How Texas Tech got involved: "Yeah so I went there in October, like you said. I was talking to the GM, (James) Blanchard. He's a great guy. And then in January when the coaches could stop by, both McGuire's, coach (Clay) McGuire and the head coach (Joey) McGuire stopped by, saw me, I got both of their numbers. We communicated on a good basis and just built a great relationship from there in January, and then we've been staying in touch throughout, just keeping each other updated.
They invited me out to spring ball but I couldn't make it. And then I got the offer, and I set up the official visit for June. I'm really excited to get out there. The recruiting process with them has been great. They've been keeping in touch and keeping me updated, and really showing the love from Tech."
