As sometimes happens, life and career gets in the way of those extra things we do in our lives. Of course one of those extra things for me is photographing Tech football. This past Wednesday was our last viewing period and a break down in one of my irrigation systems on the farm and a personal issue got in the way of me getting this photo gallery. My apologies for the lateness. On another note, I wrote the following on Wednesday evening and after watching interviews of Tech coaches and episode 3 of the Brand, I felt like i was right about what I was seeing on the practice field during fall camp. its exciting and can't wait to get on the field in two weeks to get images of the game and the first look at the Masked Rider coming out of the south end zone in a different place than we have ever seen before.

After landing a three-star tight end on Saturday, Brian Kelly pulled off a masterclass as he flipped a four-star cornerback commitment from Texas to LSU.
Kade Phillips is a 6-foot-1, 185-pound, four-star cornerback from Missouri City, Texas, where he plays for Hightower High School. The Fort Bend Hightower Hurricanes look to improve on their 12-2 season last year as they start their season against Clear Falls.
Phillips becomes the 24th commit of the 2025 recruiting class and the second cornerback commitment of the class joining five-star DJ Pickett from Zephyrhills, Florida. The Tigers 2025 class is currently ranked as the No. 3 class in the country, only trailing Ohio State and Alabama.
For the past few seasons, Kelly has had to depend on players from the transfer portal to fill his secondary. It appears as though he may be shifting from that to prep players to make a huge impact in the back end of his defense.

STYLES (LIKELY) SIEZES STARTING JOB. The biggest question on defense entering camp was who would be the Buckeyes' starting weak-side linebacker. All signs point to junior Sonny Styles getting the nod. However, classmate and fellow former 5-star recruit, C.J. Hicks, is going to play a lot regardless of whether he starts or not. Hicks is the best blitzer on the team according to several of his teammates and coaches. But the 6-foot-4, 235-pound Styles has found a home at WILL linebacker and appears headed for a breakout season.
