I haven’t done this the past few weeks, because we are in the middle of baseball season and it’s exciting times for the basketball program. But there was a lot that happened last week, so here’s an update on what has been happening:

• Donovan Smith, 85 rated ATH, committed to Texas Tech a couple weeks ago. Smith currently plays at Bishop Gorman and is the son of Texas Tech’s new RB coach. Seth C wrote about him a while back.
• Ty’Kieast Crawford, 95 rated OT, received an offer from Texas Tech a couple weeks ago. Crawford already has offers from schools like Alabama and USC among others.
• Jay Hardy, 94 rated SDE, received an offer from the Red Raiders two weeks ago. Hardy has almost 30 offers so far according to 247sports.
• Wilson Long, 87 rated DT-QB, decommitted from Texas Tech last week. With Long no coming to Junior Day, it appeared only a matter of time before he decommitted.
• Quin Bright, 87 rated RB, named the Red Raiders in his Top 8 a few weeks ago. Other schools include Arizona, Missouri and Nebraska among others.
• Brynden Walker, 86 rated OLB, received an offer from Texas Tech two weeks ago. However, he ended up committing to Oklahoma State last Monday.
