We caught up with Lubbock (TX) Trinity Christian athlete Marcus Ramon-Edwards as part of our signee Q&A series for the class of 2023. We asked him a few questions as he prepares to make the transition from a Trinity Christian Lion to a Texas Tech Red Raider.

"Honestly my favorite part was not being highly recruited! It showed me that God is real and that his timing is better than mine!"
What was the craziest thing any coach said to you in your recruitment?
"The craziest thing I was ever told was when a coach mixed me up with someone else and didn't know until I told him."
