Thanks Tuberville.
8. Texas Tech Red Raiders
2012 grade: B-
2016 grade: D+
Top signees: C Jared Kaster, LB Micah Awe, LB Will Smith, S Keenon Ward, OT Reshod Fortenberry
Easy to figure out how Texas Tech went 4-8 a year ago when you review this group. Tommy Tuberville’s last class at Tech, ranked 20th nationally by ESPN, was a disaster. ESPN 150 signees Dominique Wheeler and Michael Starts were among the 13 busts in this 27-man class. Only a couple of Tuberville’s nine junior college transfers made a meaningful impact, and so far just four high school signees have become multiyear starters.
