Quote from Bronco7454 on April 21, 2023, 9:35 amNo, this is not about Will Farrar who is now a recruiting assistant at Boise State and also started on the O-line for Boise State for the last two seasons. But Farrar also played for Texas Tech before he transferred to Boise State.
This is about Ethan Carde who is a graduate of Texas Tech and in the transfer portal. Carde is listed on the Texas Tech roster at 6' 8" 320 lbs.

Carde played in 13 of the 14 Texas Tech football games last season as a back-up Offensive Tackle. The only game he did not play in last season was the regular season final game vs Oklahoma. During the 2021 season he played in 7 games with 2 starts for Texas Tech. During the shortened 2020 season he played in all 10 games including 7 starts. Prior to playing for Texas Tech he played one season for Coffeyville Community College in Coffeyville, Kansas.
In other words Farrar and Carde played on the same offensive line in 2020 for Texas Tech.

Quote from Bronco7454 on April 21, 2023, 3:48 pmApparently but he does have 4 other offers from Marshall, Florida International, Eastern Kentucky and another school I can't recall right this minute. Oh wait - Texas State I think.

Quote from BroncoChief on April 21, 2023, 10:18 pmVery underwhelming competitive offers. But, I guess if he wants to play the other offers might look better. I don’t see him as anything but a reserve at this point.

No offense intended but I sincerely hope that HE is not reading what has been said here about him. I know I would not appreciate someone saying this about me.

Quote from BSUaddict on April 23, 2023, 1:32 amThat's a big dude and his versatility at that size is a added bonus. We still have a hole to fill at LT and it never hurts to have a 1-2 guys on the depth chart who can play that swing OL role. That seems to be our thing with Avalos as the coach is recruiting versatile OL and not guys who are only used to playing just 1 spot and he fits that to a tee.

No offense intended either but its kind of silly to get bummed out cause a dude doesn't hold offers from power 5 schools (yet). Is he coachable? Is he a good person? Will he elevate our team and OL room? That's what we should care about. Our coaching staffs over the years have proven that we are a elite at player development. So if they feel that a guy is worth offering a spot to, I'm going to trust them that they are going to get the most out of that player.

Quote from Bronco7454 on April 23, 2023, 7:02 amWhat I know for SURE about this young man is BOISE STATE HAS OFFERED HIM A SCHOLARSHIP. I put that in all caps because, to me, that is what's most important here. So please don't take it to mean I'm "screaming" at anyone here.
Secondly he started 9 games in his first two seasons at Texas Tech as an Offensive Tackle - when he was a Sophomore. & a Junior. And that's playing in the Big 12 conference.
Lastly he played in 30 games in 3 seasons at Texas Tech (as well as an unknown number of games he played in during his one year at a community college). So he is very definitely an experienced player

Quote from BroncoChief on April 23, 2023, 10:12 amNo offense taken and am not throwing shade on him, I am merely pointing out that in IMO it appears he will be a serviceable reserve. Doesn’t mean he can’t earn a starting spot. BSU has a way of finding and developing outstanding starters from those underrated players. I certainly hope he is one too. Until proven otherwise, I don’t see him starting. Go Broncos!
