This year won’t soon be forgotten for a variety of reasons, and that rings true for TCU Football. Gary Patterson’s Horned Frogs saw two players selected in the first round for only the second time in program history and the first time since 1939.Wide receiver Jalen Reagor was picked 21st overall by the Eagles and cornerback Jeff Gladney picked 31st overall by the Vikings. In 1939, TCU’s head coach was the legendary Dutch Meyer, a two-time national champion who is known today in Fort Worth for being the namesake of an excellent burger joint on South University Drive.
Rounds two and three made more history.
