the Jane Justin Soccer Fieldhouse, funded by the Jane and John Justin Foundation, and is scheduled for completion in time for the 2010 season. Also on the immediate horizon is the renovation of the pro shop at the Bayard H. Friedman Tennis Center, made possible through a gift from the Friedman family and Mary Potishman Lard Trust. The $13 million Dutch Meyer Athletic Complex and Abe Martin Academic Enhancement Center, located in the south end zone of Amon G. Carter Stadium, opened in Fall 2008. Primary donors included Dick Lowe, Hunter Enis, Four Sevens Oil Company, Tex Moncrief, Duer Wagner III, Luther King, John Roach and the Amon G. Carter Foundation. The facility features six suites, 255 club seats, meeting and hospitality rooms, and an increased academic area for TCU student-athletes. This past spring, an estate gift from Paul Sorrels enabled four patios to be constructed for the enjoyment of baseball fans at Lupton Stadium.
Upgrading facilities remain a focus for the future. Clarence Scharbauer is chairman of the Amon G. Carter Stadium committee examining various alternatives and options for the historical stadium. The Amon G. Carter Foundation has provided a lead commitment of $15 million for the renovations. In addition, Malcolm Louden is leading an effort for an Olympic Building and golf practice facility to be located adjacent to Lupton Stadium and the Lowdon Track and Field Complex. Architectural planning is underway for both the stadium and Olympic complex projects.
Morrison attended Wofford, where he lettered four years in basketball and graduated summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa in 1975 with a Bachelor of Arts in mathematics. He obtained a Master of Education degree in administration and supervision from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1981, and a doctorate in educational leadership from the University of South Carolina in 2000.
Morrison and his wife, Peggy, have two children: Trey, a graduate of the University of South Carolina, and Meg, who received her degree from Wofford.

JUST TCU, THANK YOU!AP, NCAA, ABC, CBS, NBC, AFCA. And, TCU Athletics.
Though the TCU Department of Intercollegiate Athletics is a proud and integral part of Texas Christian University, it desires to be recognized simply as TCU (acronym only) Athletics. Ditto regarding references to its sports teams: TCU football, TCU baseball, TCU golf, etc.
In all sports-related media references, we respectfully urge that the university’s teams be identified with an appropriate appellation – TCU. In subsequent references of the same presentation the team may be referred to by nickname - Horned Frogs. A shorter version of the nickname, Frogs, is acceptable in later usage.

ABOUT THE MOUNTAIN WEST CONFERENCEFrom its inception in 1999, the Mountain West Conference has been committed to excellence in intercollegiate athletics while promoting the academic missions of its member institutions. Fresh off celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2008-09, the MWC continues to cultivate opportunities for student-athletes to compete at the highest level, while fostering academic achievement and sportsmanship. Over the history of its first decade, the MWC has been assertive in its involvement with the NCAA governance structure and has taken a leadership role in the overall administration of intercollegiate athletics.
Progressive in its approach, the MWC has marked several achievements over its first decade of existence, most notably becoming the first to establish a sports network dedicated solely to an intercollegiate athletic conference. The MWC was the first to experiment with the coaches challenge in the college football instant replay system. It was also the first non-automatic-qualifying BCS conference to participate in and win two BCS bowl games, as well as have three teams ranked all eight weeks of the BCS Standings. Additionally, the MWC was the first conference to have a member institution with No. 1 overall picks in both the NFL and NBA drafts in the same year (Utah’s Alex Smith and Andrew Bogut, respectively). Since it was founded in 1999, the MWC is the only conference to have the No. 1 selection in each of the NFL, NBA and MLB drafts. The MWC also ranks second in No. 1 draft picks over the last five years with three overall.
The Mountain West Conference is noted for its geographic diversity. Some of the most beautiful terrain and landscapes in the nation can be found within Mountain West Conference boundaries, including the majestic Rocky Mountain range, which borders four MWC schools (Utah, BYU, Air Force and Colorado State). The high plains of Wyoming (elevation 7,220 feet – the highest Division I campus in the nation) contrast with the desert city of Las Vegas (the fastest growing metropolitan area in the West) and the Pacific Ocean locale of San Diego State. The southwestern flavor of New Mexico complements the western heritage and culture of Fort Worth, Texas, home of the MWC’s newest member, TCU.
HISTORY The Mountain West Conference was conceived on May 26, 1998, when the presidents of eight institutions — Air Force, BYU, Colorado State, New Mexico, San Diego State, UNLV, Utah and Wyoming — decided to form a new NCAA Division I-A intercollegiate athletic conference.
The split from the former 16-team conference re-established continuity and stability among the membership within the new league and signaled the continuation of its tradition-rich, long-standing athletic rivalries. Five of the MWC’s eight original members have been conference rivals since the 1960s (BYU, Utah, New Mexico, Wyoming, Colorado State), while San Diego State (1978) and Air Force (1980) were longtime members as well. UNLV and TCU entered the fold in 1996 and the Rebels continued as one of the original eight institutions that formed the MWC in 1999. TCU rejoined the group with its first year of competition in the Mountain West in 2005-06, completing the Conference membership as it stands today.
When the MWC officially began operations on July 1, 1999, the new league had in place a seven-year contract with ESPN, giving the broadcaster exclusive national television rights to MWC football and men’s basketball, and three-year agreements to send the league’s football champion to the Liberty Bowl and a second team to the Las Vegas Bowl. Commissioner Craig Thompson also arranged a third bowl tie-in each of the first three years (1999 Motor City, 2000 Silicon Valley, 2001 New Orleans) before securing a four-year deal with the Emerald Bowl in San Francisco in 2002. An innovator in the postseason bowl structure, the MWC engineered many “firsts,” as league teams have participated in five inaugural bowl games (2000 Silicon Valley, 2001 New Orleans, 2002 San Francisco (Emerald), 2005 Poinsettia, 2006 New Mexico), as well as placing the first non-automatic-qualifying BCS team into a BCS bowl game with Utah’s appearance in the 2005 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl.

