2021 WR Jerand Bradley enjoys visit to Texas Tech
With the dead period over a week before fall camp starts, colleges around the country are allowed to host visitors until August 1. Texas Tech elected not to do a big barbecue event or camp like many other schools, however they did bring in a select few top targets for the future. John Paul II wide receiver Jerand Bradley was one of them, and the 3-star 2021 prospect enjoyed his first time on the South Plains.

I was on campus with my mother, dad, and brother."
