Joey McGuire and his Texas Tech Red Raiders football team keep thriving on the recruiting trail. On Thursday, McGuire and the Red Raiders picked up a commitment out of East Texas as S’Vioarean Martin announced his intent to play his college career in Lubbock. And that’s a solid commitment for McGuire and Texas Tech as Martin can help bolster the secondary for TTU. The 6-foot-2, 185 pound cornerback is a member of the 2026 recruiting class and is a 4-star athlete, according to On3.

Texas Tech football is heading to the Independence Bowl to finish their season. A bowl bid at 6-6 in a lower-tier bowl like the Independence Bowl might not be a desired destination but it is the one for Joey McGuire and his team in his second season. This marks the third time in program history the Red Raiders have played in this bowl. This time they will face a different opponent than their first two trips.

Texas Tech ended their season 6-6, which for most could be considered disappointing. With several returning starters and a head coach with more fire than his predecessors, expectations were high. The Red Raiders dealt with numerous injuries and were 1-3 then 3-5. However, Joey McGuire rallied his team to finish with a bowl bid. The Independence Bowl might not be an eye-popping game, but Tech has a chance to finish the year with a postseason victory. That is what every school wants.

Texas Tech football just wrapped up their 2023 season this past Friday. While the rivalry against Texas as Big 12 foes might have ended on a low note in a 57-7 blowout, Tech finished the season on a high note thanks to a strong November. The Red Raiders are heading to a bowl game for the third consecutive year, the first time that has happened since the Mike Leach era. How Joey McGuire has weathered this season’s storm of a poor start and bad injuries cannot be understated.

Texas Tech football has gotten back on track the past two weeks with wins over Houston and Baylor. After arguably the offense’s worst performance of the season against West Virginia, offensive coordinator Zach Kittley has found something that clicks: Tahj Brooks. With Behren Morton at the helm for likely the rest of the season, a healthy running game is just what a young quarterback needs to lean on. For four games in a row, Brooks has topped 100 yards rushing.
