Texas Tech Spring Game in Frisco
For the second time in about a month, I made the trek out to the Cowboys’ training facility in Frisco, the Ford Center at The Star. This time around the Red Raiders competed against each other in the spring game.
You can see more pictures from the event in the slideshow on the A-J’s site.

The Opening Regional Dallas 2017
Today, hundreds of student-athletes from Texas, including four from Lubbock, competed against each other in skill challenges during The Opening Regional Dallas. Several of the players are also considering attending Texas Tech as their college to play division 1 football. Many of the football players are elite enough they will likely play on Sundays in the future. Additionally, it was interesting having the chance to see the Dallas Cowboys new practice facility, The Ford Center at The Star in Frisco.

A Day with Kliff Kingsbury
Last month I woke up bright and early for a 4:30 a.m. start to spend the day with Kliff Kingsbury before his Women’s Football Clinic on July 30. I was on assignment with the talented Matt Crossman for the Bleacher Report feature story “Kliff Kingsbury: A Day in the Life of Hottest Young Coach in College Football.” It’s an insightful read, be sure to check out the full story.
Along the way, I found inspiration through Chip Litherland’s Lebron, Wade and I assignment with ESPN The Magazine, and the time I woke up to spend the day with the Masked Rider.
Early Morning Workout
First thing in the morning, we met with Kliff outside the Football Training Facility and proceeded inside as he got ready for an early morning workout.
