This week in Kliff

Well the story that is floating around is his parents want him to go out of the state to get away from this guy. He has only been a bad influence.

But the fact is all of these are stories and no one really knows the whole truth other than he decommitted on Friday and was visiting Baylor Sunday. But Waco is only about 75 miles away so he could have gone to Waco to go shopping and just stopped by the campus. I know that when I am in Waco I do that to see the bears.

These are all just stories so there is nothing that can be said.


The guy that he lives with is a Tech alum named Matt Copeland. He is apparently pushing for Baylor. I have met Matt and have several mutual friends. This much I can confirm. My understanding is Matt's father (?) used to coach with Briles? This I don't know for a fact. I also heard from a pretty reliable source that Stidham's parents are encouraging him to go to school out of state. This is also hearsay though. I guess we will see what will happen. The Tech deal apparently blew up when Kliff wouldn't guarantee the kid (when asked directly by Copeland) that he wouldn't redshirt this year. They were trying to get a commitment from KK that he would be the leader to start next year. Kliff told them he would be given every opportunity. But in fairness to KK, he did just have a true freshman (Mahomes) throw for over 600 yards against the #5 team in the country. I think, in reality, this spooked the kid as well.

The last thing a 5 star recruit wants to do is compete for a job. Especially at Texas Tech.

    • It’s been awhile, but I seem to remember 5 D starters out & 2 O starters out (OL). A big difference is that Simon wasn’t involved yet. He’s totally changed LP’s rushing attack from last year as a bruising, explosive addition to Barnes, Sandolph & Bright. Last year—and early this season—LP was missing that element. Now, Coach Berneathy is not making talented players wait like many other coaches & even his predecessors at LP. If the kid can produce at the varsity level, they’re moved up. And man, has Simon produced! Over 1200 yards & 20 TD’s in less than a full season so far! It’s allowed LP to alternate RB’s where Barnes doesn’t take all the pounding. Barnes and Sandolph are also able to split out as receivers as desired to add threats that weren’t really an option last year. The PNG/LP game was a full-on tilt & good for both squads. I remember Gary Joseph in the end zone giving his son pointers as an extra set of eyes since he’d had experience with LP in past PO matchups. That was a good game. The score wasn’t really indicative of the game. Not sure anyone felt it was over until the final whistle! Good luck to y’all in Cajun Country. Bring back a win for SE Texas. (Yes. La Porte is still SETX. Ha!)
    • SEC fan bases before Texas got there: “The horns aren’t ready for this. Every week is a battle.” SEC fan bases after Texas arrived: “Texas has the easiest SEC schedule ever!” SEC fan bases after every one of their teams has lost to one or more SEC teams from the bottom half of the standings, many of whom Texas beat comfortably: 🤐
    • With a big win against the rival to close out the year… look to see Lamar make the playoffs next year
