[QUOTE="TEUFELI, post: 794332, member: 28192"] No offense, but I think that is ridiculous. I am extremely pleased with what CDC has done. He has some skins on the wall that can never be taken. He will always be the guy that was in the chair when we moved to an AQ. Having said that, a lot of what he has been able to do (and received credit for) has been because of those who came before him. He has stood on the shoulders of Eric Hyman and Danny Morrison (and I don't mean that to sound negative). But if Hyman and Morrison, and to a greater extent Patterson...hadn't gotten this program to the heights it is at now, then that Big East move and the stadium do NOT get done. As far as raising money, he certainly played a role, but I still give more credit to the FW Community and the success of the past decade of TCU Football than I do to CDC. In other words, I think someone else who stepped in here at the moment CDC did, probably could have taken the tools Hyman, Morrison, and GP have given him and gone out and raised that $ from the individuals in FW who made the decision to donate it. Not bagging on CDC, he has not screwed this up, which can be the tendency when someone new walks in with their own way of thinking. In fact the Ath Dept HAS flourished even more under him, but I dont necessarily credit his 'accomplishments' as directly attributable to him and him alone as you seem to. Just my opinion [/QUOTE]
Verification
Which team did TCU defeat in the College Football Playoffs?
