From @Nick Harris

SFA is my second school and we went to their game Saturday. Entertaining back and forth game. So SFA has the ball last down 44-41 inside the 20 with 15 seconds left and a Time out. . They throw a little screen pass to a RB who jumps towards the pylon but is ruled short inside the 1 and time runs out. They review the play and confirm he was short but put 1 second left. SFA uses the TO and goes for the win. The try a jump pass that was doomed from the start. Pass incomplete and lose the game. They had their stud WR Gibson in the backfield and not part of the play at all. I would think they would have tossed it to him and let him outrun the D to the corner of the endzone.

Would you kick FG and go into OT or is going the win the right call?

Some RRS posters: "Tyler Shough looked awful. That pick 6 was horrible. Honestly, he's never really impressed me much. The coaches obviously think he's the best though....what does that say about Morton and Smith?"

McGuire ball lickers: "You obviously don't know anything about football. If you draw any conclusions from a scrimmage then I don't know what to tell you. Tyler was actually the best player on the field. His pick 6 was a thing of beauty in terms of making the right read."


My only point is that there was plenty of condescending commenters that look foolish right now. I doubt that will stop any of them from being football know-it-alls going forward.

Edit: I should add that I love McGuire. I just don't assume he is perfect.

So they’ve been holding Midland Directv users hostage for the past week by not letting directtv broadcast Fox in the area.

Went to LBK this last weekend and I see the same thing in her directv except it’s for ABC

Anyone know what’s going on here? Just a rate negotiation or what? Usually with Directv, these only last a day or so but this one seems to be going on for a while.

I’m not sure but I want to believe Dish Network had this same fight with local Fox not to long ago in this area and it lasted several months.

On the way to commercial, Van Pelt just teased Mahomes being in the house on Saturday and our QB’s not properly responding. Appears the entire QB room is about to land on this week’s Bad Beats.

Have to find a silver lining

I’m thinking Wes, but I’m open for discussion.

What say you?

Just got back from the Spring game. I wasn't really looking for much or watching too intently, just taking in some football on a great LBK day!

Certified ballers:

Rayshad Williams
Tahj Brooks
Myles Price
Krishon Merriweather

"Dang, who is that?"

RB #25 Blake Bedwell - Juked, jived, and darted, all over the field today. Ran inside. Could bounce outside. Did it against the 1s and the 2s and everyone.

DB #18 Tyler Owens - Put the wood on Bedwell once. I immediately had to go look to see who it was. Looks the part!

WR #86 Jordan Brown - Made some great catches. Fast. An energetic/excited player.

WR #13 Brady Boyd - Hands like glue. Made a catch on the sideline that made me say, "Dang, who is that?"

WR #20 Nehemiah Martinez - 40yd TD where he ran THROUGH 2 defenders. Good hands. Finds the open spot. Fiery. Mouthed off to Tyler Owens after his TD and made Owens react unfavorably....which I think it's funny when you punk your teammate and let him know about it.

LB #48 Derrick Lewis - Had a tip-drill INT of Tyler Shough. Gave Shough a stiff-arm to the face in his run back. I laughed.

At QB:

You knew when Behren Morton was in (Good)

You knew when Tyler Shough was in (BAD)

Donovan Smith was more-or-less forgettable.

Pros:
-Crowd
-Equipment sale (Got there early, got what I wanted)
-Lots of "who's who" of former Tech players on the sideline which was cool to see.
-Weather

Cons:
MUSIC SELECTION

Comment below with questions or if you attended and wanted to add your own thoughts/players of the game!

Another weekend of Big 12 football has passed and I power-ranked each team in the conference. Let me know what you think...do you agree? What changes would you make?

**Reminder that FCS games and garbage-time possessions are not included in these numbers***

Offensive Points Per Drive:

Texas Tech - 2.18 points per offensive possession. 70th in the country. At this point in the season, it's fair to call our offense what it is -- a below-average P5 unit, at best.
(conf only) - 2.47 points per drive. 7th in the conference.

