Texas Tech football hosted a select group of talented underclassmen recruits to take in the Red Raiders' second scrimmage of spring football.
RedRaiderSports caught up with some of those prospects for their reactions to the visit.
How was the visit? Did anything stand out?
“It was great. I loved the intensity that they practiced with.”
Was it mostly the same as your previous visits or did you get to see anything new?
“It was similar to the last couple visits but watching practice was a new experience.”
How was catching up with the coaches?
“Catching up with coach (Kirk) Bryant, (Joey) McGuire and (Zach) Kittley is something I always look forward to. I’ve built up a close relationship with them over the last year and a half or so, so getting to meet up with them face to face is a priority for my family and I.”
What's next for you this off-season? Any other visit plans or events coming up?
“Nothing scheduled quite yet. Off-season will be filled with 7-on-7, camps and visits.”
