TCU football names grad transfer Alex Delton starting quarterback | Texas Football

Don’t be confused, Delton has earned this job. Now, he will have to work to keep it.

“I feel like I’ve been practicing very well,” Delton said. “I feel like we’ve created an identity throughout camp. It’s going to carry over to the season. I’m excited to get to this first ballgame and get going.”

The Hays, Kansas, native completed 56.1 percent of his passes for 1,202 yards, five touchdowns and four interceptions at Kansas State. The dual-threat quarterback added 213 rushes for 768 yards and 11 touchdowns on the ground.

Delton was often used as a running quarterback in Bill Snyder’s single-wing rushing offense. However, TCU offensive coordinator Sonny Cumbie is an air raid protege. Delton will be asked to throw the ball much more consistently. However, he thinks the new system will help his production.

“I think they get the best of both qualities in us. I was big and strong and mom was explosive,” Curtis said. “It’s hard to put into words the pride you have for your children. To see them do what they love at a very high level, it’s a blessing.”
