For the Texas Tech offense to not miss a beat from the unit that finished second in the FBS last season in points and yards, some young receivers have to develop in a hurry to take on larger roles.
Cameron Batson and Jonathan Giles are OK with that.
Both are getting plenty of opportunity to show their stuff this spring. With the graduation of Tech career receiving leader Jakeem Grant, Batson’s getting first crack at the “H” inside receiver job. And with Ian Sadler being treated carefully this spring as he comes back from a knee injury, Giles is getting all the practice time he wants at “Y” inside receiver.
