Kliff Kingsbury Confirms Suspensions Lifted for Five Texas Tech Players
The four Texas Tech players who were suspended indefinitely last month after being arrested for some late-night troubles have been reinstated to the program.
Kingsbury confirmed the news in a discussion with friend of the website, Jarret Johnson, of 247Sports, saying, “they served their suspension previously and their punishment, so we got them back out there getting some reps and get them back in the mix here this week, and then take it from there.”
