[QUOTE="Zubaz, post: 2662823, member: 3528"] Weird article. Headline says he begged to come to TCU, but nobody confirms (his high school coach basically says "he never said that, but maybe it's true") and the text suggests that his interest in TCU was only after he was rejected by Texas and A&M, and below even Baylor where had some legacy tie-ins. Then despite whatever interest he did have, we didn't offer him because we didn't want an option QB....but he wasn't an option QB...and we ran the option with Bateaux (though I'm not sure if that was new to Fran when he came in 1998). His recruiting profile goes on to say that he was only recruited by Purdue and Kentucky, both of which were better offers than TCU at the time. So...not really seeing it. [/QUOTE]
Verification
Which team did TCU defeat in the College Football Playoffs?
