Nov 26, 2023
Impressive stretch to end season
Hoover completed 32 of 58 passes for 344 yards, four touchdowns and one interception during Friday's 69-45 loss against Oklahoma. He also had three rushes for zero yards with one touchdown.
ANALYSIS
Hoover posted his fourth straight game with at least 300 yards passing and matched a career-high with four touchdown passes. Those are impressive accomplishments for a red-shirt freshman making his first significant starts at the college level. TCU's offense started clicking at the end of the year, however, their defense couldn't stop anyone. It will be interesting to see if TCU goes back to Chandler Morris or rolls with Hoover next season.

Big performance in win over Bears
Hoover was 24-for-29 passing for 412 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 42-17 victory over Baylor. He also had three rushes for 22 yards with one touchdown.
ANALYSIS
Hoover has thrown for over 300 passing yards in four of his last five games. He's been a suitable replacement for Chandler Morris who did see limited action in the blowout of the Bears. Hoover has played well enough to deserve a start at Oklahoma in the regular season finale. The Horned Frogs will be playing for bowl eligibility in that game.

Leads late charge against Longhorns
Hoover was 24-for-36 passing for 302 yards, two touchdowns and one interception during Saturday's 29-26 loss versus Texas.
ANALYSIS
Hoover received another start as Chandler Morris is continuing to work back from a knee injury. The redshirt freshman has had some success through the air with over 300 yards passing in three of his last four games. The problem has been the TD:INT ratio at 7:6 over those four games. That's to be expected from a young signal caller who has played in just eight games in his career. TCU will host Baylor next week.

Named starter vs Texas
TCU coach Sonny Dykes indicated Tuesday that Hoover will remain the starter for Saturday's match against Texas, Steven Johnson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
ANALYSIS
With starting quarterback Chandler Morris continuing to work his way back from injury, Hoover will get the start against the Longhorns. The redshirt freshman signal caller finished last week's game with 32 of 52 passes completed for 353 yards to go along one touchdown and two interceptions.

Costly turnovers in loss
Hoover was 32-for-52 passing for 353 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Thursday's 35-28 loss to Texas Tech.
ANALYSIS
Hoover made his third consecutive start for an injured Chandler Morris and threw a pair of critical interceptions which led to the Horned Frogs losing. Hoover has had at least one interception in his last four games. Making matters worse, he has just one touchdown pass in their last two games. TCU will play Texas next week.

Notches start vs Texas Tech
Hoover got the nod at starting quarterback in place of the injured Chandler Morris on Thursday night, Steven Johnson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
ANALYSIS
Hoover, a redshirt freshman, has seen his playing time skyrocket over the last few weeks as TCU deals with an injured starting quarterback. He'll start for the third consecutive week as the Horned Frogs face Texas Tech.

Struggles at Kansas State
Hoover completed 23 of 43 passes for 187 yards and one interception during Saturday's 41-3 defeat to Kansas State.
ANALYSIS
Hoover was not able to follow up his impressive outing against BYU as the Wildcats stifled the young signal caller. He'll have a week off to learn from the poor performance before playing at Texas Tech on Nov. 2.
Oct 15, 2023
400-yard passing game in debut
Hoover was 37-for-58 passing for 439 yards, four touchdowns and two interceptions during Saturday's 44-11 win over Brigham Young. He also had one rush for 26 yards.
ANALYSIS
Hoover was fantastic in his starting debut with 439 passing yards and four touchdowns. Chandler Morris (knee) is expected to be out for at least a month, so Hoover's stat line should put him on the radar for prospective fantasy teams. He did throw a couple of interceptions, but one of them was a tipped pass and the other was a great defensive play by BYU. Hoover will go up against a better defense at Kansas State next week.

Starting quarterback for Week 7
Hoover will be TCU's starting quarterback Saturday against BYU, Steven Johnson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
ANALYSIS
Chandler Morris suffered a knee injury during TCU's previous game, resulting in an indefinite absence beginning from Saturday against BYU. Needing a new quarterback to fill in temporarily, the Horned Frogs are relying on Hoover. He completed 11 of 19 passes for 119 passing yards and a 1:1 TD:INT ratio in Morris' place at Iowa State.

Forced into play after injury
Hoover completed 11 of 19 passes for 119 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Saturday's 27-14 defeat against Iowa State.
ANALYSIS
Hoover was forced into action after Chandler Morris sustained an injury with just under 11 minutes in the third quarter. The redshirt freshman struggled while completing just 57.9 percent of his passes and throwing an interception. Stay tuned to see if Hoover will need to make the start against BYU next week.

Two turnovers in blowout win
Hoover completed 2 of 3 passes for 50 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Saturday's 41-6 victory over Nicholls State. He also recorded a lost fumble.
ANALYSIS
Hoover received his first significant action as the Horned Frogs were up big on Nicholls early. He took his lumps with two turnovers, but also was able to record his first collegiate touchdown. He's not expected to get back on the field at Houston next week.
