Life on the Road
The best way to describe the start of this season would probably be a description of numerous days on the road. Normally, for teams in years past, this would be a problem, but the Red Raiders have handled the several weeks mainly in hotels well. They’re focused, organized, and have responded to any challenge Coach Flora or the coaching staff have thrown their way.
Over the past two weeks, the...

“There is a certain level of excitement Don Flora gets when he watches Miara Cave, and that’s without having coached an actual match yet.
After spring drills last May, he said Cave was hands-down the most-improved player on the team. Through one week of spring drills, the first-year Texas Tech head coach remains firm on the assessment.
The key ingredient - confidence.”
A Series of Learning
Learning. I believe that’s the term I’ve heard nearly every 20 minutes of the practices I have attended so far. Good thing, too, because it really showed at last night’s Red and Black scrimmage.
Coach Flora and his staff has introduced several new concepts and systems over the past week, and with a group that currently consists of 11 newcomers, the real question has been how quickly the team...
Christmas in August
Ever since he was hired in January, Don Flora has described reporting day as his “other” Christmas. That’s just the excitement the first-year head coach has going into this season.
That excitement was evident tonight as 23 players reported for the start of fall camp. While reporting day normally consists of a series of meetings with various departments, you could see a look of excitement from...
