Deante Lindsay brings length, pedigree, and upside to Texas Tech’s secondary
A 6-foot-1 freshman CB from Ada, Oklahoma, Deante Lindsay arrived at Texas Tech as a consensus three-star and a top-40 cornerback nationally in the 2025 class, which makes him a legit upside play rather than just a warm body on the depth chart. His frame and recruiting profile suggest press-man potential, and the buzz around him is more about projection, competitiveness, and fit than raw box-score production. If a staff wants a long, developmental corner with room to grow into a real Big 12 cover piece, Lindsay is the kind of athlete worth betting on.
