Wow! Slipped in under the radar. I don't know much about him but from a quick bit of research I like the hire

Texas Tech fan on Twitter said that he was a "great hire" and that we will be pleased with the results. Guess we'll have to wait and see...

Comes from Kingsbury's staff, charismatic guy that the players will love. I assume this means we'll keep the up tempo style of play.

Maybe he can talk those five that decommitted into returning and prevent anymore from doing so. Nice to someone so soon.

Welcome coach Jinks!!!

Not the "conventional" choice I thought we'd see.... but the people that know him seem to love him.

So much talent on hand... new coach from another wide open offense. Exciting times!
It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.

Interested to see how he fills out his staff. Have to admit, it's intriguing to have a strong Texas recruiter leading the team.

How about getting some excellent recruits from a very talent rich state??

I like the hire...young, can really make a name for himself. And they know a few things about offense at TT.

WELCOME TO THE NEST COACH JINKS!

According to BLADE Evan Foster, Terrance Landers , Kyree Calli and Dirion Hutchins

I guess it was only four.
