TCU News: Frogs Fall to Mavs

Big home run helps UT Arlington redeem itself against TCU | The Star-Telegram

Sean Wymer was strong in the two innings he pitched, striking out five. But a big home run off of Rex Hill (after an error) and a wild pitch ended TCU's win streak at five games. It was a sloppy game for the Frogs, and a potential jumping off point for a Mavericks squad that has been excellent offensively as of late.

TCU (22-6), headed to a three-game Big 12 series at Kansas on Friday, committed two errors and was out-hit 13-6. The Frogs had only two hits until the eighth inning.

"They outplayed us in every phase of the game," Schlossnagle said. "We got back into it on one swing of the bat. Too little, too late."

The No. 17 rated player in the class of 2017, and top outside linebacker, Browning will have his pick of blue blood programs come February.

According to 247 Sports, Browning is crystal balled to Texas at 42-percent, but some of the other top programs on the list will have something to say about that.

Who will the Horned Frogs peg to to replace workhorse RB Aaron Green? | Dallas Morning News

Aaron Green was one of the most under-appreciated players in the country the past two seasons, but Frog fans knew how special he was. Now it's up to one of the young guys to fill his quick-cutting shoes.

Hicks in particular looked promising with his 4.2 carries per game, averaging 5.8 yards. That will provide a bridge to the two tailbacks TCU added in the 2016 recruiting class, though both are capable of contributing as freshmen. Sewo Olonillua, aRivals four-star athlete, is already enrolled at TCU after graduating from Kingwood in December and practicing with the tailbacks. Meanwhile George Ranch running back and Rivals three-star Darius Anderson was a highly sought-after recruit and is yet to enroll at school.
