  Van Zandt was a big-play guy in 2020. He recorded both of his interceptions in the first two games the Frogs won on the season. He created momentum when there was none, and TCU used his interceptions as momentum shifters in victories over Baylor and a ranked Texas team. TCU is losing its two best safeties to the 2020 NFL draft, and Van Zandt might be the perfect guy to step into one of the roles. He showed he at least deserves a look based on the opportunities he received last season. - Dallas Morning News

  04/01/21 - Obinna EzerSr/2022, Texas Christian, 6-7, 328 (DS#25 OT) + More +

  Obinna Eze is a graduate transfer from Memphis where he started every game the last two seasons. Eze was a highly recruited four-star prospect with offers to Alabma, Auburn and Florida, and it's safe to say that Eze is a big guy, standing at 6-8, 315 pounds. In 2020, the TCU offensive line allowed quarterback Max Duggan to be sacked 23 times, and Eze might just be the answer to the problem. If Eze can stop opposing rushers from getting into the backfield, Duggan will have more time to throw the ball downfield. - Dallas Morning News

  03/27/21 - Derius DavisrSr/2023, Texas Christian, 5-08, 165 (DS#33 WR) + More +

  Derius Davis exploded in 2020 and stepped into the role of the Frogs' go-to punt returner after Nebraska transfer J.D. Spielman suffered a season-ending shoulder injury. Davis finished the season with 218 punt return yards and an average of 14.53 yards per return and two touchdowns. The speedster, who ran the fifth fastest 400m time in the nation in high school while at West Feliciana, has a punt return touchdown in two of his three years at TCU - with the other coming his freshman year. TCU head coach Gary Patterson said Davis is already a standout for the 2021 season after the start of spring practice. Davis finished the season with the third most receiving yards for the Frogs with 209 behind Quentin Johnston and Taye Barber. - Dallas Morning News

  TCU coach Gary Patterson feels NFL teams are asking the same questions he did when it comes to Ar'Darius Washington. Washington checked in at just 5-foot-8, 178 pounds at TCU's pro day on Friday, not the ideal size for today's NFL safety. "He wasn't as big as I wanted him to be. He wasn't as fast as I wanted him to be. All the above," Patterson said. "But at the end of the day, he's a guy who has a lot of passion for the game and he makes a lot of plays." In 2020, Washington started all 10 games and finished with 37 tackles, including one tackle for loss and five pass breakups. He earned honorable mention All-Big 12 honors. At the pro day, Washington reportedly ran a 40-yard dash in the 4.61-second to 4.63-second range. He also had a 37 1/2-inch vertical jump and a 10 feet, 7 inch broad jump. "I felt decent," Washington said afterward. "Obviously there were a lot of things I could've done better, definitely from a technique standpoint. I felt overall I did pretty good." - Fort Worth Star

  TCU linebacker Garret Wallow's pre-draft process had a significant setback when he pulled out of the Senior Bowl after testing positive for COVID-19 in late January. He made up for that during his pro day on Friday. Wallow was arguably TCU's biggest winner during the day, testing well and showcasing his athleticism in front of almost 60 NFL executives and scouts. Among those in attendance included Carolina Panthers coach Matt Rhule, New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton and Minnesota Vikings general manager Rick Spielman. "I definitely think I helped myself today," Wallow said afterward. "Especially doing both linebacker and safety drills. Definitely gave them another aspect of fluidity. Definitely bummed about not being able to do the Senior Bowl, but this is why I used today to give it my all." - Fort Worth Star

  TCU linebacker Garret Wallow is not taking part in this week's Senior Bowl after testing positive for COVID-19. Wallow revealed the positive test on his social media account Tuesday night, writing in part: "This was very unexpected because I always wear a mask everywhere I go. Fortunately, I feel better and look forward to getting back to work as soon as possible." Wallow, who is listed at 6-foot-2, 230 pounds, is viewed by some as a possible top-100 pick in the upcoming NFL Draft. He is coming off another standout season in 2020, earning first-team All-Big 12 honors with 90 tackles, including nine tackles for loss and three sacks. He also had five QB hits and three forced fumbles. - Fort Worth Star

