We expected the process to be really good and it\u2019s been wildly more successful than that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Giovannetti says he knows the series will feature Brendan Sorsby, but it shouldn\u2019t take away from what Texas Tech is doing currently.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">\u201cThat\u2019s not the entire story of our offseason, that\u2019s not the entire story of this program,\u201d Giovannetti said. \u201cIt\u2019s always the next man up kind of mentality. I just think there is so many great things happening here that you don\u2019t want that to get lost in a story that really did take a hold of the nation. We\u2019re not shying away from that, we understand it happened, but we\u2019re also moving forward.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Part of moving forward includes getting quarterback Will Hammond back, who will take over the position when he recovers from injury.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">\u201cWe\u2019re a viable part of the college football, college athletics landscape,\u201d Giovannetti said. \u201cYou\u2019ve seen it across the board in our success in a lot of sports, not just football, and so we want to tell that story.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">This series looks to bring the red raiders to your screen in a new way, while showcasing \u2018the brand\u2019 in unprecedented fashion.<\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2026 KCBD.
