The Class of 2017 could become the best in Texas Tech history

Culver, Moretti, Smith, Ondigo, Hicks, Vilarino, Benson. This freshman class has given us so much in terms of minutes, buckets, defense, and hope. These seven freshmen are the future of Texas Tech Basketball. It is unusual for a team like Texas Tech, who is not a blue-chip program, to have seven freshmen on a team and three of them contributing in big ways now. This class can remind Tech fans of the great 2014 class that are all now seniors. I think that the class of 2017 is better, not only does this group have talent like the Class of 2014, it comes in to a winning culture, and a coach that will make some of them into superstars.
