Wooooo! Chris Perry is Eligible . . . This Year!

Don't ask me how or why, but the NCAA has granted a waiver filed by Texas Tech to allow defensive tackle Chris Perry to be eligible this fall to play and practice immediately. Perry will have 4, that's right, 4 years of eligibility. Perry transferred from Miami to Texas Tech and started taking classes this spring. More on this tonight.

Chris Perry
This could be huge

Yes
Perry is the big (300+ pound) guy we've been looking for on the D line!  Praise the football gods the offerings worked!!!  With him and Whitlock in the middle, and possibly Agoucha and also Henly, this could be huge.  

Think about this D with Dixon and Sesay on the ends with the above DTs in the middle with an improved linebacking core behind them!

H-O-L-Y
Crap!!!  That is awesome!!

Perry is literally 6'3" 310 lbs.  He was a very highly recruited talent coming out of high school and chose Miami over several other impressive SEC offers (and OU).  He will come in and contend for a spot right away!  He may even start depending on how Henley and Whitlock perform.  He is the ideal size for a run-stuffing DT.  

Man we needed that!!!!

nice
I hope Perry can play somewhere close to the level of his offer list.  If so, we will be in damn good shape.
