LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) — Texas Tech has added another graduate transfer, with former Utah State cornerback Ja'Marcus Ingram joining his former coach in the Big 12 Conference.

Ingram went through his first practice with the Red Raiders on Tuesday, 11 days before the season opener.

He is immediately eligible to play for Texas Tech after earning a degree in three years from Utah State, where he started 15 games the past two seasons for new Texas Tech coach Matt Wells.

Ingram is the sixth graduate transfer to join the Red Raiders this summer. He is one of three of those transfers with two seasons of eligibility remaining.

Wells spent the past six seasons at Utah State before leaving his alma mater for Texas Tech last November.
