The guys from the 2017 recruiting class are starting to trickle into the program for summer conditioning. I saw posts indicating that both JUCO's Marquise Blair (S) and Jordan Agasiva (OL) graduated from JC. There is also a 6'1" 180 lb. Texas Tech transfer WR named Bronson Boyd, who was dismissed from Tech shortly after enrolling in January 2016. I cannot find anything official on his dismissal, but this is what the rumor mill stated: According to Red Raider Sports, mid-term signee wide receiver Bronson Boyd has been dismissed from the team as of Saturday morning.
The official stance from LAJ’s Don Williams and Texas Tech spokesperson Robert Giovannetti is that they don’t have any information at this time, but according to this Reddit thread, Bronson screwed up royally:He and Farrar (another early enrollee) were out last night and they got into an argument that turned violent, and Boyd drew a pocket knife and Farrar ended up cut between his lip and his chin. Coaches and police showed quickly to tend to Farrar, who bled a lot but seems to be ok- he was back in the football facility today.
Boyd was kicked out off the team/out of school first thing this morning. For those not keeping track, this was literally Boyd and Farrar’s second weekend at Tech. -____-
Oh and some recruits were with them, so it basically killed our chances at a 3 star CB and a 3 star DE supposedly.
I don’t know any reason not to trust this information from the Reddit thread, but just like anything else, take the information with a grain of salt.
He was a 4 star recruit and the 3rd highest rated recruit in the 2016 Tech recruiting class. He had an offer from the Utes out of HS. He will need to sit this year.
