DieHards: TCU DT Corey Bethley graded second-best freshman in country in Week 1 by PFF

TCU’s 2017 recruiting class already is making an impact. One of its members, defensive tackle Corey Bethley, stood out in Week 1.

The freshman defensive lineman from Katy, Texas, was rated as a 3-star recruit, according to the 247Sports composite rankings. Coach Gary Patterson talked up Bethley’s potential as a possible starter before the season. He was named one of the top freshmen to watch in the Big 12 this season by CBS Sports.

Bethley wasn’t the only TCU freshman to have a breakout performance in Week 1. Running back Kenedy Snell score the Horned Frogs’ first touchdown of the season, and the highlight of that score was viewed more than 3 million times on Instagram.

TCU plays Arkansas at 2:30 p.m. CT on Saturday on CBS.

This is great to see. Recruiting is such a crapshoot, you never know if some of these guys will ever pan out, looks like we got a good one, and a potentially great one.

Nope. Better than Chucky.
He certainly has the potential to be better. Chucky was an unsung hero for us...All those TCU teams that we're dominant against the run were because Chucky did the little things that doesn't show up in the stat sheets. He played with incredible leverage and was rarely move from the point of attack..We had a few linebackers around that only got NFL shots because of Chucky

Saying CB is better isn't disparaging Chucky. Chucky was a very good player for us. CB is better. 4 years from now we're gonna be talking about how he and Blacklock were two of the biggest recruits of the GP era IMO.
