Clearly it's an issue for them as well as anyone else they're recruiting.  Â

Clearly it's an issue for them as well as anyone else they're recruiting.   Lubbock is the perfect place for McIvor and Kliff is the perfect coach for him. He grew up in Fort Davis and supposedly was kind of taken aback by the bright lights and big city feel of San Angelo when he moved there his sophomore year. He might enjoy Pullman though if he visits. It's probably more like where he grew up than any major college town in America. It's probably too far from mama though. I think Tech would be the overwhelming favorite but for the fact that Kliff might not be around to tutor the kid. I see between 6-8 losses on Tech's schedule next season and I think Kliff has to go at least 7-5 to keep his job. My guess is that mama McIvor is looking at the same schedule I'm looking at and trying to figure out how Kliff keeps his job. Maybe if Tech comes out strong and beats Ole Miss in the opener it will get some recruiting momentum going but that one I've marked as a "L" for now.

He wasn't ready for this head coaching job, but he might learn and do better next time.  He'll get another head coaching chance in a few years after being a top OC at Texas and basically learning the Urban Meyer way of doing things from Herman. We'll see how he does the next go around.Â

As a Tech fan who follows the program pretty closely, candor requires me to reply that no, KK is not a good recruiter overall.   There were expectations upon his hiring that his age as well as overall happening guy reputation would serve him well on the recruiting trail.  Hasn't been the case at all. That said, we're talking about a QB here and that's the one area he's been relatively effective.  Mahomes, Davis Webb (3rd rounder), Baker Mayfield, and  Manziel are all guys he's had a hand in recruiting and developing.  Even last season's weak sister Nic Shimonek signed a free agent deal. In addition, Jacob Zeno has been listed as a Tech lean by even non TTU sites. My guess is that is not going to happen as Ga. is really recruiting him hard and he seems to keep extending his decision date.  Visited TT multiple times though.  Again, KK's job security is a concern.      Â

If they lose to Texas he was going to be fired.Â
May 10, 20187 yr Regarding McIvor, I believe his mom is a TT grad.  My understanding is that his parents are divorced and he lives with his mom.  One would think that and living in San Angelo would bode well for Tech.  There's that cumbersome little head coaching issue though.

May 13, 20187 yr TCU gets a late LB or strong safety commit for the '18 class.  Former Central Arkansas commit who got a release for family illness reasons.  Ran a 21.28 200M at 6'1" over 200 lbs and anchored the state meet 1st place 4x200 relay over the weekend.  Judging from his Hudl, the kid can play.  Not sure how he was overlooked at Mansfield Legacy unless he was huge grade risk.  Even the recruiting services overlooked him.  He's literally a no star recruit.  Reminds me of Matt Pryor who we signed out of California a few years back about this time of the year.  No stars, no recruiting profile, no other offers and 5 years later he was all-conference and a 6th round draft pick.   https://247sports.com/Player/Demauryon-Holmes-46055781 https://www.hudl.com/video/3/7959762/59c1715bb535bb01d424631d  Â
