One of the traits Chris Beard has demonstrated in his two years at Texas Tech is his relentlessness when it comes to improving his roster. His constant churning of the roster has helped re-shape the team into a national contender in less time than almost anyone expected.
One avenue Beard has actively explored is the transfer market. Players like Tommy Hamilton and Brandone Francis were transfers he brought on board shortly after he was hired and now it appears he is trying to go that route with another potential impact player.
Anthony Tarke, a 6-foot-6, 205-pound sophomore from Gaithersburg, Maryland announced last week his intentions to transfer from the New Jersey Institute of Technology.
