A New Chapter for the Red Raiders
Paramount+ has partnered with Skydance Sports to produce a four‑episode docuseries that will chronicle the Texas Tech football program as it prepares for the upcoming season. The series is slated to debut before the first game, giving viewers an early glimpse of the work underway.
At the center of the project is head coach Joey McGuire, who is using the offseason to reshape the team’s identity and culture. The documentary follows his efforts to instill a new philosophy while the players navigate demanding training regimens and personal growth.
The Red Raiders are riding the momentum of a 12‑2 campaign that culminated in a Big 12 championship and their inaugural appearance in the College Football Playoff. That historic run has heightened expectations and intensified the spotlight on the program.
Texas Tech’s fanbase is renowned for its fervent support, and the upcoming series promises to capture that energy. By offering behind‑the‑scenes access, the filmmakers aim to showcase the passion and pursuit of excellence that define the university’s football culture.
The production has been in development since January, reflecting a coordinated effort between the university, the streaming platform and the production company. Industry observers expect the docuseries to further elevate the school’s profile and to reinforce its ambition of contending for another Big 12 title and a CFP berth in the 2026 season.
The documentary will give fans an inside look at the program's passion and pursuit of excellence, underscoring a broader trend of collegiate sports storytelling that blends entertainment with athletic development.
