HORNED FROG PRIORITY POINTS SYSTEMWith the 2010-11 fiscal year recently closing, a lot of people have asked me about their new ranking in our Horned Frog Priority Points System. The calculations for everyone's updated ranking will be completed around July 15. Everyone should be able to access their new ranking on Aug. 1.
MEETING TIME
We just completed two days of staff meetings with our Management Team in athletics. All our associate athletics directors and department heads, the leaders in our program, convened in the Kelly Center as we reviewed the past year and looked ahead to the future. It was very productive. We have a great team in place. You can take pride in knowing we have the best in the business in all of our administrative and support areas. These folks work extremely hard for TCU in serving our student-athletes, coaches and you.
WELCOME HOME
It's been great having LaDainian Tomlinson roaming the hallways this week and being back on campus for his annual summer camp. It was also nice to visit with many of you at yesterday's event at the Omni with LT taking part in our Speakers Series.
GET THE QUESTIONS READY
Several of you have inquired when our next online chat on GoFrogs.com will be. Due to vacation schedules, we'll have to wait until Monday, July 18, at 2 p.m. Please mark your calendar for that. These chats have been a lot of fun for me, and I hope very helpful in keeping you in the loop on what's happening in our athletics program.
ADVENTURES OF SUPERFROG
There's nothing like seeing your mascot rappelling down a 26-story downtown building. The latest summer adventures for SuperFrog saw him taking part in Fort Worth's inaugural urban rappelling last Friday morning. SuperFrog joined the likes of Fort Worth Mayor Mike Moncrief and other local dignitaries in this great event.

COMPLIANCE CORNER
You are a "Representative of Athletics Interests" commonly referred to as a booster if you have ever:
(a.) Been a member of a sport support group or booster club;
(b.) Made a donation to TCU's athletic department;
(c.) Arranged for or provided employment for enrolled student-athletes, or assisted in providing any benefit to enrolled student-athletes or their families;
(d.) Promoted TCU athletics programs in any way.
When fans of TCU athletics donate to booster groups (e.g., Frog Club, Fastbreak Club, Spike Club), aid in the recruiting process, or financially support the TCU athletics program they become boosters and are bound by all applicable NCAA rules. Specifically, boosters may not be involved in recruiting or providing benefits to prospects, student-athletes other than their children and the relatives of other student-athletes.
KEEP IN TOUCH
Please let us know if you ever have any questions or concerns regarding our program. This is also your program and we value your feedback. We welcome all calls and emails.
Go Frogs!
Christopher M. Del Conte
Director of Intercollegiate Athletics
