Will there be a @road_raiders event in Boulder next week or any Tech fans setting a up tailgate we could crash?
Bo Knows!
Bo Jackson won the state decathlon title in high school doing only 8 events!
Was afraid of the pole vault and hated the mile run, so just got enough points in the other events to beat everyone else.
No one comes close to him as an athlete. Imagine Derek Henry or Aaron Donald playing MLB and hitting home runs and throwing runners out at home from Right Center.
Where on the fb field are you? Considering the lack of rain this yr I’m prouder than usual about how this looks. How do we compete for best grass field in the state?@coachkevinrich @JaimeBoswell2 @gym_picker @thirdhubert @WadeCallaway

I can't stand Texas Tech... but that started way before Sorsby 🤣. But I think I am on Tech's side with this situation. Why? Sorsby is the Villian here and Cincinnati is the enabler. UC knew about the gambling in 2024 and didn't report it to the NCAA. Read the court docs if you haven't. There is also no evidence that says TTU or IU knew anything about the gambling until March when the world found out. At that point he was already at Tech.
Now, should they play him? No. The game is bigger than one, above average but not quite elite QB that they'll have for only one year. Will they play him? Yes. Can I blame them? No.
Why is it their responsibilty to not play him, regardless of if it is the right thing to do for the collective sport or not, when the courts have said he cannot be impeded from playing until the temporary injunction is over in February? In case no one has been paying attention, amatuerism is over in college athletics. It's been over for years. Especially since 2021 when NIL started. Every college has been essentially forced to become extremely selfish if they ever want to win, and that is what Texas Tech is trying to do.
So who is the villian behind the villian? Who is the real enemy? The NCAA. They have refused to update their governance since NIL (which they also screwed up mind you) which is why they continue to lose court case after court case. They are still trying to enforce an amatuer model in a NIL world. They can't have their cake and eat it too. That is the message the judicial system has been send to them for years. College and Pro-levels are basically the same now, except for one MAJOR issue... Pros have structured rules through collective bargaining (which is exactly what college athletics needs), and Pro Organizations have shields that the NCAA does not have. The NCAA has to change their governance soon or they will become obsolete and left in the dust. Also, the "Protect College Sports Act" is not going to do it, in case anyone is wondering.
So, it's easy to be mad at Texas Tech right now. But ask yourself; Big picture, where should our anger really be directed?

*Traces Of Texas Tech*
In the endless saga of Texas Tech vs. Texas, there are great photos… and then there are moments carved into stone. This one belongs in the latter category. Bryson Williams rises, releases, and buries a three‑pointer directly in front of Chris Beard and the Longhorn bench — a single snapshot that captures betrayal, revenge, and rivalry in one perfect frame. Bryson’s shot doesn’t just go in. It detonates the run that engulfs Texas.
Behind him, Beard stands hollow‑eyed, and puzzled. The supporting cast makes it even richer: Avery Benson, the former Red Raider who followed Beard to Austin, and Brock Cunningham, the walking embodiment of Tech’s collective annoyance. Every character in this rivalry drama is right there in the shot.
This was Beard’s one and only return to Lubbock as Texas’ head coach — a night built on months of tension. Beard, once the hero who transformed Tech from Big 12 obscurity to the brink of a national title, had everything he wanted in Lubbock: money, facilities, even a giant bobblehead.
Then came the Plainview McDonald’s meeting with Chris Del Conte—and Beard bolted, gave his staff 45 minutes to get on board. Mark Adams didn't get on the plane (although maybe he should have)
Beard expected gratitude when he came back. Instead, he walked into a wall of noise, tried to high‑five students who wanted nothing to do with him, and retreated to the visiting bench.
Texas Tech dominated from start to finish. And looking back, with Adams later proving to be an ineffective head coach, it’s even more remarkable that this group of players united themselves — not for a coach, but for each other, for the moment, and for every single person in Red Raider Nation.

New report shows that compared to other states, Arkansas woefully underfunds its public schools, which serve 95% of students, while wasting more than $300M a year on voucher subsidies that benefit fewer than 50,000 families.
