Just in: Patrick Mahomes Recommends Top Running Back Prospect for Texas Tech’s Joey McGuire
Lubbock, Texas — NFL superstar and Texas Tech legend Patrick Mahomes is using his influence to help out his former school. The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback recently suggested a potential top running back prospect for Texas Tech football head coach Joey McGuire, sparking excitement among Red Raider fans.
During a recent interview, Mahomes, known for his loyalty to his alma mater, expressed confidence in McGuire’s ability to elevate Texas Tech’s program and mentioned that he had his eye on a standout running back who could be a perfect fit for McGuire’s fast-paced offense.
“Coach McGuire is doing a great job building something special at Tech,” Mahomes said. “I’ve been watching this young running back, and I think he could really make an impact in Lubbock. He’s explosive, has great vision, and fits the style of play that Coach McGuire likes to run.”
While Mahomes didn’t reveal the name of the player, sources close to the Texas Tech program indicate that the quarterback has been tracking several high school and junior college prospects. Given Mahomes’ knowledge of the game and his personal success, his input could be valuable as Texas Tech continues to rebuild under McGuire’s leadership.
Joey McGuire, now in his second full season as Texas Tech’s head coach, has embraced the support of alumni like Mahomes, who remain dedicated to seeing the Red Raiders return to prominence in the Big 12. McGuire has already made strides in recruiting, securing top talent from across the state, and adding a high-caliber running back to his roster could be a game-changer.
“Patrick’s always been a huge supporter of our program, and his insights are appreciated,” McGuire said. “He’s a Red Raider through and through, and it’s great to have him involved as we continue to build.”
Texas Tech football has a proud history, with notable players like Mahomes bringing national attention to the program. If McGuire can land a top-tier running back, with some guidance from Mahomes, it could be a big step toward returning the team to its former glory.
Fans are eagerly awaiting further details about the prospect Mahomes has recommended. In the meantime, Red Raider Nation is buzzing with anticipation over the potential impact a star running back could have on the team’s future success.
