TCU reserves Bane, Parrish play big roles in upset of No. 1 Kansas

TCU men’s basketball coach Jamie Dixon scanned the stats sheet after Thursday’s 85-82 upset of No. 1 Kansas in the Sprint Center. He noticed double-digit scoring contributions from five Horned Frogs, including reserve guards Desmond Bane and Brandon Parrish.

“I’m proud of them because it took everybody,” Dixon said, summing up the blueprint used in securing the Frogs’ first win over a nationally No.1-ranked team in program history. “It took the whole team.”

At the end, it took Bane making three free throws with 2.5 seconds remaining to allow the Horned Frogs (19-14) to advance to Friday’s semifinals of the Big 12 tournament against Iowa State.
