While the TCU Horned Frogs will certainly be focused on preparing for the Alamo Bowl, Sonny Dykes and the program must prepare to fill their vacancy at quarterback.
Amid Josh Hoover’s shock announcement to enter the transfer portal, Ken Seals will step in to lead the offense in what will be the final college football game of his career. That opens up a conversation about next year’s quarterback room and who will lead the Frogs.
Dykes discussed internal options, including freshman Adam Schobel, but also made it clear the team will push for a veteran quarterback in the portal. He said, “We’re going to bring in a quarterback that has got experience. We’re very excited about Adam Schobel and what he’s going to become. I had a meeting [with him] this morning, and told him our plan is to bring somebody in and create competition for that spot, and the winner takes it and runs.”
Schobel was a four-star recruit out of Columbus High School and was ranked the 16th-ranked quarterback in the nation. He led the Cardinals to a 12-1 record and a third-round playoff appearance in Texas 3A Division I. He went into his senior year with 7,668 career passing yards for 94 touchdowns and just eight interceptions.
