Kliff Kingsbury has become quite fond of brining graduate transfers into his program. Players like Luke Stice, Emeka Okafor and Sam Atoe have all played their final seasons for Tech after graduating from other universities. Now, running back Derrick Mitchell Jr. is doing the same after graduating from Iowa. Joe Favia, of FanSided’s “Dear Old Gold” shared his thoughts with “Wreck ‘Em Red” about how Mitchell might fit in with Texas Tech.
One of the biggest changes Mitchell will face is learning the “Air Raid” offense. This system is far different from the pro-style offense run by Kirk Ferentz at Iowa.
