"Briles, a longtime offensive coordinator, has been at TCU since 2023, following stints at Arkansas, Florida State, Houston, FAU and Baylor. The 2015 Broyles Award finalist mentored TCU quarterback Josh Hoover, who set a school record last year with 3,949 yards passing with 27 touchdowns and 11 interceptions as the Horned Frogs ranked eighth nationally in passing offense at 312.9 yards a game."
"This season, Hoover threw for 3,472 yards and 29 TDs to 13 interceptions as TCU averaged 30.8 points per game, 44th nationally, and finished 8-4 with an upcoming Alamo Bowl berth against USC. Briles would replace South Carolina OC Mike Shula, who was fired nine games into the season after the Gamecocks scored 14 or fewer points four times during a 3-6 start. Wide receivers coach/passing game coordinator Mike Furrey called plays for the remainder of the season."
