Texas Tech official visit highlights: "I really enjoyed it, especially being around the staff and all the players too. Rabbit (Dadrion Taylor) was my host. It was great.
We actually toured around the facilities more and also saw more of Lubbock, what there is to do around the city. We also went to coach (Joey) McGuire's house which was really cool. We just chilled and we ate good food. Snow cones and all that, we were outside, he had a basketball court and a pool, some other stuff. It was fun."
