TCU linebacker outlook for 2018: Could a true freshman see the field this season?

It's almost time for spring football! As we inch closer to practices, let's take a look at the Frogs' positional outlooks for the 2018 season.

Linebacker

Key returnees: Ty Summers (senior), Montrel Wilson (senior), Arico Evans (senior), Alex Bush (senior)

Key losses: Travin Howard (graduation), Sammy Douglas (graduation)

Newcomers: Ben Wilson (3-star LB, Sumner, Wa.), Jacoby Simpson (3-star LB, Houston), Izaih Filikitonga (3-star LB, Euless)

Biggest unanswered question: TCU's biggest defensive loss, without question, is Travin Howard. DE Mat Boesen and CB Ranthony Texada come close, but they didn't produce like Howard did in his final two seasons as a Horned Frog.
