With the signing period for college basketball already passed, Texas Tech head coach Chris Beard is hitting the recruiting trail with a vengeance. He has already offered a scholarship to a Lubbock standout and paid an in-home visit to one of the nation’s elite players.
During his 10 years as a Texas Tech assistant coach, Chris Beard developed a reputation for finding and developing talent from Texas. Now, as the program’s head coach, Beard is pursuing a prospect that plays his high school basketball just a few blocks away from the United Supermarkets Arena.
Lubbock Coronado guard Jarrett Culver, a 6-foot-5, 3-star recruit is the first player to receive a scholarship offer from the new Texas Tech head coach.
