TCU is down to a single player that started for them a season ago after losing sophomore Ranthony Texada for the season with a torn ACL against SMU. Alongside Derrick Kindred is a mixed bag of inexperienced players and walk-ons, as even the guys expected to compete for starting roles - or at least to be contributors as rotational players - are out of the fold due to position changes mandated by injuries. Kenny Iloka is out for the season, Montrel Wilson and Travin Howard have moved from safety to the starting linebacker spots, and other than Nick Orr - who has bounced from safety to corner so far - and Denzel Johnson, there haven't been a lot of bright spots on the back end.
