Texas Tech loses recruit

ESPN Radio reports that Southlake QB Greg Mcelroy has changed his commitment from Texas Tech to Alabama. Wonder how much the Cotton Bowl influenced his decision?

Not nearly as much, I would think, as the fact that Tech QBs put up gawdy numbers in Lubbock but haven't done squat in the NFL. The Leach has a fun-to-watch offense, but Mike Shula knows the NFL game, too. If I was a QB and had a choice, it would be a no-brainer.

Alabama thought they were going to be able to bag Mustain, but he recommitted to Arkansas. Also last week a top Alabama HS QB committed to Arkansas. I am sure that Alabama was able to promise any QB interested the world.

I agree to an extent that a lot of Tech QB's are products of the system, but if i was a talented QB I would give Tech strong consideration. As a QB at Tech you will get to show all the scouts pretty much every kind of throw a QB has to make and you will be get to show how you read a lot of secondary defenses/looks.

Well, I'm sure the UA fans are disappointed-- with all this competition new QB Casey [deleted] may not get back on the field.

Does Mustain have a chant, yet?

One game, UA co-ed fans were chanting for Casey...

" We want [deleted]! We want [deleted]! We want [deleted]! "

Is it true Casey's roomate is college teammate Brett Goode?

If Arkansas signs their committments and gets a couple that are committed elsewhere to change as may very well happen, Mustain's chant may be "We're #1".

They'll be better, to be sure, but I don't think we'll here "we're No. 1" instead of "pig sooey" any time soon.

Mustain was a big pick up for arkansas but they will not be chanting we're #1 anytime in his 5 years there

It's a real shame.

Leach is such a class act.

It's actually cool, because we still have Taylor Potts, who is a better recruit and our first target anyway. We got a 4 star WR as soon as he left so....
