Rice’s football team is coming to TCU while it sorts out its plans to get back home to Houston after a trip to Australia for their season opener.
But for Owls coach David Bailiff, it will be a bit like home.
He is a former TCU assistant under Gary Patterson, who called it a “no-brainer” to extend an offer of the Horned Frogs’ facilities for a few days’ layover, if necessary, while the Owls wait out Hurricane Harvey, a storm being called potentially the worst disaster in Texas history by FEMA.
“Whatever we can do,” Patterson said Monday during the Big 12 coaches conference call.
