FWST: TCU can use returning cornerback Texada as example for younger DBs

 Now that Ranthony Texada is back on the field for TCU, he provides more than a healthy body at cornerback.

He’s an example.

Defensive coordinator Chad Glasgow saw Texada make an impact as a freshman two years ago. He believes it was lasting.

“I think it really helps young guys who have seen other young guys that were in the same situation and stepped in and had some success,” Glasgow said. “Like with Julius Lewis last year. Julius came in and played really well toward the end of the year and had a lot of confidence. And the more those young guys can come in and have confidence early, the faster their career starts to go.”
