Texas Tech football: Red Raiders add Duke grad transfer LB

Good football teams almost always seem to have quality special teams play. Unfortunately, that’s an area of the game that has been an issue for the Texas Tech football program for years.

To try to help remedy that issue, Matt Wells is bringing Duke grad transfer Jacob Morgenstern into the fold. The 6-foot-4, 215-pound outside LB from Connecticut is known primarily as a special teams contributor and he could help the Red Raiders sure up their kick coverage unit.

Last year, Morgenstern earned the Bill Keziah Award as Duke’s special teams player of the year according to his bio on the official Duke football website.
