Wells said at the start of this fall's camp that there was no question Alex Bowman was in line to take the first snap, and it was the sophomore quarterback's job “to solidify that role and extend his lead. It's up to him to play well.” (AP Photo/Ralph Freso, File)

FILE - In this Sept. 14, 2019, file photo, Texas Tech quarterback Alan Bowman (10) looks for a receiver during the second half of the team's NCAA college football game against Arizona in Tucson, Ariz. Bowman is ready for a fresh start as Texas Tech's quarterback. This time, he'd like to be playing at the end of a full season. Bowman likely could have returned from a broken collarbone to play in Texas Tech's final two games last season. He opted instead to save a year of eligibility and turn his focus toward 2020.