PROSPECTSWHO IS A PROSPECTIVE STuDEnT-ATHlETE (PROSPECT)?You are a prospect if you have started classes for the ninth grade. Before the ninth grade, you may become a prospect if a university provides you (or your family or friends) any financial aid or other benefit that is not usually provided to prospective student-athletes.
HOW DO I knOW IF I’m BEIng RECRuITED?There are several ways to be recruited: (1) A coach may provide you with an official paid visit to view the campus, (2) a coach may arrange an in-person, off-campus meeting with you (or your family), or (3) a coach or staff member may call you (or your family) on more than one occasion for the purpose of recruitment. Only coaches and athletic department staff can be involved in the recruiting process. Athletic representatives are prohibited from contacting a prospective student-athlete or members of his/her family by telephone, letter or in person for the purpose of encouraging participation in athletics at TCU. Please contact the coaching staff if you know of a prospect that may have the interest and ability to participate in intercollegiate athletics at TCU. The coach can then take appropriate action.
WHAT IS A CONTACT?A contact is any face-to-face encounter between a prospect or the prospect’s parent(s) or legal guardian and an institutional staff member or athletic representative during which any dialogue occurs in excess of an exchange of greeting. NOTE: At the Division I level, athletic representatives (boosters) may not contact you for the purpose of recruiting.
WHAT CAn TCu OFFER yOu TO ATTEnD?You (or your family) may not receive any benefit, inducement, or arrangements (e.g. cash, clothing, cars, gifts, loans, etc…) to encourage you to sign a National Letter of Intent. TCU may offer you a one-year scholarship that covers room and board, tuition and fees, and required course-related books, or any part of these. TCU can recommend that this aid is renewed each year, as is the general practice at the institution, but this renewal is not guaranteed.
BOOSTERSWHO IS A “BOOSTER”?A “booster” is known in NCAA terms as a “representative of the institution’s athletics interests.” You become a booster if:
—you have ever been a member of any organization promoting TCU Athletics, —you have ever made any type of donation to the Frog Club, TCU Athletics or any other TCU booster organization, —you have ever assisted in evaluating or recruiting prospective student-athletes, —you have ever assisted in providing benefits to enrolled student-athletes or their families, —you have promoted TCU Athletics in any other manner.
NCAA Bylaw 13.02.12.1 mandates that when you become a booster, you retain that identity for the rest of your life. As a representative of TCU’s athletics interests, you are bound by NCAA rules. TCU is responsible for your actions.
INSTITUTIONAL CONTROL“Institutional control” of Athletics is a fundamental requirement of NCAA rules. The NCAA constitution provides that each institution shall be responsible for ensuring that student-athletes, members of the institution’s staff and other individuals or groups that represent the institution’s athletics interests comply with all applicable NCAA regulations.
Because of the complexity of NCAA rules, this document does not include all applicable situations and should not be relied upon exclusively.
