Day 2 of the NFL draft finds Lady Luck on side of Tech players

#78 - One of my all time fav Texas Tech players, Louis Vasquez (#65 Tech) was drafted #14 by the San Diego Chargers in round three today placing him at the #78 overall mark. He was a Sr and an Offensive Guard for our Red Raiders and was often a key player helping to give Harrell the pocket protection he needed while also helping to keep Harrell's sack stats at a low number. He assisted the WR's and RB's to be able to scramble and find the all important open lanes needed. He was part of our beloved O-line which created havoc for many college defensive teams. They had individual nicknames due to their ability to wreak havoc on opposing teams, Louis' nickname was "Super Hero Indian"...mainly because he looked like an Indian.
# 120 - Brandon Williams (#84 Tech) was picked up by my 'BOYS from "Big D" during the 4th round at the 20th slot placing him overall at 120. Brandon was a Defensive End for Tech last season but also left school early for the draft (argh) as a JR. Dallas picked up this slot in a trade with Tampa Bay.
