Texas Tech is all-in on the 2025 season as the Red Raiders made splashes in the transfer portal and in the coaching carousel ahead of Year 4 of the Joey McGuire era. They hired Mack Leftwich as offensive coordinator and Shiel Wood as defensive coordinator. Tech also signed a Top 5 portal class and head into the year with Big 12 championship aspirations.
We stop at all 13 FBS programs in Texas each spring as we compile the Dave Campbell’s Texas Football summer magazine. Our stop in Lubbock took place April 5 and included sit downs with McGuire, Leftwich, and Wood. Here are our notes from that visit.
