Two Texas Tech commits honored by Touchdown Club of Houston
Wednesday night, the Touchdown Club of Houston held a kickoff dinner and reception to recognize players selected to its 2016 Preseason Kickoff Team.
Last year, Texas Tech offensive lineman signees Travis Bruffy and Gio Pancotti were honored as part of this kickoff dinner. In 2014, linebacker D'Vonta Hinton and wide receiver Jonathan Giles were similarly recognized.

Beck, a 5.7 three-star prospect ranked as the No. 32 safety in the nation, chose the Red Raiders over offers from Baylor, Mississippi State, Colorado, Houston and several others.
