HOCUTT STICKING WITH KINGSBURY

n Sunday afternoon, Kirby Hocutt, Texas Tech athletic director and College Football Playoff Committee chair, announced to the media Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury will return next season to lead the Red Raider football program.

Hocutt opened the news conference with a statement about his feelings on the past season but still thinks highly of the student

athletes on the team.

“Being here this afternoon, obviously, when your football season ends in November, it’s not a good thing,” Hocutt said. “Very disappointed with our performance this football season. That being said, I have a great amount of respect for the young men on this football team with what they do each and every week. It’s not easy being a student athlete.”

After his comments on reaching a bowl game, Hocutt mentioned the job security of Kingsbury moving forward.

Hocutt buried any rumors circulating the firing of Kingsbury and said he is looking forward to Kingsbury’s return for next season and the future.

“I believed in Kliff Kingsbury when we hired him in December of 2012, and I believe in Kliff Kingsbury today,” Hocutt said.

“I look forward to future success under his leadership as we move forward. I am confident that there are much better days ahead for Texas Tech football. Again, disappointed with where we are today,

CAMPUS

but optimistic about our future.”

Hocutt discussed the potential of Kingsbury changing roles in everyday tasks.

Kingsbury could benefit in giving up some duties to other coaches on the offensive side of the ball to focus on improving the Football Bowl Subdivision’s last-ranked defense.

“I think as we move forward you will see coach Kingsbury become much more involved and engaged on the defensive side of the ball than he’s ever been as a head coach up to this point in his career at

Texas Tech,” Hocutt said. “We’re in a period of self-evaluation. I would anticipate that coach Kingsbury will continue to be our play-caller on game days. I think he’s the best in the country at that. But obviously, the day-to-day involvement on the offensive side of the ball, he can’t continue to be as engaged each and every day to focus on the defensive side of the ball as he plans to going forward. Those decisions will be made in time.”

College students nationwide are experiencing firsthand the hardships of trying to afford an education.

While college hunger is nothing new, it has been a growing problem in recent years because of the

ever-increasing costs associated with higher learning, Danielle Robertson, communications and marketing manager of South Plains Food Bank, said. The issue is only emboldened by inflated living costs and other necessary expenses like insurance, textbook purchases and monthly rent.

“It’s not uncommon for a college

student to make paying for food a lower priority than paying tuition,” Robertson said. “However, skipping meals can have an overwhelming negative effect on an individual’s overall health. What we want college students to understand is that their health should come first.”

The Silent Raiders is a club that aims to increase awareness of deaf culture on Texas Tech’s campus. The club promotes involvement of American Sign Language students in the deaf community and helps provide opportunities for improving American Sign Language skills through interaction and immersion.

Kenna Dekle, a sophomore special education major from Leander, serves as the president

for the Silent Raiders. During each meeting, the members of the club typically play a game to get to know each other and to learn signs, Dekle said. Occasionally, there is a deaf guest or interpreter who comes to speak.

One of the main obstacles of American Sign Language is the textbook is a limited learning resource, Dekle said. Signs can change depending on the location and the different meanings cannot be learned from the book.

Federal judge halts overtime regulations

By MICHAEL CANTU News Editor

The Lubbock Chamber of Commerce and the United States Chamber expressed their content with a federal judge’s decision to block a set of regulations regarding overtime rules for businesses around the country.

The regulations were set to go into effect Thursday. However, late last week the ruling was halted via an injunction by Judge Amos Mazzant, according to National Public Ra-

dio. The regulation was issued through the Department of Labor BRIDGES to extend overtime eligibility for 4 million Americans.

It would have required employers to pay time-anda-half to employees who worked more than 40 hours per week and earned less than $47,476 per year, according to NPR. For Lubbock’s small business population, this injunction is saving a lot of businesses from hardship, Beth Bridges, chairwomen for the Lubbock Chamber of Commerce, said in an official statement.

“If the overtime rule changes had taken effect, it would have resulted in significant new costs — more than $1 billion according to the Congressional Budget Office — and it would have caused many disruptions in how

work gets done,” Bridges said in the statement. “Furthermore, the rule would have reduced workplace flexibility, remote electronic access to work and opportunities for career advancement.”

Though pleased with the ruling, members of the chamber see this as nothing more than a slight pause as of now, Eddie McBride, CEO and president of the Lubbock Chamber of Commerce, said.

One would consider this a regulatory timeout that has the potential to be reinstated.

But because Donald Trump will take office in January, there is the potential that this ruling can be swept under the rug and never be seen again, McBride said.

As of now, Trump has stated he would do away with many of the regulations regarding the energy sector and the environment, McBride said. So, the members of the chamber are rather optimistic.

