Texas Tech basketball fans weren’t quite sure just what we should expect from Kevin McCullar when the 2019-20 season began. Now, after he made massive strides in his redshirt freshman season, most Red Raider fans believe that he’s a building block for the future.
Don’t forget that McCullar made the unusual decision to forego his senior year of high school basketball to enroll at Texas Tech early. Thus, he arrived on campus in January of 2019 with the full intention of redshirting, which he did.
Therefore, he was somewhat overlooked by fans because his arrival came in the middle of the best season in program history.
