TCU was light on details Monday about the condition of starting quarterback Tye Gunn.
The Fort Worth Star-Telegram is reporting Gunn's status remains questionable for Saturday's game against the Lobos in Fort Worth, meaning backup Jeff Ballard could get the first start of his career.
Gunn, a senior who had earned quite a bit of pub for his role helping TCU earn wins over then-No. 5 Oklahoma and Utah, injured his right shoulder late in the third quarter against BYU.
Ballard, who had only seen a few snaps in two other games, calmly led the Horned Frogs to a 51-50 overtime win. He went 8-of-12 passing for 150 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. His longest pass was for 35 yards and he managed to avoid getting sacked. Ballard's touchdowns were TCU's only passing scores against the Cougars.
