TCU’s KaVontae Turpin: All I’m asking is forgiveness and a second chance

Ex-TCU returner KaVontae Turpin is asking for forgiveness and a second chance after being dismissed from the Frogs’ football team last month on the heels of arrests for two domestic violence charges.

Turpin issued his first lengthy statement since being kicked off the team, posting on his Twitter account: “First off, I want to thank Texas Christian University for giving me an opporutnity to be a part of their program. I want to thank Coach [Gary] Patterson and the whole coaching staff for growing me up and teaching me things I didn’t know in life.
