Luginbill breaks down TCU Elite 11
Future Horned Frogs signal-caller
TCU commit Austin Aune of Argyle (Argyle, Texas) reminds us so much of current Horned Frogs QB Casey Pachall. Aune is your prototypical slight build, tall prospect with a live arm and good feet. He will likely put on 15-20 pounds over the next three years, enjoy the luxury of redshirting and developing at a normal pace. Aunde has upside and is a late bloomer. He showed a smooth stroke and sharp velocity on short and intermediate throws and he also displayed sound footwork from center, which we love to see.
For you CCMOM :D
Red Raiders get a steal
A prospect we liked very much coming into the day, but has not received a lot of attention was Texas Tech verbal commit Clayton Nicholas of Cooper (Abilene, Texas). He did not have a single offer until Tommy Tuberville and the Red Raiders came calling, despite very impressive film work and a consistent demonstration in games that he could make all the throws at the next level and do it with a smooth stroke. Nicholas showed that stroke on Saturday, but it is clear he is exclusively accustomed to working from the shotgun, because he does not yet exhibit the proper footwork, setup balance and quickness you would like to see. Therefore he was inconsistent in his overall accuracy. There is no debating his natural arm strength or wrist velocity and once he gets coached up on footwork, he could really be good because he does the other things naturally and he is blessed with good size. Tuberville got a nice steal here.
Looks like Bwd may have their hands full with FW All Saints this year. Maybe not such a push-over like most have said:thinking: :thinking:
The initial roster looked promising and while we were disappointed that prospects Ford Childress (Houston, Texas/Kincaid) and T.J. Millweard (Fort Worth, Texas/All Saints Episcopal) were not in attendance, there were plenty of surprising and impressive performances.
