For nearly an hour of an hour-long spring game Saturday at Amon G. Carter Stadium, TCU coach Gary Patterson watched five quarterbacks try mightily — some might say futiley — to put the offense in the end zone.
It reminded him of something.
“It’s kind of like 2014,” he said. “We missed some plays on deep routes. We’ve got to be able to do that.”
Well, 2014 turned out to be a pretty good year. It was the first season with the Air Raid offense at TCU, and Patterson is quick to refresh memories about how much of a struggle it was to execute the new system that spring.
