Garrett has chance to prove Cowboys still a national name

Published Jan 12, 2011

Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett certainly gave his team a spark as interim head coach, winning five out of the last eight games of the 2010 season after a dismal 1-7 start under Wade Phillips.

When called upon as Dallas' back-up quarterback, Garrett provided similar results as a player. His career totals of 11 touchdowns and 2,042 passing yards aren't stunning, but Cowboys purists will never forget Garrett's second-half heroics against Green Bay in a 42-31 victory during the 1994 season.

The dismissal of junior guard Sammy Yeager on Tuesday seemed to send a strong message to the rest of the TCU men's basketball team. The Frogs routed Wyoming 78-60 Wednesday evening at Daniel-Meyer Coliseum in their first game without Yeager.

"It was a tough blow, but he's a good player, and I wish him the best wherever else he goes," junior guard Ronnie Moss, who scored a game-high 27 points, said. "I know we are going to move forward. Some things just don't work out. God didn't have it in his plan."

Published Jan 11, 2011

The Horned Frogs will look to end their four-game losing streak against conference opponent Wyoming(8-8, 1-1 MWC) at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Daniel-Meyer Coliseum.
