TCU has arrived

[Gunner]

First time I can ever remember TCU's name on a whole bunch of the State's Top 50 or 100..

After all the years, 12 now, of winning like crazy, they finally recognize our recruits. Now that is progress.

Believe they get all that info from Rivals, so what could you expect from a bunch of SEC guys.. :biggrin:

 

[joefrog91]

I was saying the same thing yesterday about the Waco Trib. There would maybe be 1 TCU commit in their Top 100 list. Was so happy to see all the TCU commits this year in the paper. Still can't understand why that Blackshear kid chose Baylor though.

 

[SoonerFrogs]

I noticed the same thing in the Waco paper. TCU is very prominent in the top 100 list. Even 3 years ago theyd be lucky to have one or two.

 

[FrogAbroad]

Got links to that list, anybody?

 

[joefrog91]

Well, the Waco Trib is now a pay site for the Sports section. So, I can't post that one.

 

[SoonerFrogs]

there are ways around the pay wall in the waco trib. ill see if i can find it online.

 

[froginaustin]

The Waco Trib is hardly worth the trouble.

Definitely not worth paying for.

Cant get it to post without HTML tags...sorry

 

[ricksterh]

imo this is a combination of two factors. One TCU is getting
looks and commits from some very good players and two
the recruiting sited have finally figured out that
they are rating our recruits higher because they are coming
to TCU they must be good. :biggrin:

Can anybody provide a link to the FWST or DMN or houston
Comical top 50 or 100 lists?

[Bonner4Prez]

Yeah we have a bunch on the Houston Comical list

This list only shows firm commits I guess:

[steelfrog]

Thanks, Gunner! Finally, some reliable recruiting info.

Is the Gildon kid any kin to former Stillers great Jason Gildon?

Cant get it to post without HTML tags...sorry

Any time anyone has this trouble: copy then paste to a text editor (Notepad in Windows). then copy and paste that to kf.c . All html tags will be removed.

 

[Gunner]

Don't know about the relationship. But I do know, that Gildon is one heck of a linebacker. He can really schuck OL's... :biggrin:

 

[Frog_Fan71]

SMU snagged Ronnell Sims. That's good for them.

 

[SnoopFrogs11]

How highly was LaDarius Brown rated in the Texas top 50?

 

[LVfrog]

It's just another step in our rise to greatness. The staff does an exceptional job of finding good players who have the Frog factor.
