Texas Tech football: Players that benefitted from the abbreviated spring

Sometimes what seems like negative can work out in one’s favor. That might be the case for some members of the Texas Tech football program as they might have actually benefitted from a shortened spring practice period.

Typically, teams are allowed to have 15 practice sessions each spring, including one official spring game. But this year, the Red Raiders were able to hold just four practices before the coronavirus pandemic shut the world down.

Now, we are looking at a summer where athletes are able to return to campus for the first time since March. But the summer workouts are not going to be as beneficial as full team practices would be.
