Coach Gary Patterson acknowledged the departure of Delton during his weekly news conference Tuesday. The transfer from Kansas State was named a team captain at the beginning of the season and started the first two games for the Horned Frogs. Patterson said Delton obviously wanted to play more. Freshman Max Duggan has started the past six games. Duggan is dealing with an injured middle finger on his throwing hand sustained in Saturday’s 34-27 loss at Oklahoma State. Michael Collins came in for Duggan and took a hard shot to the midsection on TCU’s last offensive play. Patterson said he thinks Duggan will play Saturday against No. 11 Baylor, but that Collins probably won’t for the Frogs (4-4). In his career at Hays High, Delton was a two-year starter at quarterback for the Indians, completing more than 55 percent of his passes for 1,978 yards, 26 touchdowns and nine interceptions. He also rushed for 1,369 yards and 21 touchdowns. — Hays Post contributed to this report
