Jeremy Kerley Wins Play of the Day

TCU’s Jeremy Kerley won the top play of the day at ESPN for Saturday, October 17, 2009.

His 60-plus yard punt return for a touchdown was full of cut backs, stiff arms and quick misses.  ESPN counted at least 7 players that missed Kerley on the return.  The return was one of many highlights for the Horned Frogs on their way to a 44-6 win against Colorado State.

TCU vs. Colorado State

TCU had failed to have a punt return for several years until Kerley returned one against SMU two weeks ago sparking a flat Horned Frog team to win that game.

Kerley is a multi dimensional weapon best known for his use in the “wildfrog” package that shredded the BYU defense last year.  He is a special teams specialist and wide receiver for the Frogs who played quarterback in high school.

Congratulations to the Frogs and Kerley on the award and the exposure.

    That return was one of the most exciting I have seen in a while. He was running side to side allmost as much as towards the end zone.

    Yep. I would have loved to seen it live! I saw it on the ESPN highlights, and when they were doing their top 10 plays of the day, I thought that punt return should be in the top ten. As it got closer to number one and I didn’t see it, I began to get a little mad. But, when they revealed at as number one, I was extremely excited for Jeremy and TCU. It’s great exposure!!
