I’ll admit it, I was scared to death when Chris Del Conte left his purple suits for that ugly orange color on his way to University Texas, leaving the friendly confines of Fort Worth for the bright lights of Austin.
I didn’t know much about his heir apparent, but I knew enough about CDC. We have now all heard the story of his behind the scenes work to secure the Horned Frogs a seat at the table when A&M, Missouri, Colorado, and Nebraska defected the Big 12 for supposed greener pastures elsewhere, creating a rare Power Five opening for ‘little ol’ TCU’.
