This week 5 star point guard Trae Young announced that Texas Tech is in his top six. The other five schools Young is also considering include Kentucky, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Washington, and Kansas. Young is considered to be one of the top three point guards in the country and is listed as one of ESPN's top 25 recruits for 2017. Coach Beard is obviously doing some good things on the recruiting trail for Texas Tech to be in the running with blue bloods like Kentucky and Kansas. The 6'1 -170 pound point guard resides in Norman and plays at Norman North High School.
