For the third straight year, the TCU football program's high graduation rate has been recognized by the American Football Coaches Association. TCU was cited by the AFCA for graduating at least 75 percent of its players who entered as freshmen in 2003.
TCU is in the top 10 of the national rankings for the third straight season and fourth time in the last six years. The Horned Frogs are also one of just four programs to rank in the top 25 of the Associated Press poll and the top 25 of the Academic Progress Rate.
To go along with that, twelve TCU football players graduated this past Saturday, giving the Horned Frogs 17 players with a degree in hand when they take the field Jan. 1 at the Rose Bowl.
Receiving their TCU diplomas Saturday were:
Marcus Cannon, OT - Communication Studies
Andy Dalton, QB - Marketing
Jercell Fort, TB - Communication Studies
Evan Frosch, TE - Communication Studies
Bart Johnson, WR - Marketing
Colin Jones, S - Communication Studies
Jake Kirkpatrick, C - Management
