Will Kansas Give TCU a Homecoming Headache?

Happy Homecoming! The Frogs welcome Kansas in a game that will be interesting for a number of reasons: The Frogs want to keep this march up the polls going by getting to 7-0. Kansas always seems to give the Frogs headaches. The weather could play a factor late in the game. A chess match will

Coming Home to the Undefeated Frogs

Happy Homecoming Week. Man, do we have the events on campus this week!!!! Lettermen’s Hall of Fame Dinner, National Alumni Board Meetings, Homecoming Parade, Pep Rally and I’m sure there’s more.

Tribute to a Legend: Tom Petty

It’s been a tough news week for sure. Having spent a lot of time in Las Vegas during TCU’s stay in the Mountain West Conference (some years we would travel there five times), I knew exactly where Sunday night’s mass shooting had taken place. My heart goes out to the families of all those killed

A Time to Heal
