KaVontae Turpin’s case indicates TCU needs a more comprehensive investigative process

We’ve learned a lot in the last 48 hours.

First, on Monday morning, we learned that TCU receiver/returner KaVontae Turpin had been arrested on Sunday, and charged with assault causing bodily injury to a family member. Next, we heard the details, which were disturbing, and Gary Patterson made it known on his Monday conference call that Turpin was suspended, while the coaching staff gathered more information.

Later in the afternoon news broke that Turpin had previously been arrested in Las Cruces, New Mexico in March of this year, for battery and property damage.
