Welcome to this week's edition of The Recruiting Six-Pack. The Texas Tech Red Raiders (4-5, 3-3) are on a roll right now. First, they are coming off a 35-28 victory over TCU last Thursday night and will now get ready for a road trip to Lawrence, Kansas, on Saturday against the #16 Jayhawks (7-2, 4-2). This past Saturday the staff also received a commitment from 2025 four-star dual-threat quarterback Lloyd Jones III from Hitchcock, Texas. He becomes the third commit in the Red Raiders 2025 class. With that said, let's look at what else is happening with Texas Tech recruiting.
