(Photo by Steve Bry ant) TCU scouting report. . . Frogs young and explosive BY VICTOR MOORE Battalion Sports Writer The TCU Horned Frogs will try to bounce back into the con ference race against the Aggies in Kyle Field Saturday night, after losing to Arkansas in their Southwest Conference opener. The Frogs (1-3-1) (0-1) are young and aggressive. With only four offensive and two defensive returning starters, TCU will start 10 or 11 sophomores. Do not sell the first year men short though. They are one of the best rookie crops coach Fred Taylor has put together for some sea sons. They include running backs Raymond Rhodes and Larry Har ris, both blessed with good speed and a lot of promise; defensive backs Danny Colbert, Ewin Gar nett, and Hodges Mitchell; huge defensive linemen: (6-7, 240) tackle Larry Dibbs, (6-5, 230) tackle Ken Hanson, (6-5, 240) tackle Jerry Hale, and (6-4, 235) tackle Ken Steel. The defense is not blessed with a lot of depth. The Frogs will play one senior, three juniors, and seven sophomores in the starting roles. This lack of depth could account for the record the Frogs have until now. The de fense is working as a team, not as individuals, and is led by sen ior Bob Creech, a All-Southwest Conference candidate. Behind Creech, there are four sopho mores in the secondary, Colbert, Garnett, Mitchell and Richard Wiseman. Colbert handling the punt re turns has the capability to break a game open with a long run- back, as proven last week against Oklahoma State University, when he went 89 yards for a touch down. Steel, one of the starting de fensive sophomores, penetrates the offensive line so well, he has been able to block several punts. Last week Steel did his trick against OSU not once, but twice. Last year’s quarterback, Steve Judy, will again return to the helm, with a list of merits from his sophomore year that is very impressive. Judy set twelve new school records, while he ranked 15th in the nation in total offense (2019) and 16th in passing (144- 283 for 1677 yards). Along with Judy, the backfield will be composed of sophomore Rhodes, named outstanding of fensive player in the Southwest Conference as a freshman, soph omore Lee Harris, a linebacker on the freshman team, and jun ior James Hodges, a defensive back last year will share duties with sophomore Larry Harris, a junior college transfer. The backfield already hurt be cause of graduation suffered an other loss in the Arkansas game when junior running back Bobby Davis received a broken bone. Davis was the number five TCU rusher last year and had a 5.9 yard per carry average on 53 carries before he was hurt, with a game high of 247 yards on 18 carries. Davis’ loss is a big one and as a result Hodges and Lar ry Harris will be sharing duties he had performed. Rhodes returns the kickoffs for the Horned Frogs and is capable of going all the way. Against Arkansas, he was a step from returning it all the way as he ran by the Arkansas defenders for 56 yards. The offensive line is also hurt ing because of graduation. Only three veterans returned, center John Ruthstrom (6-3, 245); tackle George Kirby (6-3, 230), and guard J. R. Eubanks (6-2, 230), a tight end last year, moved to guard in the spring. Eubanks, however sustained a broken bone in the Arkansas game and will be out for the season. With the offensive line taking a serious loss at guard, sopho more Lloyd Draper has moved over from second string tackle, making four of the seven start ing defensive linemen first year men. Five of their replacements are sophomores. In TCU’s five games this year, Judy has blended his passing for 744 yards, with the running game that has picked up 965 yards. who follows heralded Tony Pen! and Johnny Bench in the Reii batting order and home runic tals, put Cincinnati ahead witi dramatic suddenness when k tagged the first pitch to hind; reliever Ed Watt into the lef field bleachers for a homer.
