Texas Tech Football Notebook: Holmes and Grant Added

Organizing this a bit better:

+ Purdue CB Tarrion Grant (6-2/197): Grant was a 5-star 2025 recruit and the reclassified to the 2024 class, which means that he was held back and he graduated at the age he should have. Regardless, Grant is from South Carolina and as a freshman for Purdue he had 13 tackles and 2 passes broken up.

+ Houston DT Anthony Holmes, Jr. (6-2/295): Was just a sophomore and had 40 tackles with 8.5 tackles for a loss, 2 sacks, and 7 quarterback hurries. That’s highly productive and to add both Gill-Hunter and Howard is an incredible haul and wonder if Gill-Howard is going to be an end type of player.

+ OT Howard Sampson (6-8/325) North Carolina
+ OT Hunter Zambrano (6-5/305) Illinois State
