IRVING, TX -- Tommy Tuberville wore a suit with a red and black striped tie and a Texas Tech lapel to Big 12 media day. That alone showed how much things have changed at Texas Tech.

Mike Leach is gone and so are his casual, wacky ways - on and
off the field.

Tuberville plans to keep a passing offense, but there's going to
be more running. More of an emphasis on defense, too. He's also
bringing together the guys from both sides of the ball more often
to encourage team unity.

Tuberville seemingly stole one page from Leach's playbook by
speaking out against the conference office, drawing a public
reprimand. He joked Tuesday that it was a remnant from being
encouraged to speak his mind as a TV analyst the last few years.
