After a disappointing season, TCU’s co-offensive coordinator Doug Meacham is leaving Fort Worth to take the sole coordinator job at Big 12 rival Kansas, as announced by the Jayhawks Thursday morning.
It’s a surprising move to say the least, as Meacham - who was pursued by several programs a year ago as a head coaching candidate - takes a similar role to his duties in Fort Worth at a moribund program who hasn’t won more than a single game in conference play since 2008. They have been TCU’s kryptonite through the years, playing even the top Gary Patterson teams as tightly as anyone in the conference.
