It took one recruiting season for Zarnell Fitch to earn a nickname from TCU coach Gary Patterson.
“Rock star. Zarnell’s a rock star,” he said.
Actually, two nicknames.
“He’s the Pied Piper. Kids love him.”
Fitch, a former TCU player who finished his first season as defensive line coach, helped TCU land the country’s No. 31 recruiting class. He and cornerbacks coach Paul Gonzales impressed Patterson with their recruiting efforts.
“Both of those guys have been awesome, for young guys,” Patterson said last week at his National Signing Day press conference.
