Garlon Green led the Horned Frogs with 21 points, but Oregon State posted a blistering offensive performance while handing TCU a 101-81 loss Monday in the quarterfinal round of the 2012 College Basketball Invitational at the Beavers' Gill Coliseum.

The setback put an end to TCU's 2011-12 season, as the Frogs finished with an 18-15 overall record. The campaign marked the first winning season for the program since 2004-05, while the squad finished with four more victories than in any season since that year.

Green recorded one of the top offensive nights of his career in the loss, recording his third 20-point performance as a Frog. He made 7-of-12 field-goal attempts, including a pair of 3-pointers, and 5-of-6 free throws while pulling down six rebounds.

Also reaching double figures for TCU were Kyan Anderson (16 points), J.R. Cadot (15 points) and Hank Thorns (11 points). Cadot recorded a team-high eight rebounds, including five on the offensive end. Anderson recorded five steals, which equaled the most in a game this season for a Frog.

Key Rules to Remember


1. Only TCU coaches and athletic department staff members are permitted to be involved in the recruiting process.
  • Alumni, friends and other representatives of athletics interest who are not employed by the University are not permitted to contact a prospective student-athlete (or members of his/her family) via letter, telephone or in-person (on or off-campus) for the purpose of soliciting their participation in our athletics program. For recruiting purposes, TCU faculty members are permitted to engage in in-person contact with prospects, but only on the University campus.


2. A prospective student-athlete remains a prospect even after he/she signs a National Letter of intent or financial aid agreement to attend the University.
  • The prospect does not lose his/her prospect status until the start of classes at TCU or the beginning of official team practice, whichever occurs first.


3. Do not do anything for a prospective student-athlete or a current student-athlete without specific authorization from the TCU Athletics Department.

4. The prohibition of contact with a prospective student-athlete is not intended to relate to unavoidable incidental contacts with prospects by representatives of athletics interests.
  • It is understood that a representative of athletics interests may from time to time have contact with a prospective student-athlete and/or their family members. Such contact is permissible so long as it involves normal civility. For instance, if you meet a prospective student-athlete during your normal course of business or social activity, there is no violation so long as you do not discuss TCU athletics. If you are attending an alumni event or athletics event and you find yourself speaking with the parents of a prospect, do not discuss the athletics program and excuse yourself from the discussion in an appropriate manner.


5. If a student-athlete accepts any extra-benefits based on his/her status as an athlete or because of athletics ability, the student-athlete will lose all eligibility for participation in intercollegiate athletics.

6. Representatives of athletics interests are reminded that the NCAA rules regarding student-athletes remain in effect throughout the entire calendar year, including the summer vacation period.

REMEMBER TO ASK BEFORE YOU ACT!
