How TCU's 2015 signing-day class fared on the field | Dallas Morning News
KaVontae Turpin is the freshman everyone knows, but he wasn't the only young contributor for the Frogs last season.

A converted safety, Wilson was put to more use at linebacker after Sammy Douglas was lost for the year in the season opener, joining sophomore Travin Howard -- another converted safety -- in the fold. The former Fossil Ridge standout responded by logging nine total tackles in his first start (against Stephen F. Austin in Week 2) and went on to start seven of 12 games. Wilson's 61 total tackles ranked fifth on the team.
TCU ex Aaron Green hopes Senior Bowl play is worth NFL Combine invite | Fort Worth Star Telegram
Green's performance at the Senior Bowl was great, but the back knows he still has a lot to work on.
“The main thing I wanted to focus on was improving on my pass protection,” Green said. “I definitely did that throughout the week. Also I did really well on special teams. That’s all I really wanted to do. I already knew I could run the ball with the best, so just wanted to make plays elsewhere.”

Many are arguing that it's Patterson's best coaching effort to date.
"If you just look at all the things we've had to do -- with all the players that have been out -- it's been outstanding," Patterson told ESPN's Brandon Chatmon. "It's been a whole building success story. Nobody lost faith in what's been going on. The key to it is that we aren't going to make excuses. We'll play and let the chips fall and go about our business."

“Our confidence is starting to grow slowly but surely,” coach Trent Johnson said Monday during the Big 12 coaches conference call with reporters. “We’re as healthy as we’ve been in a long time, and we’re just starting to play better. And we just need to continue that, and that’s on me.”
Oklahoma Sooners MMB Behind Enemy Lines | Crimson and Cream Machine
Check out the Q&A Felts did with CCM.
CCM - What is the biggest weakness of this team that OU may take advantage of?
FoW - To build on the point above, I think Oklahoma will find a ton of success behind the arc tonight. This Sooners team is packed full of talented shooters, and it shouldn't take much to create easy scoring opportunities against this TCU defense. I fear that the Frogs will rely too much on double-teaming Buddy Hield that other talented shooters are finding easier shots.
