Usually the Strength & Conditioning coach of a staff goes unnoticed unless there are injury issues or endurance issues with a program. Though injury issues weren’t as big as they have been a few years ago for Texas Tech, 2015 was mired by endurance issues. Tech would almost always seem to start fast and jump out to a lead before looking over matched late in games and losing leads or unable to close the gap in games that were within reach. Some have speculated it may have to do with the mental toughness aspect of training and the ability to overcome adversity, while others thought the actual S&C program was lacking.
