Texas Tech RB Cam'Ron Valdez Commits to North Texas

Valdez a Dynamic Threat

Texas Tech running back Cam'Ron Valdez has announced his commitment to North Texas. Valdez, a 3-star recruit, emerged as a dynamic threat in the Red Raiders' backfield over the past two seasons.

All-Purpose Ability

Valdez is known for his versatility, making an impact as a runner, receiver, and returner. Last season, he rushed for 634 yards and five touchdowns while also catching 30 passes for 324 yards and three TDs. His ability to make plays in various ways will be a valuable asset for North Texas.

North Texas' Gain

North Texas head coach Seth Littrell expressed excitement about Valdez's commitment. The Mean Green have been seeking a dynamic playmaker out of the backfield, and Valdez fits the bill. His all-around ability and experience in a Power Five conference will be crucial for North Texas as they aim to improve their offense.

Washington State Loss

Valdez's departure is a blow to the Texas Tech offense. The Red Raiders will need to find a replacement for his production and versatility. Despite losing Valdez, Texas Tech has a solid group of running backs, including Tahj Brooks and SaRodorick Thompson, who will be relied upon to step up in 2023.