“So, his administration

would look to probably adjust this rule, maybe not do away with it entirely,” McBride said. “Because, it’s, all in all, raising the threshold for when non-exempt employees receive overtime pay. That’s not a bad thing to consider doing.”

Originally, the measure was to be enacted to jolt citizens with lower income, according to NPR. However, others noted it would force businesses to pay additional salaries they would not be able to afford. In essence, there was a lot of fear that instead of creating new jobs, there would be lots of layoffs.

Currently, the threshold for employees sits at more than $22,000 per year for employees to become eligible for overtime pay. It is a matter of overreach from the Department of Labor, McBride said.

“I think that they do need to adjust the threshold that would allow for a higher threshold to be created to allow more folks to be considered in this category for overtime pay,” McBride said.

“I think it’s good interest in business.

What they need to do is to have an agreed-upon MCBRIDE amount, instead of it being as low as it is.”

With an issue like this, there needs to be a mathematical approach that keeps the small business sector in mind, McBride said. If the changes were to have gone into effect, it would cost businesses around the country more than $1 billion.

This would mean small businesses would be forced to lay people off, make people go from full-time positions to part-time positions or increase prices for customers, McBride said.

Most Lubbock businesses have many employees who fall below that threshold and receive overtime pay, McBride said. Lubbock businesses with less than 50 employees are about 85-90

percent of the businesses around the area.

“That would have a negative effect on our economic system,” McBride said. “And I don’t think the Department of Labor realized the extent of what the impact was going to be.”

There needs to be changes, McBride said. However, if changes are to come, they need to be more analytical instead of mandates set by the government.

A good possibility would have the threshold raised incrementally, instead of huge jumps once every now and again, McBride said.

“There was an overwhelming response by businessindustry supporters from large associations to the U.S. chamber, including 40 local chamber of commerces from the state of Texas,” McBride said. “And the reason why we oppose the rules is because it was going to have a significant detrimental effect on the overall business climate.”

FOOD

centage is estimated to be even higher.

“Going hungry negatively impacts a student’s in-class performance, studies have shown,” Robertson said.

“Most commonly, international and first-generation full-time students struggle with food insecurity the most, although it is an issue that can affect anyone.”

About 10 percent of its 46.5 million adult clients are college students, according to Feeding America’s 2014 Hunger in America report. Organizations like the South Plains Food Bank have worked to partner with universities across the country to develop and maintain on-campus food pantries for students.

One of the biggest problems these organizations face when attempting to combat hunger on college campuses is the stigma of being labeled needy or poor, Clare Cady, director of the College and University Food Bank Alliance, said. This shroud of shame creates difficulty when counting hungry college students, and distortion may occur while formulating statistics.

“We want college students to know that there’s nothing wrong with asking for help,” Cady said. “Campus food pantries are made to serve the students, and there is nothing wrong with using the resources that are available for you.”

Malnutrition is also a ma-

jor concern for the Food Bank Alliance, she said. The term food insecurity refers to the lack of nutritional food to an individual or household, and food banks frequently look for nutritional value when taking donations.

For many college students, nutritional value is an unaffordable luxury, Cady said. The most affordable dining options are usually the least nutritious, and studies have shown mildly foodinsecure students are 30 percent more likely to be overweight than their food-secure counterparts.

“Often, a person struggling with food security has to make undesirable dining choices,” she said. “The

dollar menu at Taco Bell is far cheaper and faster than buying and cooking a healthy meal.”

The most effective way to combat the nationwide issue of college hunger is to provide campuses with the resources necessary to accommodate their students, Cady said. College food pantries and food drives designed to raise insecurity awareness are becoming more common as the problem continues to be addressed by the society.

“The most important thing a person can do to help fight college hunger is to donate to a local food bank,” she said. “Giving any little bit you can helps immensely.”

CONTINUED FROM PG. 1 The South Plains Food Bank is affiliated with Feeding America, a national food bank network dedicated to combating hunger in the United States, according to the South Plains Food Bank website. The network consists of more than 200 food banks and 60,000 food pantries, serving all 50 states.

It is estimated that 14.5 percent of U.S. households experience food insecurity on a regular basis, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention website. For college students, that per-

veteran of the North Dakota Highway Patrol and National Guard who was elected to his first term as sheriff about two years ago. “It’s just not going to happen.”

More than 525 people from across the country have been arrested during months of protests over the fourstate, $3.8 billion pipeline, all here in support of the Standing Rock Sioux tribe that’s fighting the project because it believes it threatens drinking water and cultural sites on their nearby reservation.

