I committed to OU but went to Texas Tech because I was homeless. Tech started Spring semester a week earlier than OU. My struggle was a blessing. #truestory💯 #TBT

- Coach Leach got me to switch comittments from OU to Texas Tech in a simple conversation, “Do you want to catch a lot of footballs and score a lot of touchdowns?” We maintained a friendship throughout the years and would often times talk offense. His legacy will forever live on!
- I am so thankful for where I am at in life. This game has provided me with a Bachelors and Masters Degree, opportunity to see the world and provide for my family. Also served as my ticket out of the Projects. I will be forever thankful, appreciative and educated.🏈❤️👨🏾🎓 #WreckEm
- To say that time flies would be an understatement. Got to watch my son compete in his first football camp today, and man… what a moment. Seeing him out there grinding, learning, and loving the game it brought it all full circle. Proud dad and coach moment. 🏈💙 @TexasTechFB
- My son has been waiting a decade to touch the Double T turf! 🏴☠️ At age 3, he was on the sidelines watching us grind, sipping Muscle Milk while getting babysat by the trainers. Now he’s out here competing on the same field full circle moment! Proud Dad. Proud Coach. @TexasTechFB
00:00 - I was raised to treat the janitor with the same respect as the CEO💯
- It's official! I'm proud to be the Offensive Coordinator at Burkburnett
- Coach’s coach. Player’s coach. The real deal. Every time I see @JoeyMcGuireTTU in action, I’m reminded why I’m proud to be a Red Raider. He welcomes HS athletes, coaches, and families with open arms gives them a real shot to compete and grow. Nothing but respect. @TexasTechFB
- This needs to be in EVERY locker room, classroom, and hallway of every middle and high school in the WORLD... not just the city...but the WORLD!
- Shout out to @CoachCochranTTU from @TexasTechFB for stopping by Estacado to recruit our athletes! We appreciate you taking the time to visit. I might be a little biased, but… Wreck ‘Em! 🔴⚫ #MatadorPride
- Just ran into a legend. I had the pleasure of playing with one of the best offensive linemen in Texas Tech history. This guy meant business, and to know him is to respect him. Brandon “BC” Carter is a dude! @TexasTechFB #Wreck’Em #TexasTech🌵🤠
