TCU football notebook: New defense continues to build confidence

As spring practice winds down for TCU, the Horned Frogs are feeling good about where things stand with just one practice remaining before the spring game. D

espite injuries ravaging the offense, there’s been a number of encouraging signs especially on defense when once again defensive coordinator Andy Avalos’ unit won the day against the offense. The defense gave up just three points in six 11-on-11 drives Tuesday and also forced multiple turnovers once again.

It’s the type of performance that the defense has become accustomed to during the spring and for returning linebacker Namdi Obiazor, the new defense is one reason he’s optimistic the upcoming season will be much different than last year’s 5-7 campaign.

The defense making great strides is great news. The offense from reports appears to be in neutral, is that correct? One reason is that injuries have taken a toll, but why were when they barely mentioned when KAZ took over? What has caused the injuries? Now is when we need all hands to participate, esp on offense.

Long-term opinions on this offense. Is Hoover's absence hurting us that much? Also, noticed dropped passes are mentioned frequently. From quoting coach speak, we took care of that problem this year. What this boils down to is, are we just a little improved this year or just slightly improved?. Take your choice of words a little or slightly improved.