TCU - 3.47 points per offensive possession. 9th in the country.
(conf only) - 3.44 points per drive. Best in the conference.

Back to back weeks, Tech's defense will be facing one of the best offenses in the country.

Offensive TD Percentage:

Texas Tech - 26.4% of possessions end with a TD play. 75th in the country.
(conf only) - 29.5% of conference possessions result in TDs. 7th in the conference.

TCU - 45.7% of possessions end with a TD play. 8th in the country. If they wouldn't have piddled around v. Colorado for a half with Chandler Morris at QB... they are top 3 in the country in this category.
(conf only) - 44.3% of drives have been TDs. Best in the conference.


Offensive Turnover Percentage:

Texas Tech - 17.6% of possessions end with a turnover. 125th in the country.
(conf only) - 16.4% of possessions end with a turnover. Last in the conference.

TCU - 3.7% of possessions end with a turnover. 3rd in the country.
(conf only) - 4.9% of conf possessions are turned over. Best in the conference.


Offensive Yards Per Play:

Texas Tech - 5.12 yards per play. 98th in the country.

TCU - 7.59 yards per play. 3rd in the country.

If you took the names off the numbers, I'm taking every offense in the Big 12 except Iowa State over Tech's. That's not good. This offense is still tracking towards being one of the least productive we've seen around here in a long time. The 2020 David Yost Debacle will be tough to beat, but it's certainly possible.

That said, of our remaining 4 games, Tech will face 3 of the weaker defenses in the Big 12. They can still salvage this thing. But guys are going to have to start playing a lot better. The OL gets a lot of the blame, but it's everyone that has to play better, with the possible exception of the RB room (those guys run hard and break tackles -- they just may not have crazy high-end speed).

The numbers for TCU's offense are staggering to say the least. They are averaging more yards per play, scoring TDs more frequently, and turning it over less than Tech's 2016 offense. And they will be playing at home against a Tech defense that absorbed some body blows last Saturday. We shall see, though. Baylor's offense was a different animal and did some things that TCU won't be able to really replicate. TCU does do a lot of things well, though... obviously. And it's probably the toughest test for our defense to date when you consider the situation (our offense is struggling) and the venue.




Defensive Points Per Drive:

Texas Tech - 2.31 points allowed per possession. 70th in the country.
(conf only) - 2.46 points allowed per drive. 7th in the conference.

TCU - 2.31 points allowed per possession. 70th in the country.
(conf only) - 2.45 points allowed per drive. 5th in the conference.


Defensive TD Percentage:

Texas Tech - 24.7% of possessions end with opponents running a TD play. 46th in the country.
(conf only) - 30.5% of conf. opponents' possessions are TDs. 6th in the league.

TCU - 28.4% of possessions end with opponents running a TD play. 71st in the country.
(conf only) - 30% of drives end with opponent TD. 5th in the conference.

Defensive Turnover Percentage:

Texas Tech - 12.9% of opponents' possessions end with a turnover. 51st in the country.
(conf. only) - 11.9% -- 4th in the conference.

TCU - 11.1% of opponents' possessions end with a turnover. 68th in the country.
(conf. only) - 15% -- 2nd in the conference (behind Baylor... you're welcome, Baylor)

Defensive Yards Per Play:

Texas Tech - 5.4 yards allowed per play. 40th in the country.

TCU- 5.70 yards allowed per play. 62nd in the country.


We should be able to have some success this Saturday offensively. A lot of teams have. If OU didn't lose Gabriel early in their game against TCU, their numbers would look even worse. As bad as our defense has played in spurts against KSU, Baylor, UT and OSU, TCU's defense has not been any better.

It's going to take a lot of points to win Saturday. I'm going to guess in the high 30s, a mark that seems insurmountable after watching last week's game. But don't be surprised if the things we did against WVU and Ok. State work in a similar fashion against TCU. Their defense is "gettable." They also still haven't seen our vaunted "3-QB Package."

Unfortunately, I cannot make it to the game this weekend, and I have two tickets available.

I can work on pricing for a good Red Raider, but similar tickets are listed on Stub Hub from $250 to $450 apiece.

