Well this is stunning and terrible news.
Ty Barrett, the 4-star lineman commit from Dallas Skyline, one of the most vocal and positive commits in this 2014 class, has decommitted upon returning from a visit to Arizona State.
I have opened my recruiting back up!! #TCU is indeed still in it but I have decommitted!

Barrett was one of the biggest recruiters for TCU, but that all carries less weight now.
I am legitimately shocked by this, as are most people that follow TCU recruiting. Barrett was all in, 100% TCU, and said publicly multiple times that he was simply taking his visit to Arizona State to enjoy the recruiting process.
Barrett leaves TCU with three offensive line commits in this class, Austin Schlottman, Frank Kee and Ryan Griswold.
