As the TCU Horned Frogs continue to round out their coaching staff, a former star running back has been promoted at his former program. Aaron Green, who starred at TCU with more than 2,400 yards and 20 scores, has been promoted to assistant running backs coach under new offensive coordinator Gordon Sammis.
Green served as TCU’s assistant director of player personnel in 2025 and gained his first coaching experience as an offensive analyst at UTSA. A San Antonio native, Green rushed for 1,272 yards, seventh-most in a season, and helped lead the Horned Frogs to an 11-2 record in the 2015 season. One of his most memorable highlights came in Lubbock, when Green caught a touchdown pass from quarterback Trevor Boykin and the Horned Frogs beat Texas Tech 55-52 in a shootout. Green also had an 86-yard touchdown run in KSU’s 52-45 win.

Green went undrafted in 2016 and had a brief career with the AAF’s Los Angeles Rams (2016), Dallas Cowboys (2017), Buffalo Bills (2017-18) and San Antonio Commanders (2019). Green joins assistant cornerbacks coach Julius Lewis as the second former TCU player to coach for the Horned Frogs.
