Texas Tech head coach Kliff Kingsbury doesn't have much information surrounding Jakeem Grant's involvement in an off-campus shooting.

Kingsbury said no decision has been made on whether Grant will play Saturday against TCU, according to Nicholas Talbot and Sarah Rafique of the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal.

"(We are) going to take a look at him today, but I'm hoping (he can play)," Kingsbury said, adding that he believes Grant received stitches around his chin after suffering minor lacerations.

During his weekly Monday teleconference, Kingsbury said he didn't have much to go off with regards to what happened, but that he had been in contact with Grant.

"I was mainly concerned about Jakeem and that he's OK," Kingsbury said. "The authorities are handling that (investigation) side of it."
