One year after unprecedented bad luck befell the Texas Tech football program at the quarterback position, 2019 is not off to the greatest of starts in that regard. Wednesday, Matt Wells revealed that true freshman QB Maverick Mcivor sustained a broken foot in Saturday’s second intrasquad scrimmage, an injury that required surgery and will keep him out for the majority of the season.
“He’ll be out an extended time,” Wells said. “Not sure if it’s season-ending or not but it’ll be an extended amount out time, [he] could potentially be back in November.”
The San Angelo product who missed virtually all of his senior season after tearing a knee ligament last September had worked his way into the conversation for the backup QB job behind incumbent sophomore Alan Bowman.
