Looks like a great kid and probably a great teammate but Geeezus that's a horrid offer list
He has. One of the worst I have ever seen for any Tcu player. Anyone know why? And please don't use the totally lame " because Tcu was on him all the big boys backed off".

Zack Allen offer list:
EAST ILLINOIS COLLEGE
NORTH TEXAS U
NEW MEXICO ST
TEXAS STATE COLLEGE
SAN ANTONIO (UT) UNIV
RICE
SYRACUSE

Yikes!

I don't know if it's the first post, all CAPS, or the "Tcu" that gave you away.

Welcome to TCU, Zach.

 

[Mr. Toad]

You do know that Clem offered him as a DB right? I mean you wouldn't be so foolish as to post off the cuff info with no real knowledge right? You would never do that ! (aren't u the same guy who posted that GP was going to KSU a few yrs back).

Some folks never learn even when yor pants get pulled down !

Oh....,and by the way......OSU told him his offer there was "conditional" meaning it isn't firmed up til later (and might get pulled like the many A&M decommits we are seeing) which also means they see him as a backup

Clemson offered as QB. KState as QB. OKState I dont know but I bet as QB

 

[BillupsFrog]

If TCU offers that's good enough for me. I trust our evaluations.

Wise choice Zach. Now you get to play in a real football stadium and not a cheap basketball arena.
Sorry that a sorry fanbase from a weak football conference couldn't have a little class when you made the decision.

Bwahahahaha! Stupid.

Good pickup, but did we really need a QB in this group with needs in other areas or did Boyce's decision to go pro free up a scholly?

I'm going to say yes. It was not the hightest need and certainly we should be in good shape for 2013 so long as Pachall stays healthy. Matthews has the credentials and all but we haven't seen him play. Assuming he's as good as advertised, he's still one play away from visiting a surgeon. Then what? Maybe TB improves, maybe not. But, regardless of whether that happens, if this guy can play, that would give us insurance of capable QB play from the starter and backup for the next 4 years. Pretty nice.

IMO we needed a QB in this class.

Absolutely. After his redshirt year , if he is the best he will be playing. That how it works around here. Brown was a miss at qb which saved TB.

He knows he has a shot. We don't know if Matthews is good yet.

Prediction:
TB starts next year. At least the first game or two. CP4 comes off the bench until he earns the starting spot back. Both QBs play with some Wild Frog action from Boykin.

 

[GoFrogs21]

If we were playing an FCS school to start the season I'd have no problem letting Boykin start the first game with CP4 getting some reps. LSU though? I don't know...

I think he's earned it plenty. He's shown leadership by taking responsibility and accepting punishment. His play on the field is hands down the best we have, hopefully his maturity equals his skill now.