His department’s job of policing the protesters — the vast majority who’ve been camping on federal land that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers says it will close in December for safety concerns — has cost the county more than $8 million, even with help from the state Highway Patrol and officers from various states. Their tactics, however, have drawn criticism from Standing Rock’s tribal leader as well as protest organizers and celebrities.

Standing Rock Sioux Chair-

man Dave Archambault said he and Kirchmeier have met many times and each meeting has been tense and unproductive.

“I don’t think aggressive force is necessary and he thinks it’s necessary,” Archambault said.

In the most recent clash between police and protesters, which was near the path of the pipeline and happened last week, officers used tear gas, rubber bullets and large water hoses in freezing weather. Organizers said at least 17 protesters were taken to the hospital, some for hypothermia and one for a serious arm injury, and one officer was injured.

Archambault called the confrontation an act of terror against unarmed protesters that was sanctioned

by Kirchmeier.

“His job is to protect and serve, not to inflict harm and hurt,” Archambault said.

But Kirchmeier, who has the backing of the state’s Republican governor and attorney general, defended officers’ actions. He and other authorities said officers were assaulted with rocks, bottles and burning logs.

NEW YORK (AP) — Thanksgiving weekend shoppers picked up hot toys, TVs and new Apple products, buying both online and in stores, but spent less per person because of rampant discounting that they’ve come to demand.

Once all the receipts are in, customers look to have spent an average of $289.19 over the fourday weekend, down nearly 3.5 percent from a year ago, based on a survey by the National Retail Federation. The pressure on prices was especially strong on products like TVs. More than 154 million customers said they had shopped or planned to this Thanksgiving weekend, up from 151 million a year ago, according to the survey conducted Friday and Saturday by the National Retail Federation and Prosper Insights & Analytics. And more were doing it online, as about 99.1 million went to the stores and 108.5 million shopped online.

Carmen Cunnyngham of Kansas City, Kansas, was in Denver on Sunday and decided to stop at the mall to pick up a new pair of Ugg boots for her daughter. They were discounted at Nordstrom, which is one of her favorite places to shop.

She said she got a bit of a late start this year because of the presidential election, so she’s been looking online for deals and jumping when she sees them.

“I’m trying to make sure I get the wish lists in and look at those and shop and do what I can before Christmas gets here,” she said.

The drop in spending underscores how even with an improving economy, many shoppers are still focused on habit developed during the Great Recession. They’re fixated on deals and more readily using technology to find them whenever they want to buy. More than a third of customers surveyed by the NRF said that all of their purchases were on sale, up 11 percent from a year ago.

The Thanksgiving weekend kicks off the holiday shopping season but stores have increasingly started their sales earlier. Stores had been wary about being left with a lot of inventory they would have to discount to get off the shelves, and so started the season with less on hand.

That will help preserve profit margins, but they’ve still planned aggressive promotions to grab shoppers.

Trans-Siberian Orchestra performs at Tech

By ALEXIS CARDEN Staff Writer

Because of the response from the fans last year during the 2015 Winter Tour, Trans-Siberian Orchestra decided to go on the road again this year with a new tour.

Texas Tech students, along with members of the Lubbock community, gathered on Saturday night in the United Supermarkets Arena to see the Trans-Siberian Orchestra perform a concert on its winter tour.

E’liza Flores, a junior at South Plains Academy from Lubbock, said she was excited to watch the TransSiberian Orchestra for the first time that night.

“I had never heard of them before, honestly,” Flores said, “but I’m really excited for the show, and I want to see what they are all about.”

Nick Alvarez, a junior computer science major from Lubbock, said he had seen the orchestra

SILENT RAIDERS CONTINUED FROM PG. 1

Alex-Marie Baez, a senior psychology major from New Port Richey, Florida, is the current secretary of Silent Raiders and joined the club after attending a silent dinner organized by the club.

From that event, Baez said she learned many new signs and realized being involved with the deaf community is the best way to apply the language and learn more about the regional culture.

Baez learned American Sign Language at Tech.

She can sign well and carry conversations with other American Sign Language students at her own level, she said.

But, sometimes it is harder with native signers because they have different ways of signing, Baez said.

“This organization is what has inspired me to take on my current career path,” Baez said.

“I am currently on track for law school where I intend to get my Juris Doctor to work as a hearing advocate for the deaf community and work toward becoming a certified courtroom interpreter.”

Baez said her receptive skills have improved since being part of the Silent Raiders. The world should be more accepting and understanding of the deaf community, she said.

The club builds a bridge between the deaf community and other students who want to learn their language and culture, Baez said.

Every member is accepting, supportive and helpful, Baez said.

