Luka Doncic, famous TCU alums celebrate the Horned Frogs in National Championship
If there was ever a bat signal — or Horned Frog signal — the College Football Playoff National Championship would be it.
The huge stage for TCU has attracted famous alumnus and fans to SoFi Stadium to watch the Frogs take on the defending champion Georgia Bulldogs.
Matt Carpenter, Reid Ryan, and Fort Worth Mayor Mattie Parker were among the throng of famous TCU alums or fans who posted messages on social media.
Even Dallas Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic cheered on TCU in a Twitter post showing him holding a horned frog.
“Me and Luka Jr. want to say ‘Give ‘em hell, TCU,” Doncic says in the video.
