Texas Tech Football held their annual Junior Day back on January 18th, where recruits got to visit Lubbock, experience Texas Tech Football and check out the Men's Basketball home game vs Arizona.

The Junior Day was filled with prospects who already held an offer from the Red Raiders, though there were a few invited who did not posses an offer at the time. One of those was Choctaw (OK) athlete Izzy Hammons. Hammons made the trip to West Texas and enjoyed his Junior Day visit, but left without an offer.

That changed on Hammons' return trip to the 806. The 6-foot-3, 225 pound prospect was in Lubbock on Sunday, June 1st for the Red Raiders' first camp of the summer, where he picked up his first Power 4 offer and second overall after impressing the coaches.

With the offer, Texas Tech has jumped up Hammons' list of preferred destinations and the Red Raiders are expected to stay a factor moving forward in his recruitment.

After the camp, RedRaiderSports spoke with Hammons for his reaction to the day in Lubbock, picking up his Texas Tech offer and more.

Out here, it’s cheese or be cheesed.

Tailgates aren’t about finger food and folding chairs—they’re about smoke, swagger, and a game plan that includes seconds.

Their vibe is country club. Ours is cowboy boots, crushed cans, and cheddar that slaps.

Cheese belongs with the bold—and the bold wear scarlet and black.
