Athlon Sports ranks Texas Tech WR transfer Derrick Willies as No. 3 JUCO player

Athlonsports.com has ranked the top 25 junior college football transfers that will make an impact on the field next season and a Texas Tech Red Raider is very high on the list. Wide receiver Derrick Willies from Trinity Valley Community College checks in at No. 3 on Athlon’s countdown.

Ranked the No. 1 JUCO college wide receiver in the nation last year, Willies is a perfect fit for the Texas Tech offense. At 6-foot-2, 210-pounds, he is the type of player head coach Kliff Kingsbury has been trying to find at outside receiver since his arrival in 2013.
