Also offered by Notre Dame, Nebraska, Baylor, Houston & Arizona. TCU now has 8 commits and at least 2 should be considered elite prospects. Paschall is a 4 star by Rivals. Dugat is a 5 star by Scout and should be ranked highly by Rivals once all their ratings come out.

Stats don't make sense. Way better his soph. year. Maybe an injury? Missed some games?

Texas Football Report:

Brownwood QB Casey Pachall, a player most outlets have ranked in the state's top 100 players and amongst the top five or six quarterbacks, has given out his verbal commitment to the Horned Frogs, making him one of the best and most highly touted recruits that TCU has landed in quite some time. To put things in perspective, Pachall also had an offer from Notre Dame and links to both Oklahoma, Arizona and other BCS programs.

So how big could this be for TCU? Well, Pachall has the type of frame (6-4) that can develop into an NFL body if he can add 20-25 pounds of weight and an absolutely huge arm -- there is no throw that he is physically incapable of making, and his windup/release is surprisingly quick for the amount of power he puts into it. He can also run, and has excellent speed and agility for a kid his size. In short, Pachall has all the tools and is going to be as good as he wants to be. To put it mildly, this is a huge addition for the Frogs.

If Pachall stays true to his commitment, he's in great shape to have a productive collegiate career. Assuming current Horned Frog quarterback Andy Dalton stars for three more years as many expect, then Pachall could start as just a sophomore if he redshirts his true freshman year. It's a perfect situation -- a redshirt year to grow, one year as a backup, then he takes the field for the next three. Very promising.

Brownwood stepped up a division and though had a stout D and even with Stavion Lowe on the OL, the overall OL was really bad. Casey has great footwork, a quick release and good speed but was sacked 18 times and most coming in district play. He has all the tools to be a good one.

If he is truely a five star then he will be switching his commitment eventually - why would a good qb play in that offense? It does not set up well for the qb.

TCU already has 4 commits from players in both the Aggie Yell & LSR Top 100 for Texas. Rivals hasn't come out with their official State 100, but these two lists are generally close. 2 commits are in the Scout.com Top 100 in the nation.
