Since Grant McCasland took over as head coach, the Texas Tech basketball team has been built largely in the offseason through the transfer portal and late high school signings.
That has changed ahead of McCasland's third year in Lubbock. The Red Raiders received a commitment Monday from four-star guard Dakari Spear , the first pledge for Tech's 2026 recruiting class. Spear ranked the 83rd player in the country at 247Sports.
