Class of 2020 Linebacker Krishon Merriweather Picks Texas Tech over OSU

The last recruiting pitch isn’t always the one that wins out. After an official visit to Oklahoma State over the weekend, junior college linebacker Krishon Merriweather, a three-star prospect from Garden City Community College, committed Tuesday to Texas Tech.

Merriweather picked the Red Raiders over Oklahoma State.

Both schools entered the mix late for the 6-foot, 230-pound inside backer, but Tech got in first with an offer on Dec. 2. OSU’s offer arrived three days later. He visited Lubbock last weekend then followed it up with a visit to OSU this weekend before coming to his conclusion.
