TCU football welcomes back nearly all of its standout linebackers from the 2023 season. Getting them on the field could be a bigger question, as the Horned Frogs are moving to a 4-2-5 defensive alignment under new defensive coordinator Andy Avalos. Unlike the 3-3-5 scheme TCU ran under former coordinator Joe Gillespie, the Horned Frogs will only have two linebackers anchoring the middle of the defense, with the third linebacker filling an edge-rushing role around the defensive line.

Texas Teachers Are The Most Overworked In The U.S.
It certainly appears that we aren't taking very good care of our teachers. A number of Texas school districts have kicked off the school year.
