Honestly, this TCU team could be more talented while losing more games. Last year was crazy.

How is the QB position looking? I tuned in for that KState game and was incredibly impressed by Duggan’s grit. It made it even easier to pull for TCU in the playoffs

The expected starter, Chandler Morris, actually beat out Duggan in fall camp last year. He’s really well regarded, and better suited to the offensive style Sonny likes. He’s looked good when healthy. In particular he was lights out in the 2021 Baylor game, but just hasn’t stayed healthy, getting hurt, IIRC, in the next game.

He got hurt again vs CU in the first half last year, and Duggan showed he’d improved dramatically. Those of us who’d been watching his career could see some of the same tendencies and temptations were still there, but not as bad and it let let his strengths stand out.
