The first major event of the NFL offseason, the NFL Scouting Combine, is underway in Indianapolis, Indiana. While there is only one Red Raider, Pat Mahomes, participating, his performance and future NFL success can significantly benefit his alma mater.
Mahomes is the best quarterback prospect ever to come from Texas Tech. Even though Red Raider passers have put up prolific numbers in the post Spyke Dyes era, that success has not translated to the NFL.
Because high profile Texas Tech quarterbacks like Kliff Kingsbury and Graham Harrell have not been able to make a name for themselves on Sundays, many claim that the system is chiefly responsible for the success of Red Raider signal callers.
