In this story:
Texas Tech continues its quest to solidify the No. 1 transfer portal class in the country, as elite WR Roy Alexander has officially committed to the Red Raiders. During his senior season with UIW, Alexander accounted for a whopping 1,108 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns on 100 receptions. He also added 62 yards and 2 touchdowns on 7 carries.
