The 12th-seeded Cornhuskers, who finished with a 2-14 Big 12 record, upset fifth-seeded Missouri 75-60 today. Brandon Richardson led four Nebraska players in double figures with 19 points. His four-point play with 3:36 remaining gave the Cornhuskers a 65-51 lead. Nebraska held Missouri guards...
Texas redshirt freshman running back Chris Whaley didn't make a single appearance on the field last season as he struggled with injuries. At Tuesday's open practice, Whaley's powerful hits to would-be tacklers caught the eyes of the Texas coaches, who are looking to establish a more dominant running game to help take some pressure off Garrett Gilbert. "Chris [Whaley] is doing a good job," Mack Brown said. "We're trying to play him and Cody [Johnson]...
Texas Tech will host its pro day Thursday at 10:30 a.m at Jones AT&T Stadium. The event is closed to the general public. A list of participants and times will not be released, but former Red Raiders offensive tackle Brandon Carter and cornerback Jamar Wall have said they would be participating. Carter, originally from Longview, is known around the Big 12 Conference for his facepaint and wild hairstyles during his time as a Red Raider....
Texas A&M held their pro day as nine NFL team representatives descended on Aggieland. Seventeen players worked out for the various scouts, including Fossil Ridge graduate Howard Morrow and Plano West graduate Jordan Pugh. Pugh, who played safety for the Aggies during his senior season, posted the most impressive stats on the day, finishing with the highest vertical leap at 40.5 inches and the fastest 40 time at 4.48. Also in attendance were Colts safety...
KATY, Texas - Eddie Williams scored 22 points to lead Stephen F. Austin to a 77-54 victory over Texas-Arlington in the first round of the Southland Conference tournament Wednesday. Orren Tims came off the bench to add 17 points for the Lumberjacks (22-8), who never trailed. Marquez Haynes, the Southland Player of the Year, led the Mavericks (16-14) with 17 points. After trailing 33-20 at halftime, Texas-Arlington pulled to within 10 points, but Williams later...
The seven-game losing streak is history. Texas Tech is not, at least for one more day in the Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship. The Red Raiders (17-14) opened the second half with a 8-0 run and never relinquished command in an 82-67 victory over Colorado. Tech held the Buffs 34 points under their total from Saturday's meeting in Boulder. "It's a game we needed badly," Texas Tech coach Pat Knight said. John Roberson led four...
Steve Spagnuolo and the St. Louis Rams have the first round draft pick this year. Associated Press writer Jeff Latzke reported that after recent visits to Norman, Okla., Spagnuolo and Rams GM Billy Devaney could be interested in taking multiple Oklahoma Sooners this year. Spagnuolo and Devaney were at Oklahoma's pro day on Tuesday to check out defensive tackle Gerald McCoy, offensive tackle Trent Williams and tight end Jermaine Gresham. The two will make another...
Texas Tech defeated Colorado, 82-67, Wednesday afternoon in the opening round of the Big 12 men's tournament in Kansas City, Mo., just days after losing to the Buffaloes on th road. John Roberson (19 points), Nick Okorie (18), Brad Reese (16) and Mike Singletary (13) gave the Red Raiders four scorers in double figures. The Red Raiders held Colorado's Cory Higgins to 18 points. He scored 30 against the Red Raiders in Saturday. Red Raider...
Texas Tech coach Pat Knight admitted that basketball at 11:30 in the morning can be an interesting proposition. Some of the players may not have been on the court competitively that early since their AAU days. The early start could be as good an explanation as any for the first half of the first game in the Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship, where Tech leads Colorado 35-31 at halftime. The Red Raiders hit just two... March 9, 2010
Texas Tech basketball limped into last year's Big 12 Conference tournament with a 3-13 conference record and as the No. 11 seed. The Red Raiders had already lost twice to their first-round opponent, Texas A&M. But in the second half of the tournament game against the Aggies, forward Mike Singletary reeled off 29 consecutive points for the Red Raiders. He outscored A&M team, 29-18, in a nine-minute stretch in a game Tech went on to...
Texas Tech men's basketball coach Pat Knight was asked during Monday's teleconference why he does not wear a suit while coaching the Red Raiders. "I've got a contract with Under Armour," said Knight, adding that the Big 12 does not allow coaches to wear lapel pins, and so he wears Under Armour golf shirts instead of the company's lapel pins. "I pattern myself after football coaches," Knight said. "You don't see them with coats and...
2011 Lake Travis High School quarterback prospect Michael Brewer committed to Texas Tech Friday. Brewer (6-1, 175) will attend the Elite 11 summer camp, which is reserved for the best quarterback prospects in the nation. He will then try to help the Lake Travis Cavaliers defend their 2009 4A State Championship, the school's third consecutive state title after Texas' Garrett Gilbert won two at Lake Travis. I had the chance to speak with the newest...
After a week that saw the No. 23 Texas A&M men's basketball team sweep Oklahoma and Oklahoma State by double-digits, the Aggies saw their ranking... do nothing in both the AP and coaches' polls. At 22-8 and tied for second in the RPI's hardest conference in the country, one would think that the team has earned some semblance of national respect. Especially playing well after Derrick Roland went down with a broken leg on Dec....
Texas defensive coordinator Will Muschamp will be able to recruit the way he always has -- at least for another year. The Washington Post is reporting that the NCAA is allowing a one-year grace period since it imposed a rule that forces coaches-in-waiting, like Muschamp, to be saddled with the same recruiting restrictions as head coaches. Texas athletic director DeLoss Dodds was opposed to the legislation when it was passed: "Obviously, since this legislation impacts... |
