Maurice Jones-Drew, a star running back for the Jacksonville Jaguars, tweeted during the game, "the urban meyer rule is in effect right now... When the going gets tough........QUIT."

TCU men’s basketball aims to ground Air Force at home Saturday

Published Jan 27, 2011

Head men's basketball coach Jim Christian's goal at the beginning of the season was to get 17 wins.

But after losing 71-46 to New Mexico on the road Wednesday, that goal might be unrealistic, and Christian knows it.

"At this point I can't [look at 17 wins as a goal]. At this point, it's what can I do to get through to guys as individuals to get them to play better as a team, and as a whole, to win the game that night. That's what it's really about now," Christian said.

TCU's Saturday conference game against Air Force at 5:00 p.m. at Daniel-Meyer Coliseum will be more than just an opportunity for TCU to snap its four-game losing streak.

TCU will retire James Cash Jr.'s No. 54 jersey at halftime. Cash was the first African-American to play in the Southwest Conference from 1967-69 and also became the first full-time African-American professor at the Harvard Business School.

Cash also led TCU to a SWC championship in the 1967-68 season and is in the top-five all-time for TCU career points and rebounds.
