If you follow the twitter link, towards the bottom of the page it now lists Sam Eguavoen on Tech's roster. He's an OLB for Garland Lakeview Centennial High. His offer list doesn't look so great but I guess that doesn't always mean anything (aka Welker). Guns up Sam!

Good catch from RR.com. I've been wondering what stations this was going to be broadcast on. Looks like pretty decent Texas coverage for the first go-round.

"Ultimately, Tech still lags behind division stalwarts Texas and Oklahoma, but I'm a bit puzzled as to all this buzz about Texas A&M being the new "hot" team in the South. Last I checked, Mike Sherman was still the coach of the Aggies. Thanks, but I'll put my money on Tuberville."

Torn Achilles tendon. OUCH!!!!

That was fast!!! Looks like we at least already have one of the guys replaced.

"Coach Tuberville just told the media that redshift freshman linebacker Brandon Mahoney and safety Yashua Williams have left the team. Both Mahoney and Williams are still in school but will not be associated with football going forward, "they both decided to hang it up".

According to Chris Level, Brandon Sharpe was released from the Saints and picked up by the Cowboys. Sharpe, Williams, and Wall are now the Texas Tech Trio for the Cowboys. Hopefully they can all see playing time and it would be even more awesome if they made the field at the same time. WRECKEM!!!

Pretty good write-up on Batch. Part 1 of a two part story. I didn't realize that Batch had surgery two months ago for a hernia.

...to be on the NCAA Board of Directors. I wonder if they'll get tired of hearing "Let me double check and see what Pony thinks."

Quick article explains how we might save in travel expenses if we do go with the Pac-10. We'd have travel partner (ie another school) to travel with and split costs. Our potential buddy? Colorado.

Here a video of last year's game against Osceola where Javares had a pretty good game. Warning: annoying announcer in the video!

Also, USA Today has Ben McRoy listed as the second fastest time in the nation in the 200 m.

Okay, it's not the 6-6, face paint wearing, OL we all know and love, but I thought it was funny that we have apparently offered a receiver from Euless Trinity whose name happens to be Brandon Carter as well. The entry is towards the bottom of the article.

Nothing too earth shattering here, but since all other football news is slow...

New school in the mix for ESPNU 150 DL J.R. Ferguson

"Tonight, we're going to sit down and sort out all the categories we've determined are priorities for him. We're going to get things eliminated and organized tonight. The goal is to come into Wednesday in deciding on where he wants to go. It's the most grueling process, and he still has no clue."

It's a long shot, but maybe Tubs is on to something here!

No surprise, another Auburn guy. This might have been covered in the comments somewhere else, but I didn't see it under Bennie's leaving Fanshot or a couple of the other posts I looked under. If this is a re-post, please feel free to delete.

One thing is for sure, this guy has his work cut out for him.

Just ran across this while browsing for news the other day. It's a thread with TONS of old Tech football pics that range from the 30's - all the way to current. There's currently 58 pages so it's not just a quick browse. I really enjoyed some of the old pics of the stadium on page 21 (you can see the old mini-golf course across from the stadium).

However, be warned that there are a couple of pics that are NSFW (not safe for work). While nothing is completely shown, they might not be the best thing to have up on your screen when your boss walks up. I had to skip a page or two and haven't been all the way through the pages, so you've been warned. I really wish they could have just stuck with great Tech football pics...

This guys completely nails it on the head. The final segment is what really wraps up the thing that has me so saddened. We've lost the one thing that made us different.

"This was about injured egos, and more than anything else, ignorance. Because while the backlash toward Leach is maybe understandable, the Texas Tech administration made the bigger mistake of misunderstanding Leach's success. It wasn't that they had a coach who'd produced ten winning seasons, but that they had Mike Leach. He didn't deliver Texas Tech to national prominence despite his strange style, but because of it.

Texas Tech stumbled onto a winning lottery ticket with Mike Leach. Now, they've chased him off because he wanted to get rich too. And yeah, I'm sure the Texas Tech administration thinks that their football team can win without him. But will anybody watch?"

I didn't see this posted anywhere else in my search so please forgive me if it's a double-post. Article is from Tim Griffin so take it for what it's worth.
