Horned Frogs look to remain undefeated in Mountain West play

After coming to TCU as a graduate assistant, Jarrett Anderson is in his 15th year overall with the Horned Frogs.

In February 2009, Anderson was promoted to co-offensive coordinator. He also became the running backs coach after serving as wide receivers coach the previous eight seasons.

In both of Anderson's first two seasons as a coordinator, TCU set single-season school records for touchdowns, points scored and first downs while also ranking among the nation's most productive units. The Horned Frogs won 25 of 26 games and made back-to-back BCS appearances, including winning the 2011 Rose Bowl.

With Anderson's guidance in 2011, Ed Wesley, Matthew Tucker and Waymon James earned honorable mention All-Mountain West honors. Each rushed for more than 600 yards, while Tucker found the end zone a team-best 12 times.

In 2010, Anderson helped direct TCU to single-season school marks in touchdowns (73), points scored (541), total offense (6,199 yards) and first downs (327). The Horned Frogs ranked fourth nationally in scoring (41.6 points per game), sixth in passing efficiency (166.9), 10th in rushing (247.4 yards per game) and 12th in total offense (476.9 yards per game).

As a sophomore in 2010, Ed Wesley ran for 1,078 yards to become TCU's first 1,000-yard rusher since 2003. He was a first-team All-Mountain West Conference selection and one of 10 semifinalists for the Doak Walker Award as the nation's top running back.

Wesley and fellow tailbacks Matthew Tucker and Waymon James all recorded 100-yard games in the 2010 campaign.

In 2009, the Horned Frogs established previous single-season school marks for points scored (498), total offense (5,937 yards), touchdowns (65) and first downs (311).

TCU ranked fifth nationally in rushing offense (239.5 yards per game) and scoring (38.3 points per game) while placing seventh in total offense (456.7 yards per game) and eighth in passing efficiency (154.1).

Anderson helped mentor Tucker and Wesley into being the Frogs' second- and third-leading rushers with 676 and 638 yards, respectively. Those totals represented the fifth- and sixth-best rushing totals by a freshman in TCU history.

In 2008, Jimmy Young became the first TCU wide receiver to be named All-Mountain West Conference. Young had 988 yards receiving to narrowly miss just the second 1,000-yard season in TCU history. His 59 receptions tied for the fourth-best total on the Frogs' single-season chart.

Under Anderson's tutelage, three TCU receivers in eight years were drafted by NFL teams.

Cory Rodgers was a fourth-round pick by Green Bay in 2006. Adrian Madise and LaTarence Dunbar were selected in the fifth and sixth rounds in 2003 by Denver and Atlanta, respectively. All three finished their careers in the top 10 of various TCU receiving categories.

Reggie Harrell, who signed as a free agent with Dallas, became TCU's first 1,000-yard receiver in 2003.

During his three-year career, Rodgers tied Mike Renfro's career TCU mark of 17 receiving touchdowns.

Both Harrell and Rodgers rank among the top 10 in school history in career receptions and yards while earning all-conference recognition.

In 2006, Quentily Harmon closed his career as TCU's ninth-leading receiver with 111 catches. In addition, Michael DePriest was signed as a free-agent in 2007 by Indianapolis.

Prior to assuming his current duties, Anderson served on the TCU coaching staff as a graduate assistant from 1998-00, working primarily with the Frogs' offensive line.

Anderson spent one season (1997) as an assistant coach at Tyler Junior College, where he worked with the running backs and receivers. He began his collegiate playing career at Tyler before transferring to New Mexico. He lettered for the Lobos in both 1992 and 1993.

Anderson graduated from New Mexico in 1993 with a bachelor's degree in university studies and earned a master's degree in TCU's MLA program.

Anderson and his wife, Lisa, have two sons: Aidan and Eli.
