MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Kenny Hill became a curious case study during his first season as TCU’s quarterback.
He threw more passes to the opposing team than any quarterback in the Big 12. He also had more passes dropped by his own guys than any quarterback in the FBS, which might be the mother of all extenuating circumstances.
“The Thrill” produced his share of namesake moments: Those 3,208 passing yards were the third-most in TCU history, and combined with 609 yards rushing, Hill ranked 18th nationally in total offense. But the stat that mattered — six wins and seven losses — revealed how much refinement is needed.
