Over the offseason, one of the biggest stories that college football folks got to chatter on about was the way Joey McGuire and the Texas Tech Red Raiders went all in on recruiting and had a ton of success thanks to the magical combination of NIL and the transfer portal.

And along the way, a few folks got their feelings hurt over the way the Red Raiders were recruiting. Apparently it’s a bad thing in the eyes of some for an underdog program to have anything that resembles success.
