FORT WORTH (August 15) -- The #20 TCU Horned Frogs opened fall practice Tuesday (8/15) with the first of twice-daily practices. The Frogs will practice twice each day this week, leading up to Saturday afternoon's Meet the Frogs day.

"Today was a great first day," said Dennis Franchione. "There was a lot of carryover from our work in the spring. The work they put in this summer was evident in today's practices."

Franchione singled out wide receiver Cedric James, tight end Matt Schobel and cornerback Greg Walls as standouts in the opening day of fall drills. The Frogs will practice twice Wednesday (8 a.m. and 5:30 p.m.) at the Morris Practice Fields.
