ODDS AND ENDS | Baseball post is coming later today previewing the series with Houston.

SB Nation's Spencer Hall goes behind the scenes with Mississippi St. and it's terrific.

TEXAS TECH SOFTBALL | The softball team travels to Missouri to take on a very good Missouri team this weekend.

TEXAS TECH BASEBALL | More baseball links will be happening later in the morning, but I enjoyed this segment on RaiderPower:

Raider Power: Texas Tech Players Enjoy a Game of Catch with Local Kids (via techathletics)

TEXAS TECH FOOTBALL | Here's a couple of miscellaneous links.

• Pre-Snap Read's Paul Myerberg previews the New Mexico Lobos, one of Texas Tech's opponents next year and new coach Bob Davie.
• I just picked these two things up as I perused Google News this morning. Texas Tech is apparently going to travel to California to check out QB Aaron Zwahlen (6-3/195 | Hudl) who looks to be a passing quarterback, who is mobile, but not a runner and runs a lot of his high school offense out of the Pistol. Also, Texas Tech has offered Florida DL Joey Ivie (6-5/265 | YouTube). I can't promise to link to these all of the time, but when the content isn't hidden by a subscription.
