Projected depth chart

Kicker: Trey Wolff, Sr.; Gino Garcia, Jr.

Punter: Austin McNamara, Sr.; Brook Honore’, Fr.

Deep snapper: Jackson Knotts, So.; Henry Teeter, Sr. or Haydon Wiginton, Fr. or Jacob Mauch, So.

Kick returner: Xavier White, Sr. or Chadarius Townsend, Sr. or Marquis Waters, Sr. or Myles Price, Jr.

Punt returner: Adrian Frye, Sr.; Drew Hocutt, So.; Coy Eakin, Fr.

In a nutshell: Tech returns one of the nation’s top punters and his deep snapper, as well as several other experienced special-teams pieces. The question is whether the Red Raiders can lose one of the Big 12’s best kickers of 2021 — both in terms of accuracy and coming through under pressure — and not miss a beat.