There is a taboo when it comes to disabilities, but education is the key, Baez said. Sometimes people are unsure of how to act around someone with a disability because they do not want to be rude or make the person uncomfortable.

“Educating yourself on the disability, the culture (and) the language can help remove that fear,” she said. “The deaf do not believe they are disabled.

They are just as capable as hearing people, and I believe in that too.”

Rowland Wallerstein, a senior wind energy major from Harlingen, said he became interested in deaf culture after seeing Shoshannah Stern, a deaf actress, speak on the show “Lie to Me” a few years ago. Since then, Wallerstein has been learning American Sign Language, and joining the Silent Raiders was a way to make friends and further his understanding on the deaf community.

perform a long time ago.

“I haven’t been able to see them in a while,” Alvarez said, “and it’s a new tour. So, it’s exciting.”

The Trans-Siberian Orchestra’s tour for this season is called The Ghosts of Christmas Eve. The band began its show with many of its hit songs, such as “Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24,” “Good King Joy,” “This Christmas Day” and “Music Box Blues,” along with many others.

The band created its concert to feel like a story.

Between every song, the back screens would light up and display clips from a movie that was narrated by someone on stage.

Each time the video stopped, the performers would sing a song that dealt with that particular scene of the movie. “(Trans-Siberian Orchestra’s) music is awesome, first of all,” Alvarez said, “and the fact that they weave the story in

through their music is freaking cool.”

According to the TransSiberian Orchestra’s website, The Ghosts of Christmas Eve tour was an experiment to see if it could take something made for a TV screen and make it come to life on a stage.

According to the website, the band had never done anything like this.

Alvarez said he was excited when he found out the Trans-Siberian Orchestra was performing in Lubbock this year.

“It’s been four years where they went off and around to random places in Texas but not Lubbock,” Alvarez said.

“Lubbock is a pretty big venue. They should come here more often.”

This concert doubled as a family get-together for Alvarez. He said his family usually comes to town during concerts like this, and his family got to enjoy the show with him that night.

Wallerstein said he had to get over the initial fear of embarrassing himself and messing up a sign.

The story of how he met the first deaf person in his life is an example of this effort.

During that time, Wallerstein’s roommate had suggested he learn a more “useful” language than American Sign Language because the odds of coming across a Spanish speaker were higher than meeting a deaf person.

However, the day after that conversation, Wallerstein said he went to work and saw a girl taking a picture of the menu and scrolling around on her phone. When the girl ordered, Wallerstein heard a little accent so he signed, “You deaf?” and she responded affirmatively with a smile.

Wallerstein said he did not know enough American Sign Language to take her order. However, he was ecstatic to prove his roommate wrong in less than 24 hours, and from that day he started becoming more comfortable at interacting with deaf people.

Alixandria Gavin, a freshman special education and English dual major from Austin, is a deaf

student and treasurer for Silent Raiders. Although profoundly deaf, Gavin said she did not learn American Sign Language or become involved in the deaf community until high school.

“Learning sign language for me was like being able to breathe easier,” Gavin said. “I could communicate with peers of similar disabilities. I was exposed to the deaf culture and a whole different world with many opportunities, one of them being able to participate in the 2013 Deaflympics.”

American Sign Language depends on facial expressions and actions, she said. Because of the different grammatical structures and sentence syntax, deaf people are often looked down upon.

Nevertheless, Gavin is proud of being deaf and eager to help others learn the language.

“I believe that through exposure and depending on the willingness of the hearing community, our deaf culture can be understood as a large, prideful community of our own with our own language and full of successful deaf doctors, performers, athletes, lawyers and businessmen,” Gavin said.

Gratitude remains instrumental in daily life

T

o know gratitude is to be a dog that knows the hand that feeds it and — with this knowledge — grasps that hand rather than biting it.

Yes, this is the first step in the process of gratitude. This first step is to accept there is truly a hand that feeds. There is a next step though.

The second is far more difficult to embrace.

Multiple countries observe a nationwide expression of Thanksgiving.

Some of these holidays are born of harvest festivities; others are rooted in pagan ritual; a few are derived from political machinations.

Regardless of any

perceived benefit, it is more than courtesy to say “Thank you.”

In “ A S i m pl e A c t of Gratitude: How Learni n g t o S a y T h a n k Yo u Changed My Life,” John Kralik shares the transformation that occurred in his life when he embraced the concept of gratitude.

Gratitude is transformative in many ways.

As far the wisdom of rulers goes, the giving of thanks at least once a year

acknowledges any bounty realized in their domains comes from a source other than themselves.

Do they — these rulers — recognize the necessity to take the next step: step No. 2?

