Rest assured, TCU fans will remember the 2015 Alamo Bowl — a game that will see their quarterback mired in controversy.
Trevone Boykin was arrested early Thursday morning in San Antonio, according to News 4 San Antonio. This comes just two days before the Valero Alamo Bowl between No. 11 TCU and No. 15 Oregon kicks off as one of the bowl season's marquee matchups. According to the report, San Antonio police claim Boykin was arrested after hitting a patrol officer following a fight at Pat O'Brien's — a New Orleans-themed night club on Alamo Plaza.
The San Antonio NBC affiliate reports that Boykin's actions began when people at the bar recognized the TCU quarterback. An errant punch from Boykin, reportedly, missed its intended target and struck a bar employee. Police apparently tried to break up the fight, at which point a still-swinging Boykin hit an officer. Officers threatened to tase Boykin before he finally subsided.
The NBC affiliate in Dallas-Fort Worth specifically reports that the patrons inside the bar did not just recognized Boykin, but "started talking trash." According to that NBC 5 report, Boykin was taken to the ground by multiple officers.
He has been charged with public intoxication, resisting arrest and assaulting a public official.

Not any good at reading the blitz.... But can really run... I guess when he’s not drunk.
Aw, jeez...
Yeah.... I was hoping TCU would put it on Oregon....

My money says he will be starting the game.
Definitely not his best career move.....
The “C” in the school initials is for Christian. Too sad.
Innocent until proven guilty? I don’t know....
Yeah, the editorials kinda write themselves over this kind of stuff... I better not comment...
Yeah... I know.
On a brighter note.... we’re gonna win number 8 this year. BOOMER...
Shame on you!

I’m glad I didn’t name my son Trevone (Treyvon, etc.)...it seems to be a cursed name.
Yep.... he would be better off changing it to Skdfwoeinvlsd
Stupidity and arrogance go together like grits and butter.
That would make a good tag line... !
