Texas Tech Basketball:

LAJ's Jeff Walker previews tonight's game against Colorado and writes about how the Red Raiders hope to stop their road woes with the Buffaloes. PK had the team watch a movie on Tuesday instead of film and will be relaxing the dress code on away games, which might be a start:

"We're going to watch a movie (Tuesday night) instead of watching more film," Knight said on Tuesday before the team departed for Boulder. "We'll have a hard shootaround (Wednesday) as opposed to a lighter one. We'll get dressed and taped at the hotel so that we're ready to play once we get to the arena."

Knight said he's also letting up on the travel requirements, allowing players to dress more casually on road trips than they have in the past. He said the players can now wear travel warm-up suits and a collared shirt as opposed to khaki pants that used to be required. He wants the players to feel as comfortable as possible, he said, like they were playing at home.

Texas Tech Baseball:

The College Baseball Blog notes that Texas Tech has been added to the UTSA Baseball Classic (official press release). Apparently, UTSA was kind enough to let the Red Raiders in their tournament after Northern Illinois canceled all games this weekend. LAJ's George Watson also has more on the Red Raiders now traveling to San Antonio. Here's Texas Tech's schedule for this weekend's games:

  • Texas Tech v. Louisiana-Lafayette @ 10:00 a.m., Saturday, 2/23
  • Texas Tech v. Army @ 10:00 a.m., Sunday, 2/24
  • Texas Tech v. UTSA @ 2:00 p.m., Monday, 2/25

The Cadets have a solid player in Cole White who should be one of their top starting pitchers and plays first base on the other days.

Cool...my dad pitched for them in the early 60's. Kieschnick is rated as the 39th top prospect for the 08 MLB draft, so that's pretty solid.