Please do not DM me, as I won't be able to check the site as often as I need to.

Just send me a text at 806-928-5977

FINAL UPDATE: Our interactive Investor Packet Email has now gone out to over 80 RRS members! 11 of you have yet to open, an a number of folks have not worked their way through the info.

Do us a favor and take a beat this week to click through the deck, term sheet, and then the last form to either claim your allocation, request a meeting, or indicate you’re passing so we can get line of sight on our progress.

Your interest has exceeded any expectation we had, but then again your support of our brand has been outsized since we launched, so it shouldn’t have. Thank you Raiders, and Wreck’em ⚡️



UPDATE: I am floored by the nearly 60 RRS members who have expressed interest in our raise. Just so damn proud. Each of you should now have a personal email from me with your dedicated Raise Packet containing links to the deck, terms, and allocation reservation. Ping me if you did not receive!



I want to first tell each of you on this board how humbled, appreciative, and honored I feel to have had your support of this little cocktail brand this year. When we launched in Q1, with zero distribution, 66% of our revenue that quarter came out of a little Texas college town called Lubbock Texas. That started here, on this site. Less than a year later, with your support across the state, my team and I have built the 5th best selling, and 5th fastest selling, vodka RTD in one of the largest markets in the country. The four above we are gaining on? Huge national portfolio brands, with global organizations like High Noon, Deep Eddy, Absolute, and Ciroc. We are punching with the largest players in the game with 11 employees, and a total operating budget less than what they spend on office supplies at their home offices.

I'm proud to announce that next month (after current shareholders claim their allocation) we will be kicking off our Series A Funding Round to power deepening our foothold in Texas, and out of state expansion. I have a personal goal of attracting 20 RRS Members to the All hands family of accredited investors, and seeing Red Raiders lead this round. If you or someone you know has legitimate interest, please DM your name and email address, and I will see that you get a copy of our deck and term sheet next month.

Thank you all so much for supporting All Hands, and Wreck'em Tech⚡️

Short and sweet...Im still mad. Losing is one thing, getting your ass kicked at home in front a sellout crowd is another.

The thing that bothers me the most though:
For over a decade now, EVERY TIME I start to believe Tech is going to turn the corner they have a game like this and drain every ounce of belief. I am just so sick of feeling this way about Tech football. There is zero reason why this program can't be great. Yet, they just cannot turn that corner...

I love Joey, think he's a perfect fit. I do still believe big things are coming with him at the helm. It's only year 1 and the offensive line alone shows you there are some areas where he is going to have to build it up. The culture change has been evident, this team fights.

repeat, its only year 1, its only year 1, its only year 1...

But, holy shite am I tired of believing they are about to turn the corner and then watching what we saw on Saturday.
Texas Tech fandom is an abusive relationship and I am a one codependent fvcker

Whew!! Some shit has hit the fan in south Dallas.

Duncanville Boys stipped of their 2022 title (Anthony Black saga) and the Girls have been banned for 3 years from post season, both stemming from recruiting violations.

Duncanville is coached by David Peavy (Micah Peavy's dad) who is married to Anthony Black (Top 10 2022/Arkansas signee) mom. David has been suspended 1 year.

They've got some studs at Duncanville currently, with more coming up the pipeline. Don't think it will have any impact on them transferring out, but might be seeing the Duncanville dynasty collapse before our own eyes (if they are given a post season ban at later date which is highly likely).

In 2006 we came up for the Missouri game and it was homecoming. Our best QB, as far as total numbers, had 2 picks and 2 fumbles that day. We all wondered who this kid is and WHY is he the QB. Literally on that day he was like a deer in the headlights. AND he had a very good line in front of him. All that to say this McGuire/Kittley/Morton first year they will get better. So carry on

Guns up
Wreck’em

and yes I was very disappointed Saturday night.

For each position on offense, you can either keep the current player or cut them and gamble in the transfer portal. Out of the returners next year, who would you keep?

It's TCU hate week and I'm here for all it! Screw them and their trust funds!

Original twizzlers. Bring it! And go!
