The Midland Center was packed to capacity yesterday to see and visit with the new coach. The crowd did show incredible restraint when AD Meyers spoke as nothing was hurled in his general direction. Coach Tuberville is very engaging speaker but most of what we heard yesterday was what most of us have heard from his other stops around the state. My wife and I did get to speak with our new coach for a moment and had our picture taken with him. Tech is actively recruiting our nephew who is a 6'8", 280 lb offensive tackle here in Midland who we are quite proud of. Another highlight of yesterdays event was getting to sit at a table next to All American E. J. Holub who could still play a little ball if he had any elegibility left.
We are very excited about the upcoming Spring Game on April 17th. There will be a group of us from Midland going to Lubbock on the 16th to tailgait most of the night. I hope all DTNs can make it. We are having a flag made with one of our DTN Logos so all DTNs can find us and stop by for a beer and a Heartattack!!!

Thank you for the comments
Best wishes for nephew…make sure he does not slip over to the dark side…
I hope he has a great career, where ever he goes to play.

Great News
Thanks RaiderDoc. I’m guessing your nephew has to have his clothes custom made. Man that kid is huge!

Good Job
Tailgating all night for the spring game, I think thats exactly what Riverboat is talking about when he says he expects more from the fans.
Wish I was just a bit closer!
Making the trip
Amazing. Thanks for the update. I will be coming from San Antonio for the Spring Game. I have never gone to a Spring game, but for some reason I am excited to see this one. Guess we can thans Leach for building a program where we really want to see what the new guy is all about. Go Red Raiders.
agreed
thanks for the news. i’m definitely going to the spring game, and i hope that we actually have a good turn out this year. I always hear about schools like Nebraska selling out their spring game. it would be nice to actually fill up more than a couple of sections for once

Also attended the Midland Luncheon
Didn’t hear the exact attendance but it appeared to be around 400 or so, and Tuberville worked the whole room, which I actually found impressive. During Q&A someone asked if he would run any formations utilizing a tight end. Tub’s response: “I’d like to, but we don’t have any on campus.” Maybe not a leachism, but still pretty funny.
Very important phrase though...
Since Adam James is supposedly a TE. Does this mean he wont be playing him there or anywhere? And I have to disagree, there are a lot of Tight Ends at Tech. Sorry ladies, had to say it though.
That's your project

Also a lot of tight Wads on campus.

Which Midland School
Just curious – which Midland school is your nephew going too? Lee, High, or Christian?
That was my guess.
Couple of guys I work with told me about a D 1 recruit @ Midland Christian – thought it was probably your nephew – would love to see him at TTU!