It isn’t sufficient to just be thankful for what we are blessed with. One can be thankful all the way to the bank, and there the bounty remains.

Gratitude is desiring for your neighbor what you desire for yourself.

This is called “sharing.”

Remember the behavior our mothers tried to instill in us when we were barely as tall as her knees? You know, when

she told us to share our toys, our candy and our other favorite things?

We did it because we loved our moms and, well, disobedience may not have yielded a desired response.

It is always possible that your neighbors may not want what you want for yourself.

They will have their own wants and needs.

This doesn’t remove the obligation we have to demonstrate our gratitude by doing something for someone else.

The pay-it-forward movement has merit. This is when we do something for someone else with the charge being totally on our own tab.

Volunteering in your

community is one way to do that. Leaving a sack of groceries on someone’s doorstep anonymously could be another.

Your community is the one from which you derive benefits, such as schools, grocery stores, roadways, entertainment, etc.

Even if your native community is in another locale — foreign or domestic — it is still important to give back in some way to your current community.

This is the onus inherent in gratitude, nothing more and nothing less.

Annual Thanksgiving festivities are an opportunity to enjoy family and friends in a setting that

brings joy to the heart and builds memories. Memories which serve to tie the years together.

Realistically, we’re not limited to an annual holiday to appreciate things that life sends our way.

Every one of us embraces gratitude to differing degrees and expresses it in different ways.

The important thing is to remember to appreciate what we have today that we didn’t have yesterday and to value such things.

And most importantly, take every opportunity to express the gratefulness that we feel. tjones@dailytoreador.com

Stairmaster vital to achieving ideal physical state

H

uman natural selection has always favored larger buttocks.

H o w e v e r, t h i s l a r g e buttocks our species prefers seems to be getting bigger and bigger.

Observant humans have begun to see the common activity of stair walking enhances this evolutionary marker of superiority.

Much like a strong jaw line, large breasts, proper facial symmetry or good birthing hips, large firm buttocks have become an issue of paramount importance for mate selection.

Markers like large breasts notify a potential suitor that said woman is well-equipped to feed her young.

While this reasoning is straight forward, the shift

Austin Martin is a graduate student studying kinesiology from Dallas.

toward larger butts is not as self-explanatory.

Originally, our butts got to the size they are because larger glute muscles show enhanced ability to sprint, possibly away from an attacking lion when considering one’s fight-or-flight response.

Also, a large derriere provides excess energy storage from which a fetus can acquire nutrition, should times get hard and food become scarce.

However, the extreme size humans now prefer can be directly traced to an event 24 years ago.

This event — as you might have speculated — is Sir

M i x - a - L o t ’s h i t s i n g l e “Baby Got Back.”

Evolutionary scientists have called this audio masterpiece a critical turning point.

This song is just as important to the human race as the industrial revolution was to England, possibly more so.

You can either get on board with this trend or voluntarily banish yourself from the gene pool.

Yet, how can one get on board? Remember how I mentioned earlier that stair climbing seems to help craft larger buttocks.

Now, humans have invented a machine that directly mirrors this activity: the Stairmaster.

However, some humans

do not wish to mirror realworld stair climbing with this machine.

You have most likely seen the people holding on for dear life as the Stairmaster underneath churns at a speed much too fast for them.

These people are lying to themselves and denying their butts a good workout.

Imagine this: We all know those walkers that old people use.

Well, let’s have one magically float upward at a 45-degree angle.

Wi t h t h i s m a g i c a l walker, you can hold on as you rise with your feet dragging below.

Don’t worry if you are not exerting any effort, this magical walker will

continue to rise steadily.

Now you can climb the greatest staircase imaginable with no trouble at all.

You have most likely seen the people holding on for dear life as the Stairmaster underneath churns at a speed much too fast for them.

That sounds ideal right? It’s working out without working.

The sad reality is this magical walker will never exist; ergo, this false Stair-

master behavior will never mirror a real-world activity. But, more importantly, these people are not going to get a good glute exercise.

Instead, they are preforming a rather shabby form of isometric exercise for the hand and upper body.

Woefully, these people are confusing themselves and will never reach their goal of acquiring a large round bottom.

Most importantly, the small buttocks these individuals possess will leave them without a mate in their prime mating years.

So, do yourself a favor.

Hop on a Stairmaster, use it properly, enhance your buttocks and spread your seed. opinions@dailytoreador.com

Tech drops championship game to No. 21 Miami

By ALEXA BOUTWELL Staff Writer

In the Miami Thanksgiving Tournament championship, the Texas Tech women’s basketball team fell short, 74-56, to No. 21 Miami on Sunday after defeating Fordham, 59-50, in the tournament opener on Friday in Coral Gables, Florida.