  01/19/21 - T.J. CarterrSr/2022, Texas Christian, 5-09, 189 (DS#27 FS) + More +

  TCU football landed another Memphis transfer on Monday night. Defensive back T.J. Carter announced his intentions to play for the Horned Frogs, just 10 days after his Memphis teammate and offensive tackle Obinna Eze said he'd be coming to Fort Worth. Carter is listed at 5-foot-11, 190 pounds. Over four years and 46 games with the Tigers, he had 187 tackles, including six for a loss, seven interceptions and three forced fumbles. All of Carter's interceptions came in his first two seasons as he had five in 2017 and two in 2018. - Star-Telegram

  Senior defensive back TJ Carter is the latest multi-year starter to transfer from Memphis football. Carter, who started all four seasons with the Tigers, announced Tuesday via Twitter that he's entered the transfer portal. He was a Freshman All-American in 2017 but struggled the last two seasons. Carter played in seven games, with five starts, last season. He started in 44 out of 46 games that he played in and was the fourth Tigers player in the past 10 years to start his first game as a true freshman. - Memphis Commercial Appeal

  TCU football landed a big-time graduate transfer on Friday afternoon. Memphis left tackle Obinna Eze announced his intentions to join the Horned Frogs in a social media post, writing: "I'll be continuing my career at TCU and I'm excited for new opportunities." Eze has started 25 straight games at left tackle for Memphis. He graduated in December and has two years of eligibility remaining. TCU could have a void to fill at that spot depending on whether T.J. Storment returns next season. - Fort Worth Star

  2020 JIM THORPE AWARD (TOP DEFENSIVE BACK) WINNER: Trevon Moehrig, safety, TCU,...Moehrig was selected First-Team All-Big 12 by the conference head coaches for the second straight season. He had the game-saving interception with a one-handed snag in the end zone in the final minutes of a 29-22 win over No. 15 Oklahoma State on Dec. 5. The Spring Branch, Texas, native ranked among the national leaders with1.1 passes defended per game (two interceptions, nine pass breakups). His 11 passes defended trailed only teammate Tre'Vius Hodges-Tomlinson (13) in the Big 12. He placed third on the Horned Frogs with 47 tackles, including 2.0 for loss. - TCU Football

  TCU quarterback Stephon Brown has entered the NCAA transfer portal, a source confirmed Tuesday night. Brown never appeared in a game during his lone season with the Horned Frogs. Brown's decision isn't too surprising considering TCU landed Oklahoma transfer Chandler Morris on Sunday. Morris is expected to add competition and depth behind starter Max Duggan. Brown joined TCU as the top-rated JUCO dual-threat quarterback in the 2020 class out of Independence (Kansas) Community College. Coach Gary Patterson mentioned during fall camp that Brown would have a package in the Frogs' offense. But Brown never saw the field, serving as the third-string quarterback behind Duggan and backup Matthew Downing. - Fort Worth Star

  Trevon Moehrig is headed to the NFL. TCU's standout junior safety announced his intentions to turn professional on his social media on Saturday afternoon. Moehrig had one season left of eligibility (and possibly two seasons with the NCAA freezing eligibility this fall). Moehrig thanked God, his family, his TCU teammates and coaches in a post announcing his decision. Moehrig joins fellow safety Ar'Darius Washington as TCU's early entrants into the draft. Moehrig, who is listed at 6 feet, 2 inches and 202 pounds, is viewed as possibly the best safety in the 2021 class. That, however, doesn't mean he'll land in the first round. No safeties were taken in the first round of the 2020 draft. - Fort Worth Star-Telegram

  TCU's Ar'Darius Washington is headed to the NFL Draft, forgoing two years of eligibility. Washington made the announcement on social media, thanking God, his mom and siblings and his teammates and coaches at TCU. The biggest knock on Washington is expected to be his size. At 5-foot-8, 178 pounds, he does not have the ideal height to play at the next level. But he's produced as TCU's starting weak safety the past two seasons. Washington had 37 tackles this season, including one tackle for loss, and five pass breakups. The 37 tackles were the seventh-most on the team. - Fort Worth Star
