I grew up in Snyder, 80 miles south of Lubbock which is really close by west Texas standards.  We went to Lubbock just to see a movie, hit the mall and have fajitas at Chilis.  We loved going to Tech games.  Everyone I grew up with that had talent of any kind developed a deep passion to leave by the time they were in 6th grade.  That place makes you hunger desperately to be somewhere else, somewhere relevant.  Somewhere the wind isn’t constantly blowing. Somewhere with a tree or an interesting undulation in the earth to break up the endless flatness.  It might not be true for all of them but many of these money whipped athletes are going to yearn to be elsewhere at some point.  They are going to see the amazing places college football is played on their TV every Saturday and know they can have that experience.  Tech might win some recruiting battles but the portal is going to be a big problem.