Freshman guard Arella Guirantes had her second double-double of the season, scoring 19 points, 12 rebounds, two steals and two blocks in the win over Fordham.

Junior center Jada Terry recorded her second double-double as well, scoring 17 points and grabbing 10 rebounds to help secure the win.

At the start of the game against Fordham, the Lady Raiders trailed in the first two quarters of play, 21-20.

Tech bounced back in the third quarter, putting up 21 points and holding the Lady Rams to 15 points.

In the fourth quarter, Tech allowed the Lady Rams to close in on the team with four minutes left in the game, 47-44.

After a foul called on Fordham, Guirantes was

sent to the line to shoot two free throws. She put the game out of reach for the Lady Rams after she went 2-2 from the line to increase the lead, 59-50, with 16 seconds left.

In the loss to Miami, Guirantes was the offensive leader for Tech, scoring 14 points, three rebounds and two assists.

Te r r y w a s a b o a r d snatcher, coming up with a team high of six rebounds.

She was right behind Guirantes in scoring, with 11 points and one block in the game.

This was Guirantes’ and Terry’s fourth double-figure game of the season.

In the first quarter, the Lady Hurricanes got to a small lead, 13-9, over the Lady Raiders. Miami was first to get on the board after a fast break layup from senior forward Keyona Hayes.

It took more than three minutes for Tech to score after being down by six in the first quarter. After several attempts, Terry put one in the net to get the Lady Raiders on the board, 6-2.

With two minutes left, Guirantes drained one

from downtown to put Tech within one, 8-7. The Lady Raiders put up a strong effort in the first quarter to put themselves down by four points.

In the second quarter, it was Tech that drained the first shot with a layup from Terry to close in on Miami, 13-11. The Lady Raiders were unable to make their shots in the second quarter and ended the first half of play down by eight, 31-23.

After trailing Miami, the entire game, the Lady Raiders came out strong in the third quarter, going on a 6-0 run to pull within one of Miami, 31-30.

Sophomore guard Recee’ Caldwell was the one to close the gap after she drained a 3-pointer.

After a foul called on the Lady Hurricanes, Caldwell was sent to the line to attempt two free throw shots.

She went 1-2 from the line to give Tech the lead, 32-31.

The Lady Raiders played efficiently in the third quarter, trailing the Lady Hurricanes by seven, 50-43.

The fourth quarter of action is where Miami ran off with the game. In

Despite losing to the Lady Hurricanes, the Lady Raiders shot 21-52 from the floor for a percentage of 40.4. From downtown, the Lady Raiders shot 6-19 for 31.6 percent. The team could only go 50 percent from the free-throw line, making 8-16.

A positive takeaway

from the game is the amount of boards the team was able to grab. Tech came up with a total of 33 rebounds as well as five total steals.

One flaw in the Lady Raiders’ game was the number of times they gave the ball up. The team had a total of 15 turnovers against the Lady Hurricanes, which proved to be costly as it allowed the Lady Hurricanes to run

the fast break and score.

The loss to No. 21 Miami puts the Lady Raiders record at 3-2 for the season.

The Lady Hurricanes now have a record of 5-1 after the win over Tech.

The Lady Raiders will attempt to rally from this loss and get back to action at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday as they host Prairie View A&M in the United Supermarkets Arena. @ABoutwellDT

COLUMN

Working for The DT defined time at Tech

F

or most of my time at Tech, I’ve worked as a writer for The Daily Toreador.

Unlike all the jobs I had before joining the publication, I looked forward to the next day I’d come in to work. Covering sports never felt like an actual job.

Keeping up with Texas Tech sports was always something I’d do even if I didn’t get paid. To say working for The DT was great would undermine the experiences and relationships I’ve built over the past three years.

Rather than talk about my experiences as a writer for The Daily Toreador, I’d like to thank some of the people who made my job and time at Tech memorable.

Most of the people I list still work for The DT and will continue to work there for the foreseeable future. Promising futures await the people this column addresses, and I look forward to seeing what amazing work they do along the way.

While I started as a news writer after former editor-inchief Carson Turner hired me, Everett Corder definitely extended my time at The DT by taking me in as part of the sports staff.

Along with letting me write about anything sports-related, Corder reintroduced Wiffle Ball into my life and shared with me random baseball tidbits I can always use when I’m in need to start a conversation.

Despite our different takes on Houston sports, I somehow started a friendship with the ever-loud and clumsy David Gay. Our love of hip-hop music has really been the one thing

Diego Gaytan is a senior technical communications English major from Austin.

that has kept our friendship together, and although Gay listens to some dude named Paul Wall, we can at least agree Pusha T, Kendrick Lamar and UGK made some of the best music to ride in the car and listen to.

