TCU is getting a huge addition to their program as multiple sources have told HornedFrogBlitz on Tuesday afternoon that former LSU linebacker Marcel Brooks is headed to the Big 12 program.

Brooks entered the NCAA transfer portal on June 26 and TCU immediately became the favorite as the athletic defender said he wanted to play closer to home. Sources told HFB that Brooks is on campus today (Tuesday) and will be able to start working out with the team as soon as he passes a physical.

I think this was expected. He was pretty close to Patterson and TCU before he committed to and signed with LSU. He's back home now and I wish him the best. Sucks he left LSU, but in today's environment, I can't blame him for wanting to go back home. Dude played his arse off for LSU and was a big part in our defense getting back on track and up to championship level last year. I'll always be grateful for his play. Best of luck Marcel!

He helped win a NC at LSU and has 3 rings to show Fort Worth/TCU. Good for recruiting. He’s moving home to play for Gary Patterson at a great university. You will be missed young man! Thank you for your contributions!

Best of luck Marcel. Would’ve loved to see you stay but you need to do what’s best for yourself and your family. TCU is getting a good one, he was just scratching the surface here of what he can be. Thanks for your hard work and thanks for being a Tiger

You honestly believe with this much gif as LSU has that that defense is going to drop off ? okay I guess everybody is entitled to their opinion

I think this shows the family issue (sickness) was real and now he will be close to home. I wish him luck and glad we don't have to face him in the SEC!

I haven't been this disappointed since I got sucked into the hype train of Phelon Jones. Wish the best but wish he could have found it here.

So was this a “be close to family” thing or an “I have no place in this 4-3” thing”?

Will he have to sit a year ? I guess everyone will sit a year for this year.

saint tiger225•45 months

Who knows with the NCAA. They allowed JT Daniel to transfer from USC to UGA and play immediately after some BS reason he gave. Everyone knows he transferred bc he got beat out.

GeauxsomeMeaux•45 months

Why was JT Daniels Allowed to play?

cwill•45 months

It's ridiculous that a kid has to sit out a year.

Vernonbrew22•45 months

TCU gonna be a force with all the recent pick-ups (including number 1 RB from Northshore). That said, still no match for the LSU Tigers. We still coming

JakeFromStateFarm•45 months

Yeah they might be able to improve from 5-7 and actually go .500 with those two.

brewdrees•45 months

They couldn't beat LSU backups

AndrewD•45 months

Get real, TCU didn't even make it into December last year. 5-7

reauxl tigers•45 months

I just don’t understand why he can’t last just 2 more years away from home until he’s god knows where in the NFL.
