Wow! Color me extremely unimpressed. Rest of Big12 getting 4 star recruits and beating out SEC and Big 10 teams for top flight talent while Tcu battled McNeese St for Antoine and UTSA for Denzel Johnspn. Geeeez ! This is how Tcu finishes this class? EGADS !
And before any of you tell me that Tcu has a "special skill" of finding "hidden gems" (which is simply a way to put lipstick on a pig and a nicer name for a scrub that nobody else wanted) - please exlain this:
1) Tcu currently has the largest failure rate of football players of any school in all of Div1 college football losing more players off their team (grades, transferring, drugs, DUIs, etc) than any school in the nation.
2) Tcu fans claim that Tcu develops players better than any other college is a total fabricstion and fantasy, completely bogus and an outright lie as
Tcu is actually ranked last in the Big12 in developing players for the pros. READ BELOW -

In fact, this website debunks a lot of myths that have manifested over the years about Patterson's ability to out-develop the competition. In particular, the myth that Patterson has turned TCU into DE and Linebacker U. Lets look closer.
Number of currently active NFL players per Big XII school:
Texas - 42 (4 DE's, 6 LB's)
OU - 25 (4 DE's, 3 LB's)
OSU - 20 (2 DE's, 1 LB)
K State - 16 (0 DE, 4 LB's)
W Virg - 15 (1 DE, 2 LB's)
Tx Tech - 13 (1 DE, 2 LB's)
Baylor - 12 (0 DE, 0 LB)
TCU -12 (1 DE, 3 LB's)
Kansas - 8 (0 DE, 2 LB's)
I State - 6 (0 DE, 1 LB)
At 12 active NFL players, TCU falls well short of the average number of NFL players per Big XII team (16.9) and below the median number (15). And, with the exception of Iowa State and Baylor, TCU hasn't shown any significant superior ability to develop defensive ends and linebackers over their Big XII counterparts. Thought this was interesting.

Solid first post SheikFrog. I also ate The Lineman at Dutches for lunch. Very big burger.

But what beer did you wash it down with Kyle43?
I do agree that The Lineman is a good burger.

So we have 12 guys in the NFL who were all Mountain West recruits while OSU, Tech, K State have barely a handful more, from B12 talent? Leaving off UT and OU, who get so much recruitment talent that I'd be amazed if they didn't have those kinds of numbers, it looks like we do a better job developing talent than the others.
I know this guy is a troll, just thought I'd point out that even these numbers don't really paint that bad of a picture.

Wow! Color me extremely unimpressed.
1) I always get the Bacon Bleu Cheese Burger.
2) So does Mrs. Turk.
http://www.dutchshamburgers.com/
In fact, this website debunks a lot of myths about the Lineman and other burger offerings from Dutch's, and proves the superiority of the Bacon Bleu Cheese.
Number of current Dutch's burgers who have made Texas Monthly's list of 50 Best Burgers in Texas:
Lineman: ---
Bacon Bleu Cheese: #4
Dutch: ---
Texana: ---
Hickory Bacon and BBQ: ---
Of the nine active burgers on Dutch's menu, the Lineman falls well short of the Bacon Bleu Cheese. And, with the exception of the Chicken and Roasted Green Chile and Portabello Veggie Burger, the Lineman hasn't shown any superiority beyond mere number of patties.