Always backing me up whenever Gay makes a blasphemous stance on anything sports-related, I know Jeremy Krakosky, Kristen Barton and Brandon Soliz have my back to refute Gay. More than just being willing to call out Gay on how wrong he is on the state of Houston Texans football, Krakosky, Soliz and Barton can always spark a great conversation.

While Krakosky has gone on to work outside of journalism since graduating, Soliz and Barton have written so many great articles, it makes me jealous.

Lastly, I’d like to thank Michael Cantu for continuing to work as the news editor. As a former news writer, I know Cantu’s job endues an unmeasurable amount of stress since news never stops happening. To put it simply, I’m proud of you, Cantu.

If you ever pick up a Thursday package, see Anthony Estolano’s cover and read the story in the package, you’ll know what I’m talking about. Making a newspaper doesn’t come together with ease. So, anybody willing to spend countless hours in a

newsroom, keeping the publication running, I appreciate all the work you do.

Studying at Tech and working for The DT has made my college years into something I never imagined.

While I’m leaving a job I’ve enjoyed immensely, I’m certain

I’ll stay in touch with the people I’ve met along the way.

The DT has been a home for me and without working there, I don’t know if I would have ever met the wonderful friends I met during my time. @DGaytanDT

Tech defeats Baylor to end season

By ARIANA HERNANDEZ Staff Writer

After five seasons of falling short to the Baylor Bears, the Texas Tech Red Raiders brought home the Texas Farm Bureau Insurance Shootout trophy on Friday.

The Red Raiders traveled to Arlington to compete against the Bears in Tech’s final contest of the season.

The Red Raiders strived to come out of the game with a win after losing to Iowa State 66-10 the previous week. Fortunately for Tech, the team beat Baylor, 54-35.

Throughout the game, Tech’s defense put on a show for Red Raider fans. Tech made four takeaways and three turnovers on downs happen within the first half of the game.

Tech junior quarterback Patrick Mahomes II completed 30 passes on 46 attempts and had six touchdowns.

Sophomore wide receiver Keke Coutee was an impactful player for the Red Raiders. Coutee caught eight passes for 221 yards and two touchdowns. Freshman running back Da’Leon Ward also was a key player for Tech. Ward ran the ball 20 times for 82 yards and had one touchdown.

On the defensive side of things, sophomore defensive back Jah’Shawn Johnson had 10 total tackles. Five of those 10 were solo, and he also had one sack, one forced fumble and one interception.

FOOTBALL

CONTINUED FROM PG. 1 Before Sunday, the Red Raiders took on the Baylor Bears on Friday and pulled out a 54-35 victory over the Bears.

After the game, Kingsbury was asked if he felt he could come back and correct mistakes after finishing the season at 5-7.

Kingsbury said the Tech football program is the only thing that matters to him.

“You know, I don’t have a family. I don’t have a lot

back Zach Smith took over for senior quarterback Seth Russel after Russel suffered a season-ending ankle injury during Baylor’s contest against the Oklahoma Sooners on Nov. 12.

Smith completed 30 passes on 46 attempts and had three touchdowns.

In the first drive of the first quarter, Baylor had possession of the ball and acted.

The Bears stormed down the field and within a span of two minutes scored a touchdown.

Smith connected with junior wide receiver K.D. Cannon for a 53-yard touchdown pass. The score stood with Baylor taking an early lead, 7-0, with 12:43 that remained in the first quarter.

Tech answered the Baylor touchdown with a touchdown of its own in Tech’s first possession of the ball in the first quarter. Mahomes was able to find Coutee for a 35-yard touchdown pass. The Tech drive lasted a little more than four minutes and covered 77 yards in 10 plays.

With a little more than six minutes remaining in the first quarter, redshirt freshman wide receiver Blake Lynch fumbled the ball, and Tech senior linebacker Luke Stice recovered it for the Red Raiders.

Tech was quick to act on the recovery and found the end zone with 6:09 left in the first quarter. Mahomes found junior wide receiver Dylan Cantrell downfield for a 40-yard touchdown pass.

The punt for an extra point was missed. Even with the

missed extra point, Tech led Baylor, 13-7.

After Tech took possession of the ball in its third drive of the first quarter, the Red Raiders extended their lead to 20-7 at the end of the first quarter.

Ward ran the ball into the end zone for five yards.

Tech’s offense scored with a little around nine and a half minutes that remained in the second quarter. Mahomes threw a long pass and connected with redshirt freshman wide receiver Quan Shorts for an 81-yard touchdown pass.

