Left guard might feature the biggest help-wanted sign on the Texas Tech football team at the moment.
Sure, some other positions lack returning starters. But the other vacancies at least have candidates who have played in games for the Red Raiders (inside receiver Cameron Batson, to name one), or young guys who have been lauded (right tackle Terence Steele, for example) or transfers who’ve won favor (linebacker Luke Stice).
At least at the beginning of preseason practice, left guard’s up in the air among redshirt freshmen Cody Wheeler and Madison Akamnonu and sophomores Paul Stawarz and Jack Reichel.
