After 21 seasons as head coach, Gary Patterson and TCU parted ways on Sunday. Jerry Kill will be the interim coach for the remainder of the season.
Patterson finished 181-79 with the Horned Frogs and had a 13-0 season in 2010 when TCU won the Rose Bowl.
TCU currently has 11 total commitments for the 2022 class, which is good for No. 48 nationally and seventh in the Big 12. We reached out to those commits asking for their response to Patterson’s removal and checking on where their commitments stand with the Horned Frogs.