Tech led Baylor, 27-7.

The Bears were unable to respond and were stopped for the third time on downs in the next Baylor drive.

In the following drive, the Red Raiders scored with a little more than seven minutes that remained in the second quarter. Mahomes found Coutee for his second touchdown of the evening for an 80-yard touchdown pass.

Tech led the Bears, 34-7.

Baylor answered Tech’s touchdown with a score of its own after the Bears traveled down the field in their touchdown drive of five plays for 65 yards.

Tech was quick to act on the Baylor touchdown and scored its own with a little under five minutes that remained in the first half, bringing the Tech lead to 41-14. Sophomore wide receiver Jonathan Giles caught a 62-yard touchdown pass from Mahomes.

Tech stripped the ball away in the following drive for its second turnover of the evening.

of friends out there in Lubbock,” Kingsbury said. “And that’s all I do, is work on this football team and this program and try to build something special.”

Kingsbury was then dealt the question about any outside pressure he felt before kickoff against Baylor.

He said he goes out every time to lead his team to a win for fans and alumni. “ Ye a h , I d o n ’ t k n o w about pressure. I just hate losing, and I feel bad about when Texas Tech doesn’t win because it means a lot to me,” Kingsbury said. “I know it means a lot to our

fan base and our student body and our alumni, and when you’re a part of that, you wear it. And so yeah, more than anything, that’s what I feel.”

Kingsbury will have the final option to decide if he wants to bring in another coach to help with his day-today activities, Hocutt said.

One interesting thing to watch out for is the title of offensive coordinator.

Right now, Eric Morris is the offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach.

However, as mentioned, Kingsbury will call the shots on offense.

Malik Jenkins, Douglas Coleman and D.J. Polite-Bray tackle Oklahoma State running back Justice Hill during the Red Raiders’ game against Oklahoma State on Nov. 12. Tech defeated Baylor 54-35 to end the season with a record of 5-7.

However, Tech’s offense was unable to respond to its turnover and could not make anything happen with the ball in its following possession.

Likewise, the Baylor offense was forced into its first 3-and-out of the game the next drive. Tech’s offense tried to follow up its lead.

However, the Red Raiders were unable to execute for their second drive in a row.

The Bears finished the first half of the game with a 21-yard touchdown pass to sophomore wide receiver Ishmael Zamora from Smith, making the score, 41-21.

At the beginning of the third quarter, in Tech’s 12th

possession of the night, Tech scored after Mahomes connected with Cantrell for a 6-yard touchdown pass, extending the Tech lead to 4821. The touchdown drive included 13 plays for 75 yards.

Baylor responded with a touchdown of its own after Williams ran in the ball for two yards, making the Tech lead 20-points for the second time that evening. The score stood at 48-28.

Tech was unable to execute and come out with a touchdown in the following drive. However, sophomore kicker Clayton Hatfield made a successful 31-yard field goal attempt to extend the Tech

lead to 51-28 with a little under six minutes that remained in the third quarter.

Tech made a turnover happen when Baylor was on Tech’s 2-yard line. Tech stripped the ball away, and Johnson recovered the ball.

Baylor came out to a quick start at the start of the third quarter after a 9-yard touchdown pass to Cannon from Smith with 14:36 left in the fourth quarter, making the score 51-35.

Hatfield added three points to the score with 11 minutes left, and the Red Raiders finished the game with a win against Baylor, 54-35.

Kingsbury could reach out to bring others in to the program to help with that as he focuses more on defensive situations with defensive coordinator David Gibbs.

Gibbs, whose contract expires on Jan. 4, 2017, according to the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal.

Hocutt said Tech has the championship-caliber offense, but the defense needs work. He said he hopes to see Gibbs return to continue building the program, which saw young talent emerge this season.

“It’s what I see in the

environment, in the culture taking place within Texas Tech football, that I still believe that the foundation is there for success,” Hocutt said. “That being said, none of us are happy, believe me, with standing here at a 5-7 season. Our season is over.

You turn in the pads in November. That’s not a good thing. Don’t plan to be in this position again.”

Hocutt said if Tech is offered to play in a bowl game, he would need to have a lengthy conversation about it.

H o w e v e r, h e s a i d h e feels a bowl game is earned

and deserved, but he believes a 5-7 team should not be rewarded, meaning the Tech football season is done.

“Personally, I’m not a fan of 5-7 teams getting an invitation to a bowl game,” Hocutt said. “I think bowl game invitations are a reward for a successful football season.

That being said, if that was an opportunity that presented itself, I guess it would require a conversation, but it wouldn’t be a conversation that I would be excited to have.”
