Great article in the ST today by Mike O'Brian. It appears that the speculation about JT and the package deal here was for real! Brady's father says that he has ten colleges ready to take them both, but that he would like Brady to wait until '28. Think we would take JT in '27 then Brady the next year.

Unless he plans to be a 5 year year college guy, Brady would be wise to reclass to 27.

Not gonna fault the kid for waiting until 2028. Boswell got terrible advice enrolling as a 17 year old. Had he not enrolled early, he'd have a huge NIL THIS year.......AND NEXT.

I think Brady is a different caliber player, plus he turns 18 in June.

Haha! Other than Ethan, no one played more than 22 minutes, and 10 guys played 14 or more.
The boys were going hard, but not for long stretches.
It will be very interesting to see how much that tightens in Lubbock and beyond.

Absolutely. I've watched 25 games this week and exhibitions. Texas Tech isn't as good as past years shooting it. Still, on the road. Big man is special, he sure looks bigger than 6.10ft., sitting by Mirk.
