I’m not sure what Pop Issacs has to offer the Coogs but he’s been added through the portal.
I missed that, if there’s no lingering issues with his hip he’s a player
J.T. Toppin, Big XII Player of the Year, will return to Texas Tech for his Senior year. There is rumored to be a great deal of money involved.
4M is the rumored number of monies
The Matador Club, of which I am not a member, has been shelling out serious money in football and basketball. Both lines for the football team have been completely replaced with transfers.
Some of my Tech contemporaries have made a lot of money.
…and the only tradeoff is the occasional earthquake and groundwater poisoning! I kid, sort of.
I’m curious how the upcoming NIL regulations will affect things, if at all
I am too. This may be the last “unregulated” year.
It is, at least until the next lawsuit
Cody Campbell has done well for just a dumb football player.
Who’s he? I heard there was primarily one rich Tech grad, interested in Tech sports and financing all this. Is that true, and is this the guy?
Former Tech OL benchwarmer (eta not a benchwarmer, he was actually quite good) West Texas Fracker. Double Eagle Energy, then he sold it for a few billion.
Thanks. I hope he’s not also one of those two fuckers funding all the right-wing wackos in the leg. I remember they were oil money also. Much healthier for citizens when rich folks fund sports rather than politics.
eta2: Cody Campbell gave Tech 25M for their stadium upgrades and they’re naming the field after him
Damn.
